Why are we not told to install some kind of insulation material between the circuit boards in the fountain controls. The boards are mounted so close together that there is the possability of shorting them out when buttons pushed. No material or instructions shipped with replacement board. I had to learn the hardway and now have to replace another new board. Part # 61003425.

Here is the breakdown for your appliance: Model MSD2957AEW

If you look at the the fountian breakdown they do show a barrier (number 21) in the picture, the fact that it does'nt come with the new board may indicate the manufacturer expects you to use the old one or if lost purchase a replacement.

Click here for barrier: Part Details - MAYTAG Barrier, part number: AP341132

Click for control board: Part Details - MAYTAG Control board, part number: AP341131

Aslo make sure everything was mounted correctly and no othe damage exists. The plastic has a history of warping and may affect the position of the parts.

The manufacturers do not consider parts of boards to be individual parts. They only sell the complete part, so they do not give the individual part ratings out.

Did you find out what the values of resistors are. I have 1 board which sparked and caught on fire part number of 77526-7. On an older board these components show the effects of over heating. I am trying to get Maytag to tell me the difference between the 2 boards and if there was an upgrade for safety reasons.

No I have not found the values. I am now the proud owner of two boards with the same componets fried. It will be a long time before I concider purchasing ANYTHING with Maytag on it.

Did you ever find out why the boards fried? I have replaced 2 and am reluctant to place the third in without knowing why this is happening. My door chute solenoid cooks as well each time. Mike

With reference to the comment that R12 and R14 resistors were assumedly "fried," did these two resistors blow during a single event failure? Or did R12 fail during an event on one board and then R14 fail on a second board? I've reversed engineered the circuit board and trying to figure out if the source of the problem originate on the control board or overheating of the solenoids. The solenoids will get very hot and cause shorted solenoid coil turns under continuous use and blow the control board, especially in an office environment.
