Maytag Mbl2256kes Has A Life Of It's Own
Dear Sir, My unit came with the house I bought and we like it very much except the multible nosies it makes especially at night. If I owned a gun I would have shot it thinking it was an intruder. I pulled the unit away from the wall and took my leaf blower and cleaned under the the frig and still nothing has helped. I'm afraid of calling a Magtag Repair Man for fear he will run down the street when it acts up. Please tell me what preventive maintance I can do? it makes about 8 to 10 different sounds. Thank You in helping me in this matter.
