Steve for Model Number 96 maytag jetclean portable Hello, I don't have power to the wax motor. I had bought this new but it was stored in someones garage for years. Upon plugging it in everything worked great. Now the detergent door doesn't open. Wax motor tests fine and I have no power to it at anytime. Upon closer inspection, a good deal of the insulation was chewed off by mice at and around the timer. I replaced all bad sections but still do not have power to wax motor. The timer itself goes through all the cycles. Would it be the timer that needs to be replaced or is there some type of relay of some sorts that needs replacing?
Answer Steve, You will want to check the wiring between the wax motor and the timer to make sure that the mice did not chew through any wires. If the wires checks ok then the timer would most likely be the issue. Read More... Answered by AppliancePartsPros.com | Thursday, January 7, 2016
