Our Neptune keeps filling, and we ordered a new pressure switch part # 22002921 but apparently it has recently been changed to part # 22002994. This new part has different connections and will not fit our machine. We cannot locate anything that instructs us on how to fit the part to the machine. We did call Whirlpool, and they had no info/tech support (they make the part).

I am wonder if you were given or sent the the wrong part. I check the Maytag service bulletins on your model and there was not anything about redisigning or changing the part so I think all they did was change the part number. Here is a picture of what you should have received. Part Details - WHIRLPOOL USE WPL 22002921, part number: 22002994Does this look like what you need or what you got?

The picture you attached looks exactly like the original part, but not like the new one. I cannot figure out how to insert a photo of the new part 2994. :eek: We did order 2921 and were shipped 2994 that the company confirmed was to replace 2921. Unfortunately the metal connections on the back were changed. Instead of 6 metal connections together, part 22002994 has 4 and moved 2(#14 & #24 I think) to the slots next to the 2 red/1black circles. Whirlpool co. did not have any info/tech support about how to make the new design work, and the person on the phone said Maytag did not either. Very strange. We gave up and called a service repair place this morning.

Well, sorry you had to call a tech.
Maytag used to be the company you found when you went In Search of Excellence. Now it is what you find when you search for "In Search for Incompetence.
Let us know how they get it going, it will be helpful to me and others.
thanks

Whirlpool should have left the laundry division in the hands of Maytag.
