Maytag Neptune washer motor/motor control circuit board ... my board just fried - is your washer still working? wondering how longthe conversion fix will last. ... Other times it will run a completecycle without any malfunctions.

turn back to spin,
and see if you get a lock light,
if your lock is working you will need a new motor control,, and maybe a new motor

My Maytag Neptune MAH5500B or MAH5500BWW wouldn't spin either. It would go all the way through the wash cycle, agitation and all, as mentioned before, the spin cycle would start at the 9 minute mark, and get down to the 7 minutes then drop directly to 0 with no spin at all.

After hours of investigation it turned out the balance load switch was corroded. This switch is accessible through the front panel of the washer. The door must be removed and the front panel comes off, this switch is directly under the wash drum where there is a little electrical plug and switch which rests on top of stabilizer styrofoam. The connection was being made but there was green corrosion, and evidently the switch box was corroded within. When bypassed, the washer spun perfectly.

Hope this helps someone else out there - I was horrified to think that this washer would end up more landfill as it wouldn't be worthwhile to pay hundreds for a new motor control board as had been suggested was the problem.

it could be a bad or stuck tub displacement switch or a broken wire to the switch

d sounds as if your having a timer issue here. not recognizing the end of cycle and entering a new one ( bad timer).. as far as time of unlocking this is normal, theres a wax motor holding the door shut for i believe 3 min's.. and the water sloshing sounds is also normal they use a "water filled" balance ring around the perimeter of tub to help with the overall balance of machine

Change your timer. or timer sensor. behind your knobs

HAVE YOU CHECKED THE MOTOR CONTROL BOARD?IT IS LOCATED INSIDE THE FRONT RIGHT BOTTOM OF WASHER BEHIND FRONT PANEL,LET ME KNOW IF YOU FIND ANYTHING-MIKE

You need to replace 2 parts here.The control board(located in timer panel)2.replace the wax motor.

Another computer generated flaw.The worst thing is alot of times that "flaw" can be a costly one                       

I've had the same problem with a Neptune MAH3000. I replaced the mother board to no avail. I replaced the timer control to no avail. I then replaced the door lock assembly (wax motor, door switch, etc.) and problem solved. Luckily, I had another machine that I could rob parts from.
