Worked Fine
Quality.. OEM..At first, I thought the belt was too small, and couldn't possibly fit. After researching on-line, I found the installation trick from a guy named Jeff. Get the belt on as far as you can, zip tie to pulley, then rotate pulley till belt is fully around to bottom of pulley. Then snip off zip tie. Worked like a charm.

New belt for Neptune washer
The part arrived in a few days, it was over a week before I installed it. The old belt was still working. It took about 20 minutes to change it out. Works great. Thanks

Washer not draining some of the time resulting in the code ND being displayed.
The replacement of the drain pump was very easy. I will not go into detail, just follow the video installation provided on this site and you will have no problem.
I decided to replace the drive belt since I was into the back of the washer. The video on this site was spot on, however I did have to apply a lot of effort putting
... Read more the new one on. My old belt was stretched out considerably and at first thought I had a wrong replacement belt. Number on the belts confirmed it was correct. Just had to walk the belt on the larger pulley and it will fit.
The motor isolators went in with no problem ,but the drive belt went on very tight , your how to video shows how. Easy the belt went on , when I called your store I was told that is the only size belt for the machine model mah5500bww, Thank you Bill

Tight fit
Working from back of machine, slip old belt off drum pulley. Loosen 1/2" nut to remove drive motor from outer drum assembly. Work motor toward front of machine, while holding carefully, to slip out of old isolators. Remove worn isolators. Replace with new isolators (lip towards front of machine). Re-install motor with the nut/washer all t
... Read morehe way up against the stop for the least amount of pressure possible on belt tension..tighten bolt. (Believe me.. when you try to install the belt, it will still seem like the belt is not the right size and way too tight.).. It is, however, the correct belt. Have a zip-tie ready. Engage the new belt on the motor shaft pulley. The belt grooves should line up with the motor shaft grooves towards the end of the shaft. Grip the drum pulley and rotate counterclockwise while guiding the belt onto the pulley. At about 12 O'Clock, zip-tie the belt to the pulley.. then rotate ccw until installed.. (about 6 O'Clock). Snip off the zip-tie and your ready to go.

Loud noise
Beat on spline shaft until I gave up and trashed the washer. Bought new washer.
Washer was so loud in the spinning cycle it sounded like a jet was taking off
We took the washer completely apart. Replaced the bearings, pulley and belt. We decided to replace anything that involved the spinning cycle while we had it all apart. It was well worth the time and effort we put into it. It works like a chime and is very quiet . Silence is golden ! Hopefully it will work another 18 years.
after cutting my hand I installed masking tape around the opening on the back of the washer. All went well after that

Drains but doesn't spin, door lock does not engage.
Door locked light did not come on and did not have 120 VAC across the Wax Motor. Also the Wax Motor did not extend out to make contact with the Door Lock, Spin Enable Switch. General guidance is to replace drive belt and to replace Wax Motor along with the Door Lock, Spin Enable Switches (total of two limit switches). This did not corr

Replaced Resistor with new Carbon Film unit, rating of 3.9 K-ohms, 1/4 W and 5%. As a prcaution, replace the Triac (manufactue part number NTE5657), component identified as Q6, rating of 0.8 Amp, 600 VAC. Semiconductor parts must be obtained from somewhere other than Parts Select (unable to find in the small town I live in, I located on the internet at Mouser.com). Unit works great now.
I took off the rear panel and removed the hose clamps and electrical terminals, slid pump out of slot in bottom pan of washing machine. It only took minutes, this was part of a major overhaul. I replaced this as a precautionary measure. Great prices and quick service,
