I started the washer and found a piece of clothing that had fallen on my way to the washer. Ran back to washer to put it in and found I couldn't open the door. However, the washer stopped working after I pulled on the door. When I attempted to restart, i.e., by pulling plug, shutting washer off, waiting an hour or two, it would appear to start and I am able to open the door. The water that was in there is gone, but the washer won't spin and when it tries to start you hear a "whirr, whirr" sound and a click but nothing happens?

Sounds very much like you damaged the door lock mechanism.

To Sidfink43,
Thank you for getting back to me. If I damaged the door lock mechanism, is there some kind of replacement part?

Thank you,
Lexi

Yes.

Here is a link to the Maytag Service Manual for your model. Even though it does not say so, your model is discussed in detail at the back of the manual (Maytag is like that)

https://docs.google.com/fileview...OWNm&hl=en&pli=1

Do some testing if you can using the manual,and see what parts you need, and if you want to replace the door lock assembly you need to call in your order as there are several different versions, depending upon your serial number which you will need to have when you place the order.
