Common failure areas on this model

The confirmed parts above group into a handful of failure areas. Here is what each points to and how to check it before you order anything.

Water inlet and drainage

Symptom: A washer that won't fill, fills slowly, won't drain, or leaves standing water in the tub.

Check: For fill problems, check the inlet valve's screen filters for sediment. For drain problems, check the pump for a jammed object and confirm the drain hose isn't kinked or looped too high.

Parts in this group on MAV8500AWQ: WP22002708 (Washer Water Inlet Valve), WP22003285 (Washer Tub-to-Pump Hose), WP22003410 (Corrugated Drain Hose), WP22002960 (Washer Fill Hose Screen).

Door, lid switches and latches

Symptom: The washer won't start, or it stops mid-cycle as soon as the lid is opened.

Check: Listen for an audible click when the lid closes. No click, or a visibly cracked plastic tab on the latch, points to this part.

Parts in this group on MAV8500AWQ: 22001967 (Lid Switch), WP22002753 (Washer Lid Hinge Bearing), WP22002751 (Washer Lid Hinge Pin), W10814230 (Lid Switch Actuating Cam), 12001908 (Lid Switch Assembly).

General hardware and mounting parts

Symptom: A small mechanical or mounting part has failed, cracked, or gone missing.

Check: Compare the physical shape and mounting points to the original piece, and confirm the exact part number against your model plate before ordering.

Parts in this group on MAV8500AWQ: WP22002835 (Washer Bleach Cup (White)), WP22002754 (Plunger), 22002853 (Hose Clamp), 356615 (Transmission & Seal Kit), WP3556551 (Washer Hub Seal Nut), 12001598 (Tub Seal & Bearing Kit), 12001561 (Washer Spin Bearing), W10219156 (Tub Seal and Bearing Kit), WP353571 (Motor Pivot Slide), WP356918 (Brake Stator), WP352328 (Top Tub Seal), WP352205 (Spin Bearing), WP353570 (Motor Pivot Washer), 12001562 (Washer Lower Bearing), WP21002026 (Snubber Ring), WP21001915 (Tub to Pump Hose), 216169 (Clamp,hose-i), 257047 (Flat Washer), WP22003062 (CORD- POWE), WP339967 (Motor Insolator Pad), WP339946 (Motor Insolator Pad), WP257854 (Retaining Ring).

Drive system (belts, pulleys, motors)

Symptom: A drum or tub that won't turn, a burning-rubber smell, or a loud thump or squeal during a cycle.

Check: With power off, turn the drum or tub by hand -- resistance or grinding points to the motor or a bearing, and a cracked, glazed, or snapped belt is visible once the cabinet is open.

Parts in this group on MAV8500AWQ: 21001516 (Motor with Pulley), WP22003483 (Washer Drive Belt 52 Inches Long), 22004297 (Pulley), 21001506 (Washer Drive Motor), WP21001950 (Motor with Pulley), WP356465 (Drain Pump with Pulley), 12002213 (Transmission Pulley and Bearing Kit).

Storage, trim and cosmetic hardware

Symptom: A cracked shelf, broken door bin, worn hinge, or missing trim piece -- cosmetic and storage wear rather than a functional breakdown.

Check: Match the physical dimensions and mounting tabs of the old part before ordering; these pieces are often model-specific even between visually similar models.

Parts in this group on MAV8500AWQ: 22002838 (Clamp Spring), 31001041 (Screw), WP21001910 (Brake Spring), WP257830 (Spacer Washer), WP22004376 (Motor Pivot Spring), 22001995 (Washer Screw), WP257220 (Cabinet Top Clip).

Suspension and tub hardware

Symptom: Excessive vibration, banging, or the machine "walking" during the spin cycle.

Check: Check that all leveling legs are actually contacting the floor, then inspect the suspension rods or springs for wear or a broken mount point.

Parts in this group on MAV8500AWQ: WP22004042 (Agitator Assembly), WP257941 (Washer Agitator Shaft Seal), WP21001598 (Suspension Spring), WP25001119 (Washer Leveling Leg and Pad), 352052 (Washer Leveling Leg Pin).

Controls, timers and wiring

Symptom: A cycle that doesn't advance, the wrong water level filling, an unresponsive display, or the washer not starting at all.

Check: Look for burn marks or a burnt smell near the board or terminals, and check whether buttons and knobs respond -- a unit that powers on but won't cycle often traces back to this group.

Parts in this group on MAV8500AWQ: 22001659 (Dryer Timer Knob), WP22001664 (Timer Knob Insert Cap), WP22001659 (Timer Knob Base).

Interior lighting

Symptom: The interior light doesn't turn on when the door opens.

Check: Confirm power is reaching the socket, then check the door-activated light switch before assuming the bulb itself is at fault.

Parts in this group on MAV8500AWQ: WP22001948 (Range Indicator Light Lens).

Before you buy

Match MAV8500AWQ exactly against the model and serial plate on the appliance itself before ordering anything — a single mismatched character can point to a different production run with different parts. Then check the part number printed or stamped on the part you are replacing against the part numbers in the table above; the printed number is the most reliable way to confirm fitment when a model has gone through multiple production runs. RepairKitHub does not sell parts directly — every part link above routes to an Amazon search for that part number so you can compare current listings and sellers yourself.

How to confirm this is your model

On most washers, the model and serial plate sits under the lid or on the back panel. Match every character exactly, including letters and dashes at the end — appliance model numbers often have similar prefixes but different suffixes for different production runs.
