Problem
Clothes washer water leak. Narrowed down to drain hose between tub and pump.
Tools
Screwdriver, pliers , "lug wrench" screwdriver and headband lamp (for better lighting).
Repair & Advice
Puddle of water formed under a 32 year old Maytag clothes washer that never had a prior problem. YouTube video showed how to remove front panel and isolate problems on old Maytag washers. Determined it was a leak on drain hose from tub to pump. Researched part number and ordered. Purchased clamps at local hardware store. While it was an easy repair, it did take a couple hours, being a newbie! Hardest part was tightening the clamps sufficiently. Had to get help from husband who used a sort of lug wrench tool for better leverage. The headband light really helped to see while leaving both hands free to work. One trick husband used was to tip the clothes washer back so he could get better access to tighten the clamps. We're seniors, bending, kneeling etc. is more challenging!

Repair & Advice
I found water leaking from the washer and removed the front panel to find the tub to pump hose cracked at the top. I ordered the replacement hose which arrived in a timely fashion and replaced it with a screwdriver. The replacement part was identical to the one removed. Simple repair!

Problem
Leak from drum to drain pump - replacing a 40 year old hose.
Tools
Screwdriver, hammer.
Repair & Advice
This OEM part replaced a 41 year old Maytag hose. These machines are built to last 100 years if parts remain available.- no mother boards, just a lot of steel. Easy repair, remove the cover, loosen hose clamps, tap to loosen, replace hose and replace front cover. Part was an OEM. Make sure you read up on which parts have to be OEMs, (belts for example - as slight differences are huge).
