Maytag Neptune Front Load Spinner Support - W10181639

Maytag Neptune Front Load Spinner Support - W10181639

Hi Neptuners!


Does your Neptune Sound like a rock tumbler? If so, it is possible one of the three bolts snapped on your spinner support where it bolts to the stainless steel inner tub. In these cases, you can try to get a new stainless steel bolt and nut and see if you can repair it... but if it does not work you can replace your spinner support.


I just put up a Maytag Neptune Spinner site where you can purchase it directly. The new W10181639 spinner support even comes with a 'revised lip' seal kit so if you need bearings, see Neptune Help to order replacement bearings for your solid door panel Neptune without the 12002022 seal kit and save some money.

A blast from the 80's Tech Revisited

Wow, I just took a trip back into the 80's... What a ride those years were with advancing technology? See http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/80s-tech4.htm to see for yourself. I was in high school when a lot of this technology was emerging and I found it to be fascinating... and expensive at first. 

They failed to mention my first computer, the Sinclair ZX81. It was a kit I purchased for $99 and built that I learned 'Basic' programming on. The Sinclair basic was 'token' based, which is a little different than the regular basic and it was designed to save memory. When you only have 4K bytes (before the 16K ram pack) you had to use memory sparingly. 

I wonder if the Maytag Neptune front loader will make it into the 90's Tech Revisited article? 

Speaking of Neptunes, if your Maytag Neptune needs TLC then see www.neptunewaxmotor.com and www.neptunebearing.com for repair information, parts, moral support, etc.

Until next time...
