Neptune Gas Dryer Blinking Pf1. Warning?
Can't find my manual. The Neptune gas dryer was blinking PF1 where the time left would normally show. Is this a warning? Should I be worried?

The PF is a power failure code and it indicates the control is not sensing any voltage. There are a couple of styles of Maytag Neptune dryers and a model number would help with a specific answer.
You don't include many additional details but if the display lights up and the drum light works then most likely the voltage is okay.
Check the circuit breaker for the dryer is not tripped. The PF could be caused by a voltage drop during a storm but you should be able to clear it and run the dryer.
With a model number I can give you instructions on how to raise the console and check the connections to the control. If the voltage is okay to the control but you continue to get the PF code the control can be at fault.
Check the circuit breakers are not tripped and submit another question with any additional detail for further assistance.
