We have a maytag neptune mah5500bww washer that would go through the complete wash cycle and then get to the spin portion of the cycle and silently skip from minute 7 to minute 0 without really doing much. Clothes come out wet after washing them because washer cannot reach spin cycle speeds due to faulty balance switch.

Do something about it. Don t stand for this kind of appliance misbehavior. It turns out that the washer thought it was continuously out of balance because the inertial unbalance switch was not working. As it spins it will simultaneously throw water out of the appliance through the drain hose which empties into a sink or drain pipe.

Troubleshooting your front loading maytag neptune washer can be as simple as checking the plug or your outlet for power or making sure that the door is tightly closed.
