    Squirrley Maytag Neptune MAH3000AWW intermittent no spin

    So my 22 year old Maytag Neptune MAH3000AWW (Series 18) started acting up recently. Sometimes it would run through a cycle but more and more often it would either not spin out at the end or the timer would stop advancing and the machine would stop mid cycle. The first thing I did was to check...

    Where to find vintage NOS parts?

    Does anybody know of a source for vintage (1965-1980) parts for Maytag machines? I'm hoping to find NOS but would also be interested in excellent condition used parts. I am just starting a project to build a fully restored A806 using two A806's for parts that I got a smoking deal on from...

    Problem with Speed Queen AWN432

    About 6 months ago my sister was looking to purchase a new washing machine and dryer. The salesman at the appliance store had sold her on a GE set and she ordered them. I talked to her that evening and told her I thought she really would have been better off with a Speed Queen set. I...

    It is being advertised on CL as an A806 but I don't think it is.  It soesn't have the right number of buttons...

    Maytag Lineup {Atlantis, Bravos, Performa, DependableClean etc..}

    I know the Dependable Care Machines but I would like to understand these newer machines. Which ones are which? There are AmanaTags, WhirlTags (or Maypools), NorgeTags etc... Which ones are which? From reading here it seems that some of these are very good machines whereas some are garbage...

    Why did Maytag eliminate the Dependable Care Line?

    I believe these were amongst the best laundry appliances ever designed.  Their elegance was in their simplicity.  They were ultra durable, inexpensive and easy to work on.  They were the machines that made the Maytag repairman "Old Lonely".  They were almost universally respected as the "bullet...

    Maytag A506 groaning on start of spin

    Hi All,  I just purchased an old Maytag A506 machine.  The Machine seems to work well except that it makes a kind of groaning sound as the spin cycle starts up.  As the spin speed goes up, the groan goes up in pitch and down in volume until by the time it is up to full speed, it sounds fine and...

    WTB: Excellent condition LA806 $600.00 Phoenix

    Should have no leaks, no rust and a really smooth transmission. The backlight has to work. For an absolutely "mint" machine (no serious scratches, very little wear) I would pay $750.00 (shipped)

    Opinions on the early Maytag Neptunes

    I don't see too much discussion on these machines here which seems a bit strange since they are such a significant part of US laundry machine history. I have an old MAH3000AWW SN# 18XXX built in Dec 1997. It was a very problematic machine for the first 7 or 8 years I owned it. I had all of the...

    Maytag Neptune Control Boards (versions?)

    Over the years there have been several different part numbers for the control boards on the early Neptunes.  Part numbers like 22002988, 22002334 and 22002365 look like they are all interchangable.  I have an MHA3000AWW.  When I call the parts store to get a price for a control board, they tell...

    Best built modern washer?

    Some say Miele although I have heard that it can be difficult to get parts for them. Some say Speed Queen still makes machines with "old school" quality. I have heard a few say that if you buy a "commercial machine" (Maytag perhaps) like those intended for on premises laundry that you can still...

    Any permanent fix for Neptune bearing problem?

    When I say permanent, I mean at least a 10 year fix. I know there are ways to replace just the bearing and seal (without having to replace the entire outer tub) but the water still tends to get into the bearing and ruin it after a while. Is there any way to keep this from happening? My...

    Can anyone recommend a Classic Maytag?

    I am looking to purchase and restore an older dependable care (ie belt driven) washing machine. I want to use this machine for every day use. Back in the late 70's my family had an old machine that I think was an A108. This machine lasted for decades. So I guess I am trying to reproduce...
