Exclamation Spin Cycle/Bearing sound
Model Number: MLE2000AYW   Brand: Maytag   Age: 5 - 10 years   

My Neptune washer/dryer has had survice in the past, warrenty on motor and rubber lining. Now I have a very loud spin cycle. I think it is bearing noise. I have looked at the part diagram and see a support, part # ap4324795 but no bearing unless they are here. As a front loader it does not have bearings in the front and back of the drum.

I saw something about a tub and basket repacement here on the forum when if cames to front loaders.

Any help is apprecieated.

Jim

If you remove the belt from the spin basket pulley in the back of the washer, you should be able to feel the bad bearings by turning the pulley.
If bad, try to get it fixed soon as the increased load on the motor and drive electronics will eventually burn them out.
Go to my article in the Forum announcements section (replacing Neptune bearings). This is a rather involved repair, expensive if done by a pro.
