Parts That Fix Maytag Washer MVWC465HW3 Leaking
The hose clamp is used to hold the water hose in place which will prevent the hose from leaking water. Sometimes the clamp may lose its ability to latch on, causing a leaking washer. For the installation, you will need a flat head screw driver to replace the clamp and a drill to access the screws to remove the front of the washer. Be careful if you do not have specific clamp pliers as the clamp could fly off. Once the front of the washer has been removed, take a quick look for water damage or any obvious signs of where the leak is coming from. If it is not obvious, run water to test.

This is an inlet valve for various washing machines. Inlet valves are responsible for opening and closing as needed, to allow water to enter the washer during the washing cycle. This inlet valve features a hot and cold-water valve, as well as the necessary wire harness to easily plug it in. Since inlet valves are an electrically controlled solenoid valve, they can fail either due to electrical failure such a short, or after long, extended use. If your inlet valve fails, your washer will likely relay an error code, or it simply will not wash your clothes due to the lack of water, and the valves will need to be replaced. Replacing this valve will require a screwdriver and/or socket wrench, and some disassembly of your washer will be necessary. This inlet valve is an individually sold OEM part and does not come with any accessories or other parts.
