It fills correctly but when it gets to the spin cycle, it makes a really loud grinding type noise and will not spin, nor drain. Any help would be appreciated. Working on a small budget here. :) Rusty

Take it off and check it out, and check for any obstruction or damage in the pump. Here is a service manual which will show you how. http://www.servicematters.com/m...ibrary/docs/16026502.pdf and here is a tech bulletin on the new type of pump. Presumably Maytag redesigned the pump because of problems, and hopefully that is your problem, because otherwise you are looking at transmission/brake issues, which is not good. http://www.servicematters.com/m...ary/docs/ITDL-0031-B.pdf
