MLG2000A - Maytag Neptune Super Stack SL-3 1 - Select Wash/Rinse Water Temperature 2 - Select Options (Max Extract, Extra Rinse, Signa) 3 - Select Cycle 4 - Load the Clothes Washer (add detergent on top of the load in the tub, and additives [fabric softener, bleach] in their dispensers). 5 - Start the washer. This is according to the owner's manual I have. Has worked for 14 years for me.

There is a thermal fuse in the circuit between the dryer drive motor, and the dryer timer motor (control). It's physically located near the blower assembly. Whirlpool 33001762 Thermal Fuse AppliancePartsPros com There is a picture of it at this link. That's the only "fuse" I could find in the parts manual I have for the MLG2000AWW.

does it have a belt? broken belt?

You put the detergent directly on top of the clothes.

there is a micro switch half way up on left strut looking from front

hola por que cuando encho ropa a la lavora y le pongo el ciclo adecuado y a los 20 min o segundos me aparece un error f20 mi lavadora es maytag frontal ke puedo hacer????????

Tae the top of your washer look for the small black hoses buy the bleech out let pull of and blow through

If manually turning the timer allows it to spin and drain, then I would say the used timer installed was also defective. Try a new timer. You will save money if you get it online or go to an appliance parts store like "Mid-America Appliance" rather than Sears or the likes. Hope this helps.

It's either the fuse, heating element, thermal cut-off or thermostat

The intake valve may have debris under the plunger allowing the water to bypass the valve. If it fills up when not in use it is a sure sign of this. However, your issue sounds more like a clogged filter allowing drain water back in the drum after the cycle has ended

Motor, start capacitor, If its making a buzzing noise and the motor wont start most likely its the start capacitor.

Hi,
Here is a tip that I wrote about dryers and noises...

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,
I would gently suggest as a first step that you clean the drain motor/pump lint tray/filter. So many 'faults' are caused by blocked filters and many machines will not even go to rinse or spin or release the door lock if there is any water still left inside.
Here are my complete and generic guidance notes for checking both the drain motor filter and the drain motor ;-0)
If you are unsure where the filter is, it is often behind the front lower (kick) panel (or in some machines at the rear in an awkward position!). These panels are either held on by (plasic) screws or will just pull off. Most filters are held in by a round cover/knob. Sometimes the filter will not come out with the cover and you will have to persuade it to come out to play.

REMOVE POWER AND ENSURE YOU HAVE A WATER RECEPTACLE/RAGS TO SOAK UP THE WATER WHICH IS BOUND TO POUR OUT (alternatively use a wet vac as sensibly suggested by VinnyB1234!)
It's surprising what people have found in theirs! It is always worthwhile checking it on a regular basis.
Now- whilst the filter is removed it is normally possible to see the drain motor and ensure it is not jammed by a foreign object such as a needle or a toothpick. It should be able to be turned by hand/finger- the power IS OFF!
At this point it is also possible to test if the motor works. No clothes or water in the machine, select a spin cycle and put the power back on. You should be able to see the motor turning at some point, possibly straight away. Using something suitable like a glove see if it is easy to briefly slow the motor down. If it is easy then the motor is malfunctioning.

If this has assisted you please consider a 4 thumbs up for the rating.
Thanks and good luck!

hi gar.... sounds like your dryer vent pipe or outdoor vent is partially clogged with debris. thoroughly clean it out and it will work great once again. Joe

It is your transmission seal.

Hi christian742,


I highly recommend for you to read the Manual which came with the machine.
it should include detailed instructions on how to stop at the end cycle without pushing.

Is it beeping?

Have you checked to see if your belt is loose or worn?
