Got a Maytag Neptune, purchased new in 2004 or so.  Getting an error code of "nF", which says it means it ain't getting water.  Checked the hoses for kinks and made sure the taps were on......GTG.  Ain't got a hairy idea what's wrong with it.

Got a service call, they said they would be here tomorrow between 0800-1700.  Da-amn..........

Looking for a recommendation for someone that can look at it tonight, or early in the morning............or at least during a more narrow time window.

Thanks.

Semper Fi!

Sounds like you've got a scope stuck in there. You missing one?

I don't know if he works on the side but he can probably help you trouble shoot.

Have you checked to see if the screens are clogged on both ends of the hoses. ??

Thanks guys.  I had already pulled all the hoses and such...........nothing stuck.

have you checked the water inlet control valve?  Is it stuck closed or not getting a signal to open.  If the control valve is bad it's an easy fix.

Wife had to have that fancy front loader huh?
If either side of valve is not letting water in then it's either valve and or the control board
No way of telling without getting into it with a meter.
8-5 appointment? Sears or a&e?

Pull connection to water solenoid, call for water, check voltage at leads. OHM out solenoid to make sure it's not open. You access it by just removing the top cover.

I paid thru the arse for a Neptune in 1998.  Getting rid of it was the best idea I've had in ages!

Damn washer ate pc boards monthly...

Well my wife just called me and said our washing machine stopped working. She said that the water isn't drainingduring the spin cycle and that the tub acts like it doesn't  want to spin. She also says that there is burning rubber smell coming from it. I'm guessing a belt is bad, maybe even the pump? It's a Frigidaire built in 1999...

Shep, you are forgetting one of the most basic rules of home repair. Very few problems cant be solved by a properly placed charge of high explosives.

That's about where I'm at right now!  

I recently put over $3000 total in my 2 vehicles, which killed the Nightforce scope I was fixing to buy for my JP LRP-07.  Ended up going with a different scope for now, I'll have to upgrade later.  Usually I tell folks not to do that, but when I upgrade the old scope will go to the flattop precision AR in .223 I'm gonna put together for my daughter.

Fixing my truck...........new tires on the Lexus..........new battery for the Lexus...........now the washer............

Step 1: take washing machine to open field
Step 2: fill with tannerite
Step 3: ????
Step 4: profit

They do have a belt.....but it should still be draining even if it was broke.....that year range used a electric water pump....belt could brake and it still drain. Drain water and pop front off. Take hose loose from drain pump and you will prob find something in it

I've got a whirlpool duet I bought in 2008. It's leaking from the front door. You can just watch the water trickle out at the bottom. We have to keep a towel down to wash clothes.

Ok try this at your own risk......open door....take it and tweak it in at the bottom some....hold top and push at the bottom...just a little bit....then see if it leaks

Clean the drain holes by the front door and use CLR to clean the scale off the door "glass". Just a little buildup on the door glass where it touches the seal will cause it to leak. Once cleaned, wipe the glass down after every use.

Repaired our washer 2 months ago, but I'm enjoying reading this post and learning new tricks, troubleshooting, ect..., can always learn something new.

Scope stuck!  I missed your post til now, Phil. How else do you expect me to clean those delicate lenses?!

I wasn't home when the repairman came to the house, I'd already left for work.  Not sure what the problem was, but got a text from the wife. It's only costing $165 to repair, but the part won't be in until 12/13. Da-amn........be doing laundry at the in-law's!
