If you can't get the part from the company [use the contact information here--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
- Enter your part number in 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.)
