washer want agitate or fill with water works in spin cycle

I have a maytag washer that works in spin cycle but when put into wash cycle it will not fill with water nor agitate i can hear motor humming

Most likely the problem is a bad water inlet valve.

  • The part number for the water valve is AP244856

Here are the break down diagrams for the Maytag washer http://www.appliancepartspros.com/partsearch/model.aspx?diagram_id=866912&&model_id=28883
