According to Art :
Have you tried calling Maytag?

Or a local appliance repair outlet?

These things are pretty standard/universal.

If you _had_ to put on an external switch, you really need to buy a
horsepower rated switch. ACs have nasty start surges, and power
bars aren't designed to be used as power switches for such things.

You could build one out of a chunk of SJ appliance cord, a plug
and receptacle, a plastic box, and a HP-rated switch for $20.
