Washer not washing

my washer fills up water but starts making loud funny noises once it begins the washing cycle.,I noticed also that the there is no center movement inside that it usually does while washing. please help me…:frowning:

What is the complete model number of the washer?

maytag - model number:MAV6458AWW

Maytag - model number: MAV6458AWW

Tilt the washer back and remove the belt. Check how freely the pump pulley is moving in both directions. Replace the pump if it does not do it. Check the belt.

Here are the breakdown diagrams and http://www.appliancepartspros.com/parts-for-maytag-mav6458aww.html

I tilted back the washer and did a check on the parts mentioned(pulley and belt).,both parts seemed to be in good order and intact. The pulley is moving freely in both direction and the belt is still attached and doesn’t show any sign of tear…please help:confused:

Does the motor run?

Push down the agitator while the washer is on the wash cycle. Did you feel any oscillating?

Remove the agitator and check the splines inside the agitator and on the top of the transmission shaft. Make sure they are not stripped.
