James F North Pole , AK October 20, 2015 Appliance: Model OLDER MAYTAG NEPTUNE Leaking from tub assembly and intermittent motor operation Basically rebuilt the washer from the ground up. Spent more money than a new washer but we have been so happy with the way this machine has worked over the last 19 years figured it would be money well spent.

Sharon H Sunnyvale , CA November 01, 2019 Appliance: Maytag Washer- Horizontal Axis MAH3000AWW Washer would not drain Saw the YouTube videos and saw it could be 1 of 2 parts. I decided since one part, the motor-wax wasn't very expensive to get, I bought the motor-wax and also the drain pump assembly. Replaced the motor-wax and tried a load but it still wouldn't drain. Replaced the drain pump and bingo I now have a working washing machine. The biggest challenge was getting the drain tubing off the old drain pump. Found that heating the tube with a hairdryer made the tubing more pliable and it came off.
