Product review (5 stars): This motor/control board set was very easy to install
I had basically the same overall experience as another reviewer. We bought the Neptune Washer/Dryer set in either late 98 or early 99. The only problem before this was the "jet engine" tub bearing failure, which I fixed myself, rather than buying a whole new tub assembly.

This motor/control board set was very easy to install. It took about an hour in total, and I also replaced the belt as a preventative measure. The washer is now quieter than it has ever been, and as a bonus my wife is very happy because she loves the looks and footprint of these machines.

All it takes to save a few hundred bucks is this kit, basic mechanical skills, and a little patience. I highly recommend this kit if you are experiencing the same slow/no spin problems.
