Do-It-Yourself Story

This was on a Maytag Neptune mah5500bww model. I watched the short video and the repair was done in less than an hour. It's a vary simple repair with minimal amount of tools. Narrowing down the problem using the washers code system took about the same amount in time. I had already used an ohm meter on the motor windings and knew where the problem was. At that point I removed the motor control panel ( bottom front of unit ) and on inspection found a blown fuse, and a couple of resisters . No fixing this. I found the parts package with Appliance Pros at a very reasonable price. Also bought a new drum belt, which I didn't use , as the old one looked like new. On the shelf it went for now. I spent less than $ 300 and the unit is good as new and quieter. Best of all, my lovely wife is happy and I am the envy of her aerobics class. Thank you . PS: The part came within 2 days. Outstanding!
