Model MDE5500AYW Maytag Neptune Dryer showing code 8.8 and won's start

Where can I get a new control panel or console board. I'm not sure what the difference is between the two, but I do have the computer circuit board removed from the dryer and was wondering how I can order a new one and what the cost would be?

    I thought I already reported my problem as fixed. I ended up purchasing a new control panel from Marcone in St. Louis, MO for about $125.00 and it has a lifetime warranty on it. My dryer is working great and even on the extremely cold days we have had like 7 degrees.

    It would have been interesting to try the heating pad idea, but I already replace the part. I did try a blow dryer on hot for 5 min without getting any success.

    Thanks for the ideas anyway :)

    The rows of lights are flashing row by row and then they start over again, Not sure what is going on. Dryer won't start either. Is there a way to reset the computer?

Look at this link... it worked for me!!! Basically,
1) Use a heating pad and warm the display.
2) Open the dryer door as well to let the warm air in.

It took about 15 min for me and saved me a over $100 in repair costs.

Maytag dyer problems

it sounds like the control board is going bad but i wouldn't buy any parts for this dryer,soon you won't be able to get parts for it,put the money into a new dryer not to mention that the neptune products is what took maytag out and now whirlpool owns maytag.you could also have a problem with one of the connections or a bad wire in one of the connections and when you move the wires it's working again and this could be from the heat,after years the wires get brittle,you could buy the new board,put it in and if it's a wire you're back to square one,but from what you say it's either a wire in one of the connections or the board.good luck with your dryer.

Maytag Neptune MDE5500AYW panel lights work but not dryer

inside the control panel is a tech sheet that has some diagnostics on it . there is a membrane button test or something to that effect. I suspect that the start/pause button is the problem and you would need to replace the console w/touchpad.about $130-140 new. there are some used ones on ebay.

My Maytag dryer model number MDE5500AYW has lights on, but won't switch settings. It is stuck in time dry at 18 minutes. Yesterday it was on sensor dry 47 minutes. Do I need a new control board inside...

OK, your control board and LED are integrated, so you will need to just replace the control board. I would try a hard reset before replacing the board. Pull the plug or, shut down the appropriate breaker switch for 5 minutes. Re apply power after the 5 minutes are up. if you continue to experience this fault, replace the control board asap.
