door latch motor on the MAH5500BWW model

Here is a question I get often... 

"Just wondering if the door latch motor on the MAH5500BWW model was a concern and needed changed. Thanks, Doug " 

Hi Doug, you are good... Your Maytag Neptune door latch assembly was replaced with a one piece assembly and does not have the defective 12002535 wax motor in it. To see if your Neptune is affected by the defective door latch wax motor, see http://www.neptunewaxmotor.com/. 

In addition, when your Neptune starts screaming when high speed spinning it is time for bearings and a seal kit... I can save you $800 to repair your Neptune or even more if you would have decided to replace it with a new front loader set... You can also rent the famous tony tool which makes changing your bearings a snap! It even includes access to a step by step video. See http://www.neptunebearing.com/ for details.

Until next time...
