Well very good, glad you got it fixed and the price for parts was high, but your total repair cost was well below what you would have incurred if you had to have a service call.
Most people who make this repair find that their machine lasts for a good long time, hope yours does too.

Replaced board and wax motor, everything seems good. Is there anyone who would want old board to rebuild. My parts with shipping were $186. Sidfink43 thank you again for responding.

So, if your board is burned replacing it and the wax motors should fix things. However, the board is expensive and you may want to consider a new machine given the history of these older Maytag Neptunes.
To find a service manual for your machine do a Google search on Service Manual for Maytag Neptune and find the one with the fellow from WKRP on the cover. Have decided to fix it, at todays prices and economy just best for me now. I did talk to Maytag and they were willing to send someone out but no assurance I wouln't have to pay for service call and there would be several days delay. I will post again only if I have more difficulty. But there is an updated board and motor. CONTROL BOARD IS 22003010 not sure motor is absolute latest but 1200535 has black plunger. Thank you again for you replies.

You are looking for the Maytag Neptune MAH3000 manual, and your model is discussed in detail at the back of it. there is no diagnostic mode all manual settings. I opened it up and it is burnt worse than any example I have seen will a board and wax motor fix it? I will search for manua \l but don't really know where to start.
