There are a few possible reasons why your Maytag MVWB880BW top-loading washer is vibrating and rocking during the spin cycle. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
1. Check the load: Make sure that the load is evenly distributed in the washer. Unevenly distributed or tightly packed loads can cause the washer to become unbalanced and vibrate. Try rearranging the load to ensure even distribution.
2. Check for objects caught in the drain system: Loose items such as coins or small objects can get caught in the washer's drain system, causing vibrations. Check the drain pump and remove any objects that may be causing the issue.
3. Check the washer's leveling: Even though you mentioned that the washer is level, double-check the leveling by using a level tool. Adjust the feet if necessary to ensure that all four feet are firmly in contact with the floor.
4. Check the floor: If the floor beneath the washer is not sturdy or level, it can contribute to vibrations. Make sure the floor is stable and not flexing or sagging. Placing a 3/4" (19 mm) piece of plywood under the washer can help reduce sound and vibrations if the floor is uneven.
If the issue persists after trying these troubleshooting steps, it is recommended to contact Maytag customer support or a qualified service technician for further assistance.
