Maytag Neptune Drain Pump Filter

Keep the machine draining correctly by cleaning the filter regularly.

Maytag neptune drain pump filter.

Maytag is one of the oldest appliance manufacturers in the united states and introduced their front loading model the maytag neptune in the early 2000s. The one thing that you have to watch out for in front load washers is that the pump drain filter where the water is siphoned out sometimes becomes clogged with debris from the washer. Open the dispenser drawer by pulling on the handle at the base of the washer. Clean the pump filter on a maytag washing machine by removing the front panel twisting the filter to open it removing any debris from the unit and reinstalling it.

A drain issue is the most common problem this washer gets. Perform the following procedure occasionally or every 6 months. The drain pump is rarely the issue but if you have a multimeter you can confirm whether or not it s getting 110 volts when it should be draining. They didn t start putting filters on maytag washers until after 2007 when maytag was bought out by whirlpool.
