Does it fill when the machine is powered down?

If it does then the fill valve is stuck open and needs replacing

If it does not then you need to check the pressure switch and the air bell on the outer drum which probably has a ball of jellyfied soap in it.

If you take the back off you will see a thin plastic or rubber hose going from the bottom of the drum to a small flying saucer type object.

If you pull the hose off the bottom connection and blow into it you should hear a clicking noise from the pressure switch.

If it clicks then clean out the air bell and refit the hose .

If it does not click then get a new pressure switch

A repairman would test it live but that is not recommended for untrained people

My Maytag Neptune will not go into the spin cycle, instead the letters "nf " come on the display. What can I do to prevent this and to have the cycle completed?

Bonnie,

NF = No Fill the control board receives signaling for the washer during the water fill cycle. With most cycles the depth of water is around 3.5 inches in the wash basket. I know a Bulky Wash cycle selection will fill the wash tub to a high fill which is about 7.5 inches of water in the wash basket.

Is the washer filling the machine with any water? Do you hear water entering the machine? If you are doing a cold water fill and there is no or very little water in the wash basket with the NF error code. Try a Warm or Hot fill and see if the machine will fill and start the wash cycle.

Assuming you are doing cold water wash loads. You could have a water line block at the inlet screen or a failed cold water inlet valve which will not open. Try the above and let me know the results..........Rich

Maytag Neptune MAH-1 won't stop filling with water

A couple things may be going on here... you may not want to hear, but the Neptune has a had many "consumer related problems".

If your complaint is "will not stop filling with water" I would access your inlet water-valve (typically blue with 2 black battery looking solenoids; where your water-lines connect directly), test for continuity and replace as necessary. Sometimes inlet-water valves also go bad where the complaint is: "no water comes in at all".
