Perhaps there is a US equivalent of this site that could help? I suppose folk in the States are afraid of giving advice though, in case they get sued. 😉

Re: maytag neptune

these have an ” unbalance ” switch attached to the top weight, and on some of the earlier versions there was a second one fitted to one of the rear struts.
worth checking these, as there was a tendancy for the switch to break off. also, dont rely on continuity check through the switches if you are testing – better to link out BUT ONLY FOR TESTING PURPOSES….. dont leave the switches linked out.
another weak point was the pcb in the control panel, fixed to the rear – occasionally you could find dry soldered joint there.
hope this helps, eddie
