Maytag washer

[Special K]

Maytag Atlantis Model #MAV8551AWQ Serial # 21122587CX the best part of 10 years old. At the end of the spin cycle it makes a squeak/squealing noise just prior to stopping. Any thoughts?

Hi,

Brake that slows/stops the tub from spinning does that...

...might get away with spraying in a little silicone spray as the tools and parts for these washers are becoming NLA.

Thanks for the help! My daughter will ride it into the sunset as tools necessary to repair are not available. Again I appreciate your help and advice. Regards,Special K!

If you can get a little spray ( just above the caution sticker ) into the brake, that will help with the noise.
