If you can't get the part from the company [use the contact information at https://www.contacthelp.com/maytag/customer-service ], you may be able to obtain the part number. Then, even without the part number, consider the following:

Try http://www.searspartsdirect.com/ [call if necessary] or https://encompass.com/.
Try another online parts source like http://www.ereplacementparts.com/ or https://www.partstore.com/
Contact local parts dealers and used appliance dealers, who might be able to supply or maybe fix the part
Use a search engine like Google's or Yahoo's
Try http://www.searchtempest.com/, which displays global listings from eBay, Craigslist, and other sources
Take the part you have to an appliance technician, who might possibly be able to fix or replace the part

(For option 5, you may want to use a free tracking program like https://www.followthatpage.com/ to save you from having to repeat your search over time.)
