Product review (5 stars): Your ATC Auto Load Sensing Switch may not have gone bad after all
Our Maytag Centenial washer would start agitating before it even filled up with water and would leave the clothes wet at the end of the cycle. After a little research on the web I found that the ATC-Auto Load Sensing switch was responsible for this. I also found a video on Youtube that shows how to open the control panel and access the switch. Instead of replacing the switch I decided to remove it and clean the electrical contacts with a product called Deoxit D5 (available on Amazon). I then re-installed the switch and the problem was all gone. It has been almost a month and the washing machine is working good as new.
