Maytag MAH55FLBWW Bearing and Seal Kit – Where to get parts

I was recently asked if the Maytag Neptune and 12002022 seal kit would work on the MAH55FLBWW Neptune and yes, it will work as well as the special Neptune Bearing tool kit rental.

It turns out that the Maytag Neptune and 12002022 seal kit works on all of the Maytag Neptune front loaders with solid door panel (no window).  Some compatible models include the MAH3000, MAH4000, MAH5500, MAH6500, MAH7500 and commercial solid door panels, too.

Both the Neptune bearing and tub seal kit and tool kit rental include DVD’s to help you save time and effort when changing your tub bearings. You will also learn what to look out for on your Neptune to prevent a future failure, too. The Neptune’s have been out there quite a while and the most of the problems are discovered. One of the disadvantages of a new machine is you will discover the manufacturing flaws and oversights of the design.

 

Why would a Neptune owner want to repair their washer is another question I get on occasion and there are a number of supporting answers.

• You could be one that desires to get the maximum life out of any appliance or machine such as a car before tossing it aside?
• You could enjoy the learning experience of repairing your machine or even showing your son how to do it so he can learn mechanical skills and save money on service calls when his appliance fail?
• Perhaps you don’t like to fill up the scrap yards with appliances that can be repaired?
• Maybe you don’t have the cash on hand to purchase a new washer and dryer set and don’t want to pay financing charges?
• If you have a stacker it will be expensive to replace since it is a washer and dryer combo unit?
• Enjoy your option to replace bearings and seal now - Future washers will probably have a plastic welded tub and you won’t have a choice to replace the bearings and seal anymore but will have to purchase an expensive tub assembly or new washer.

Can you think of any reasons why you would want to repair your Maytag Neptune washer? If so, leave them below…

The F35 Sud Error Code in the Whirlpool Duet Steam Washer - F35 Error Repair Kit

Is your Whirlpool Duet, Kenmore Elite or Maytag Epic washer’s CCU a prime candidate for the F35 Error fix? If you have this gray CCU design then you will need to upgrade your components before you start getting the F35 or SUD error codes. This F35 repair kit includes a step by step DVD that shows you how to replace the faulty components. Don’t worry, soldering is not too hard… I’ve had 1,000’s of Maytag Neptune owners replacing their Q6 triac and R11 resistor for the faulty brown tipped wax motors for over 8 years! The DVD shows you how to do it.

Your affected Whirlpool Duet, Kenmore Elite or Maytag Epic may last 2 years or it may last 8 years like mine did before it started displaying the F35 error code. You know it is gonna fail at the worst time so I recommend proactively replacing your faulty components and not have to worry about it anymore and get on with your life.

Don’t forget I also offer the replacement washer bearings at http://www.washerbearings.com where you can replace your worn tub seal and bearings and keep your machine running for less.

Have you been bitten by the F35 and SUD error bug? Leave a comment below and tell me about it!

F35 Error Code Kenmore Elite HE3T - Repair kit and advice

Wow! It finally happened… I started getting F35 errors and the SUD error on my Kenmore Elite HE3T Steam front load washer.

It started when I booted my Kenmore 70 series top loader washer and dryerfor the Kenmore Elite HE3T front load washer and dryer back on November 16, 2008. It is now July, 2015.

Here is the post on the new replacement HE3T front load washer and dryerback on November 30, 2008 that shows the brand new Kenmore Elite washer and dryer. Note: I had to stack them

The HE3T steam washer has been dutifully washing my clothes until now… The washer has been shutting down for the F35 and sud error. Every time I successfully got it to start a load I wondered if it was my last load.

The last load finally came last Thursday. No more resetting the machine by unplugging it, kicking it did not work either ;) .

I discovered a solution and I created a low cost F35 error kit to show you how to repair your Whirlpool Duet/Kenmore Elite/Maytag Epic washer if you have the F35 and sud code happening. This kit will work 99% of the time and save you an expensive service call because you can do yourself and save. If you call a service man he will replace your pressure sensor or the CCU control unit. Try the low cost kit first and see if it works for you!

This is not my first repair kit for washers by the way… I created the STAGE 1 kit for the Maytag Neptune front loaders back in 2006 and helped Neptune owners save over a million dollars in service calls by repairing their Neptune door latch wax motor issue. Later my clients started asking me why their Neptune sounds like a jet plane taking off when it enters the spin cycles. I created the Neptune bearing and 12002022 seal kit and offer a special tool kit for replacing the tub bearings and seal saving Neptune owners about $700 on that repair!

If you have suffered the F35 and SUD error leave your comments below on how you corrected the error.

Maytag Neptune Bearing Replacement - Cleaning Tips

As you're replacing your Maytag Neptune bearings and tub seal it would be a good time to perform some housekeeping while in there.

If your washer is over 8 years old you will probably have some soap and debris build up on the backside of the inner stainless steel basket and on the inside of the large outer tub. Some clients have used a power washer to carefully clean their Neptune washers. If you decide to use a power washer make sure you protect any electronic circuit boards and keep them dry. You have the motor control board down by the floor on the right side and the machine control board is located in the top console section.

Another option is to remove the outer tub from cabinet and take out back and spray it so you don't risk getting something wet that should not be wet.

The tub cover has a arched brush on the bottom have to help keep things from getting between the inner basket and outer tub. The brush will probably be gunky. You cannot replace just the brush as it is part of the tub cover.

For more information on replacing your Maytag Neptune bearings and seal see my www.neptunebearing.com page.

Feel free to leave feedback below and let me know how you decided to clean your Neptune washer while you had it apart during your bearing and tub seal change.
