My Maytag MHWE500VW11 (http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=omv7WULuxaw&subid=0&offerid=225193.1&type=10&tmpid=2111&RD_PARM1=http&RD_PARM2=%253A%252F%252Fwww.appliancepartspros&RD_PARM3=.com%252Fpartsearch%252Fmodel.aspx%253Fmodel_id%253D5518873) washer gave me the F35 and Sud error messages and would not wash my clothes. I discovered on the Internet this was due to a faulty analog pressure sensor, part # W10156252 (http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=omv7WULuxaw&subid=0&offerid=225193.1&type=10&tmpid=2111&RD_PARM1=http&RD_PARM2=%253A%252F%252Fwww.appliancepartspros&RD_PARM3=.com%252FAppliance-Parts%252Fwhirlpool-switch-wl-item-number-ap4323930.aspx%253Fpn_%253DW10156252). This has been apparently superseded by part # W10415587 (http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=omv7WULuxaw&subid=0&offerid=225193.1&type=10&tmpid=2111&RD_PARM1=http&RD_PARM2=%253A%252F%252Fwww.appliancepartspros&RD_PARM3=.com%252FAppliance-Parts%252Fwhirlpool-switch-item-number-ap5264563.aspx%253Fpn_%253DW10415587). Unfortunately, this part is not available! It does not exist! WTF??? For an 18-month-old Maytag washer! I was pissed! I'm still pissed! BUT - I obtained part # W10312527 (http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=omv7WULuxaw&subid=0&offerid=225193.1&type=10&tmpid=2111&RD_PARM1=http&RD_PARM2=%253A%252F%252Fwww.appliancepartspros&RD_PARM3=.com%252FAppliance-Parts%252Fwhirlpool-switch-wl-item-number-ap4568109.aspx%253Fpn_%253DW10312527), which is very similar to W10156252. I had to trim a small tab off of the electrical plug (from the washer) to allow the parts to mate. WORKS GREAT...NO F35...NO SUD...NO PISSED-OFF WIFE!!!! O0
WHIRLPOOL W10415587 (http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=omv7WULuxaw&subid=0&offerid=225193.1&type=10&tmpid=2111&RD_PARM0=http%253A%252F%252Fwww.appliancepartspros.com%252FAppliance-Parts%252Fwhirlpool-switch-item-number-ap5264563.aspx%253Fpn_%253DW10415587&RD_PARM1=http&RD_PARM2=%253A%252F%252Fwww.appliancepartspros&RD_PARM3=.com%252FAppliance-Parts%252Fwhirlpool-switch-item-number-ap5264563.aspx%253Fpn_%253DW10415587) Switch, AP5264563 (http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=omv7WULuxaw&subid=0&offerid=225193.1&type=10&tmpid=2111&RD_PARM0=http%253A%252F%252Fwww.appliancepartspros.com%252FAppliance-Parts%252Fwhirlpool-switch-item-number-ap5264563.aspx%253Fpn_%253DW10415587&RD_PARM1=http&RD_PARM2=%253A%252F%252Fwww.appliancepartspros&RD_PARM3=.com%252FAppliance-Parts%252Fwhirlpool-switch-item-number-ap5264563.aspx%253Fpn_%253DW10415587)

For what it's worth, my parts supplier today told me that W10156252 (http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=omv7WULuxaw&subid=0&offerid=225193.1&type=10&tmpid=2111&RD_PARM1=http&RD_PARM2=%253A%252F%252Fwww.appliancepartspros&RD_PARM3=.com%252Fwhirlpool-switch-w10415587-ap5264563.html) is discontinued. He then asked if my unit was a whirlpool or Kenmore(I think he said Kenmore). (it was whirlpool). He gave me W10249845 (http://click.linksynergy.com/fs-bin/click?id=omv7WULuxaw&subid=0&offerid=225193.1&type=10&tmpid=2111&RD_PARM1=http&RD_PARM2=%253A%252F%252Fwww.appliancepartspros&RD_PARM3=.com%252Fwhirlpool-switch-wl-w10249845-ap4411837.html). I did a google search and it looks like this latest number is all black, rather than the original black and red. I know part color rarely makes a difference, but I'm thinking there might be different part numbers for different applications (standard, steam, whirlpool, Kenmore, etc).
Has anyone else run across similar situations with these, or related, part numbers?
