The interior rubber ring around the entry has mold on the inside and outside of the rubber. Is there a replacement part for this? Is this a normal happening or question?
For model number MHW5500FC1
Hello Chad, Thank you for contacting us. I have researched the model you have provided and have found the part you are looking for is PartSelect Number PS11750814. It has been common and we suggest drying the Seal after use and leaving the door open a bit to let it air dry as well. We hope this helps.
Hello, My washing machine lets off a foul odor, my laundry room only has this smell when washing machine is operating. My husband says it is coming from a grill in the back, which is in the center. I have always dumped the remaining water from the dispenser then leave it and the washer door open when not in use and follow manufacturers advice using Affresh in the cleaning cycle when washer calls for it. Would you be able to tell me what is causing this foul odor and how I can eliminate it? Thank you! Donna

Hello Donna, Thank you for writing. This could be an indication something is clogged in the Drain Pump or one of the Hoses or Vent Pipe. We suggest removing them to clean them out and check of a blockage. We hope this helps!

Can’t find the drain plug
For model number MHW5500FC1
Hello Steve, Thank you for the question. Checking the model number provided, it does not list a Drain Plug. On the Drain Pump its self there is a "knob" that can be rotated to unscrew and remove to clean the filter for the pump. We hope this helps!

First some background. The door locked up the first time when appliance was less than one year old. The "Maytag Repairman" finally succeeded in getting the door open after propping up the front of the machine and fumbling around underneath for a period of time and then assured me the problem was solved. The problem recurred less than a year later, and I called another repairman who seemed to have an easier time of it, and charged $293.42 to replace the water level switch. About six months later the same problem recurred and I took the cover off the top of the machine and found there a booklet "For Service Technician's Use Only". VERY HELPFUL. Told how extremely easy it was to unlock door - took about five seconds. Replacing the switch itself involved pulling one tubing off and disconnecting one elec connection from old switch and replacing on new switch. Total cost $50 plus a few dollars for shipping.
Turned washer on its side. Pulled the bottom plate off. Then unplugged the electrical lines. Then unbolted the drain pump and bolted the new drain pump in. Then reversed the process.
Using the Torx Screwdriver, we removed the door from the unit. Then we removed all of the screws on the inside of the washer door. After that we flipped it over and opened it up exposing the inside. We couldn't separate them entirely because there was a screw under the latch piece that we couldn't figure out how to get to. However with all the screws out on the inside of the door, we did have enough room to open it up and access the place cover that holds the hinges in. Once we accessed that we removed the roller tips from the old unit and placed them on the new one. Then we reversed the process. With a couple screws in we realized we had put the hinge in reversed from what it needed to be, so we reopened it and switched it around. Then completed replacing all the screws and reattached it to the washer. It opens and closes perfectly and we saved a couple hundred dollars for sure, as the quote to come out had been a $150 trip charge.
