Sears Kenmore 721.80044700 microwave will not heat or rotate the turntable – How to

Sears Kenmore 721.80044700 microwave will not heat or rotate the turntable – How to





Safety: When working on any appliance make sure the power cord is disconnected and be aware that there could be devices that hold an electrical charge, ie. a capacitor.

I had a customer come to me and they have a 721.80044700 microwave and it will not heat or rotate the turntable. I took a look at it and noticed the front display panel was broken and loose if I twisted the panel the microwave would heat and rotate the turntable. That was great news! See the video for the rest!

I have repaired a number of appliances over the years and offer tub washer bearing and seal kits at my washer bearings site. Take a look if your washing machine sounds like a jet plane when ramping up into the high speed spin cycle.

Calico Critters Main Street Toy Shop Review - Calico Critters Fisher Cat Family




Calico Critters Main Street Toy Shop Review - Calico Critters Fisher Cat Family

Here is a review on the Calico Critters Main Street Toy Shop. I took the kiddos to get a toy for helping me with the side businesses recently and Chelsie decided on this Calico Critter Toy Shop which ran about $40. No batteries either :)

This cool Toy Shop does not include any Calico Critters. However, Chelsie already had the Calico Critters Fisher Cat Family and also the Calico Critters Fisher Cat Twins.

I love thanking my kiddos for helping me out on my Washer Bearings business and my new Actions for Success site where you can get set up with an instant easy blogging platform that allows direct videos from your smart phone! Which means no camera downloading to a PC, no time consuming video editing, no exporting to a MP4 video and then uploading to your blog or You tube. Heck, you don't even need a PC anymore just a smart phone can be used. You can even embed your You tube videos in your new easy to use blog for more traffic. You need a great blogging system to tell the world what you know... That's what I do! Thank you reading. Again that easy to use blog link is Actions for Success.

Bryan Adams was in Columbus Ohio November 22, 2013 for his Bare Bones Tour



Bryan Adams has some great tunes since back in the 80’s and he still sounds great! I’ll be honest… Do "Cuts like a knife", "Summer of 69", "Straight from the heart" resonate with you? 
I was skeptical when deciding to buy 2 tickets because as a bare bones tour he did not have a drummer and electric guitar and I was not sure how the songs would play out. I took action and bought two tickets anyway and I am grateful that I did. Tonia Tee and I loved the performance by Bryan Adams and Gary Breit (piano) and had a great time. We had great seats in row E on the left side of the stage. Watch video for more details.


When it comes to appliance repair and replacement parts please visit www.washerbearings.com/parts to order your replacement parts other than tub bearings and seal.

You can now spread your Neptune bearing replacement over 6 months, if needed



For my bearing and seal business I use PayPal, which accepts major credit cards, and they are offering an option when checking out for orders over $99, U.S. customers only, where you can get 6 monthly payments same as cash. So… if you've been putting off that bearing replacement now is the time for you to add more years to your Neptune’s life and spread the bill over 6 months with no interest.

See Neptune Bearing replacement and click on the PayPal banner on the left side for offer details.

If you decide to just purchase the Maytag Neptune Bearing and 12002022 Seal kit (not rent the tool kit) then you could add the door boot or belt so you exceed the $99 order amount to qualify. If you have an MAH3000, MAH4000 model you may want to order the bearing spacer just to have on hand in case yours is cracked or really corroded. If you decide to order a belt and don’t need it after inspecting your belt then simply send it back unopened for a refund. Don’t forget that a new bearing spacer is included with the Tony Tool kit rental so you don’t need to order one.

If you decide use the 6 months option just make sure you make payments to avoid any interest charges.

Other options if your Neptune washer needs bearings:

Use a local laundromat until you can save enough for bearing replacement
Buy a used unit on Craigslist
Visit relatives, neighbors and wash your clothes
Use washing board. See Neptune backup plan

Leave me a comment if you have another suggestion on where to launder your clothes until your machine can get fixed.

TIP: When sorting clothes check the pants pockets for loose change that can get into the pump and cause draining problems. 


I also offer other washer bearing and seal kits...  See Washer Bearings for more information.


Until next time...

Neptune Washer Door Seal Replacement - 12002533 Door Boot

Here is a video I created for you that demonstrates how to replace your smelly door boot. You can check Amazon with this link http://amzn.to/2z27idE to get more information.


Note: On earlier Neptune front load washers like the MAH3000 (and some of the MAH4000’s) shipped without a drain and drain hose. In the video I explain how you can add a 22004477 (hose) and a 22003074 (shield/guard) to your machine if it did not arrive with a drain. 

Here are the links so you can check availability:

You can also replace your Neptune bearings and seal when they start to fail and sound like a jet taking off during the spin cycle. See Neptune Bearing for more details about the bearing and 12002022 seal kit as well as the renting Neptune Bearing Tool Kit to save time and effort.

FAV6800 bearing and seal kit – washer parts

FAV6800 bearing and seal kit – washer parts
We now have available for your top loading Maytag washer the FAV6800 bearing and seal kit. There are two kits based on the first two digits of your serial number. You will need Kit 1 if your FAV6800 serial number starts with a 10 or 11. Kit 2 is for FAV6800 machines where the serial number starts with 12 and up.

In the past, you had to replace the inner basket and washer tub when the FAV6800 bearings fail or simply scrap the machine. Why scrap the machine when you can economically repair it and get additional years out of it? No special tools are required if you have a large crescent wrench. In most cases the tub seal will start leaking and that ultimately leads to the bearing failure.

Both bearing and seal kits include (2) bearings. Kit 1 includes the special one way bearing that should only let the inner basket rotate CCW by hand. See FAV6800 Bearing for more information.

www.neptunehelp.com has been offering Maytag washer repair parts for over 7 years now starting with the infamous 12002535 door latch wax motor failure on the Maytag Neptune front load washers. The Q6 and R11 repair kit we created allowed homeowners to repair their machine control board by soldering two components onto the machine control board thus saving a ton on repair bills.

After clients Maytag Neptune's started to sound like airplanes we created the Maytag Neptune Bearing and 12002022 Seal Kit. Then Whirlpool Duet and Kenmore Elite front load washer owners came to us and we created kits for their washing machines, too. Next we decided to create a new site called www.washerbearings.com as a starting point for all of the machines.

Keep in mind that if you need any appliance parts (not bearing and seal kits) you can visit www.washerbearings.com/parts to order replacement parts. Have your model number available when you visit.


Until next time...

Brody Stevens and Little Esther hangin with the Neptune Man

Here is a recent photo of me with Little Esther, Tonia, Brody Stevens. I bought a Groupon for a local show in the Columbus, Ohio area and it included a photo op. I thought... What the heck… Let’s get my photo taken with a couple of well known comedians. I will tell you more about Tonia later. She is creating a helpful website that will come in very handy for a lot of people.




Speaking of websites… If you have a washing machine… I offer special bearing and seal kits for when they start to get loud which usually indicates a tub bearing failure. I even rent a cool tool for the Maytag Neptune front load washers to help you save time and effort when replacing Neptune tub bearings. You can visit my main site at www.washerbearings.com which branches out to the different models.

Since I specialize in the tub bearing and seal kits you order the bearing and seal kits only from my sites and you can order other appliance parts by visiting www.washerbearings.com/parts to order replacement parts. Just have your model and serial numbers handy to help them look you your replacement parts.

I'm now officially called the "Neptune Man" and here is my song Vicky made for me http://neptunewasher.blogspot.com/2012/11/hey-neptune-man-song.html


Until next time…
