I have a Maytag Neptune washer that is about 6 years old. It came with
our house when we bought it. As of yesterday, it is filling with hot
water on any cycle that calls for cold water and vice versa. The hoses
have not been touched and I know it was working right previously. I
thought about just swapping the hot and cold hoses, but this must be
indiciative of a problem.

You have a Maytag Neptune, and Neptune just passed the apogee (or
aponep) of its orbit around the sun. This causes the water to
reverse. Neptune's orbit is 186 years iirc so if you reverse the
hoses, you should be ok for another 93.

Has anyone ever heard of this happening ?
Perhaps a bad circuit board ($$$) ? I searched but could find nothing
that matches this scenario.

There are more than two settings. But, if hot and cold work
backwards, then warm should be ok. If wash and rinse are both
backwards, then both should work out ok with the hoses switched.
Sounds good to me. Maybe someday it will get bad again, and that
might answer the nagging question, how did this happen in the first
place?

Thanks in advance !
