Starting with this hole, place each spring clip in its respective hole and snap in place. Refer to Figure 40 for proper clip installation.

Starting Serial No. R8237278YK – When installing outer tub cover, always use a new cover gasket. Before installing the new gasket, clean and remove any foreign material that is in the gasket groove of the cover. The outer tub flange must also be cleaned.

Starting at the positioning pin that is located between the two bleach drain tabs, lay gasket into the gasket groove of the tub cover. Refer to Figure 41. Using the semi-curled end of the tub cover tool, Part No. 273P4, Figure 41, press against both tabs when installing gasket past the ends of the hold-down tabs and to bottom of groove. One by one, insert gasket past tips of all eight down-down tabs.

IMPORTANT: Care must be taken not to twist or bunch the gasket in any one area as this will cause a leak after assembly.

NOTE: Using your fingers, press gasket down into gasket groove between the hold-down tabs. The tool is designed to spread open the hold-down tabs thus preventing tearing of the gasket during installation.

With the tub cover tilted at approximately a 45 degree angle, Figure 42, insert the positioning pin on the tub cover into the notch on the outer tub flange. The two bleach drain tabs must be angled downward toward the inside wall of the outer tub. This is required for proper dispensing of the bleach. Lower the cover down and starting at the holddown tabs next to the positioning pin, push down firmly on top of the tab area until hold-down tab ends snap over edge of outer tub flange. This must be done with all eight hold-down tabs to ensure a water-tight seal between tub cover and outer tub flange.

e. Through Serial No. R8237277YK – Remove

eight clips holding outer tub cover to tub. Refer to Figure 40. Remove cover from outer tub and set off to side of washer to avoid damage, then remove old cover gasket.

NOTE: Through Serial No. R8237277YK – When installing the outer tub cover, always use a new cover gasket. Lubricate the gasket with liquid soap to aid in the assembly. Cover must be placed on the outer tub so the notch on the top edge of the outer tub cover is directly over the left front clip hole in the tub. Refer to Figure 40. Starting with this hole, place each spring clip in its respective hole and snap in place. Refer to Figure 40 for proper clip installation.

Starting Serial No. R8237278YK – There are eight tub cover hold-down tabs which snap over the outer tub flange. Using the special tub cover tool, Part No. 273P4, insert the two prongs of the tool underneath each side of the tandem tabs. Refer to Figure 40. Tilt the tool toward the center of the tub cover and at the same time lift upward on cover to unsnap hold-down tabs from outer tub flange. One by one, disengage each of the eight hold-down tabs from the outer tub flange and remove cover.

Starting Serial No. R8237278YK – When installing outer tub cover, always use a new cover gasket. Before installing the new gasket, clean and remove any foreign material that is in the gasket groove of the cover. The outer tub flange must also be cleaned.

Starting at the positioning pin that is located between the two bleach drain tabs, lay gasket into the gasket groove of the tub cover. Refer to Figure 41. Using the semi-curled end of the tub cover tool, Part No. 273P4, press against both tabs

when installing gasket past the ends of the holddown tabs and to bottom of groove. Refer to Figure 41. One by one, insert gasket past tips of all eight down-down tabs.

IMPORTANT: Care must be taken not to twist or bunch the gasket in any one area as this will cause a leak after assembly.

NOTE: Using your fingers, press gasket down into gasket groove between the hold-down tabs. The tool is designed to spread open the hold-down tabs thus preventing tearing of the gasket during installation.

With the tub cover tilted at approximately a 45 degree angle, Figure 42, insert the positioning pin on the tub cover into the notch on the outer tub flange. The two bleach drain tabs must be angled downward toward the inside wall of the outer tub. This is required for proper dispensing of the bleach. Lower the cover down and starting at the holddown tabs next to the positioning pin, push down firmly on top of the tab area until hold-down tab ends snap over edge of outer tub flange. This must be done with all eight hold-down tabs to ensure a water-tight seal between tub cover and outer tub flange.

The best assembly procedure is to start on one side, then cross over to the opposite side. Continue with this criss-cross pattern, until tub cover is fully seated. Visually check each tab area again to ensure that cover is seated.

Check whether or not the bleach drain tabs are in the down position by looking through the two square holes in the bleach funnel area of the tub cover. If tabs are not down, a small screwdriver can be inserted down through the holes in the bleach funnel area and the tabs can be bent into position.

62. GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

• The washer must be grounded. In the event of malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. The washer is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a threeprong grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is properly installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

through the power cord and if local code permits its use, connect an external ground wire (18 gauge minimum–available at your local hardware store). Connect one end of the wire under any screw (located at rear of washer) and other end to a known effective electrical ground.

• If the room’s electrical supply does not meet the above specifications and/or if you are not sure the laundry room has an effective ground, have a qualified electrician, or your local electrical utility company check it and correct any problems.

63. WASHERS EQUIPPED WITH AN ELECTRONIC CONTROL

After connecting the washer to the electrical supply, close the loading door and start the washer (refer to OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS supplied with the washer). If washer starts (WASH light will come on), but you have intermittent mixing valve or motor operation, it could mean the polarity or grounding of the outlet is incorrect. Have a qualified electrician check out the polarity and grounding and correct the problem. Refer to Figure 65.

W003

VEND PRICE

The required vend (price to start) can be programmed from 5 to 995 in increments of five; initially starting at 10 for single and dual coin drop systems. When charging extra for hot wash, there are two vend settings, one, cold or warm was fill (“basic”); and two, hot wash fill. When charging extra for hot wash, the wash fill will be hot only when the WASH TEMPERATURE switch is set to hot and the required hot wash vend has been reached. The wash fill will be warm if the WASH TEMPERTURE switch is set to hot but only the “basic” start vend has been input. The wash fill will start immediately when this “basic” vend is input and will automatically switch to hot once the total vend for hot wash has been input.

A coin slide does not have a programmable vend price. By default, a single input on input line number one will start the washer.

When charging extra for hot wash in coin slide applications, the slide must provide an input on line number one and number two.

UNBALANCED LIGHT

The control will turn on the UNBALANCED light signifying an out-of-balance condition whenever the loading door switch contact is opened during any part of a cycle while the washer is spinning. The light will turn off when the lid switch is reclosed. Breaking the switch contact during other times will only result in the washer stopping. If the loading door switch contact is open, the internal cycle timer stops until the contact is remade

except if the loading door switch contact is open after two minutes have elapsed into the final spin portion of any of the three cycles, the cycle will end and the washer will become idle, waiting for the next wash vend.

AUDIT

The control will keep track of the number of washes and the number of times the coin switch line is activated. Input wire leads are monitored and the count kept continuously, however, a

washer will only start if it receives all of the required vend after cycle completion, i.e. during the off period.

The programmer will display audit values up to “999” before starting back at “zero” (1000). Reading audit values has no affect on the washer operation. The audits are non-resettable. Subtract the previously read audit value from the current values to get the change in cycles or coins.

NOTE: Activating the coin switches with the programmer attached will not immediately show an increase in the audit values displayed. The programmer must first be disconnected and then reconnected in order to view any audit changes that occur with the programmer attached.

65. POWER OUTAGE OR INTERRUPTION

The control will handle power outages of any duration by restarting the cycle from where it was when power went out. Programmed cycle information and audit values remain intact.

NOTE: Power outages or the motor overload protector cycling after two minutes into the final spin of any cycle will cause the cycle to end and the washer will be idle, waiting for the next wash after the electrical power is restored.

66. PROGRAM TRANSFER

Whenever the programmer is connected to a washer, it will store all the programmable parameters currently in the attached washer into its own memory. This information will remain stored in the programmer for at least four minutes and possibly up to 12 hours after the programmer is removed from the washer.

If during this time the programmer is attached to another washer, the values from the first washer are capable of being transferred into the second washer by pressing the PROGRAM TRANSFER pad. The display will show “Pro” for approximately one second.

Section 8 Service Procedures Unique to the Electronic Control Model Washers

WARNING

To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, explosion, serious injury or death:

• Disconnect electric power to the washer before servicing.

• Never start the washer with any guards/panels removed.

• Whenever ground wires are removed during servicing, these ground wires must be reconnected to ensure that the washer is properly grounded.

W003

If any parameters were changed in the second washer (using MORE or LESS) before pressing PROGRAM TRANSFER, then pressing the pad will have no effect other than the display blanking temporarily.

If the programmer has been unpowered long enough so the stored parameters are not available for transfer, pressing this pad results in the display temporarily blanking and no transfer will occur.

IMPORTANT: Do not expose the handheld programmer to severe conditions of heat or moisture. Do not store in direct sunlight.

67. HANDHELD PROGRAMMER

IMPORTANT: The handheld programmer does not have any serviceable components, therefore, it must be replaced as a complete assembly.

The programmer, Part No. 31930, is intended to interface with the control for three main functions: Auditing, Diagnostics and Programming. The programmer contains three seven-segment lighted displays for communicating information to the user. Refer to Figure 68. The programmer has a plug connector at the end of a cable to connect with the receptacle coming from the washer control (located inside the metercase).

NOTE: If no display is visible, disconnect the handheld programmer and then reconnect it. If there still is no display, the washer may be unplugged, the motor overload protector may have cycled, or there may be a power outage.

Attaching the programmer to the washer control will not affect the washer or any cycle currently in progress. Making program changes while the washer is in a cycle will cause the cycle in progress to change only for those portions of the cycle yet to come. Functions are activated and/or deactivated by pressing a switchpad once to activate and press again to deactivate. The function is completed when the “ready” state returns. The programmer will allow switching from one function to another without going back to “ready” state each time. There is one exception: you cannot go to AUDIT or PROGRAM from DIAGNOSTICS unless first returning to the “ready” state. Return to the “ready” state before disconnecting the programmer.

NOTE: When connecting the plug to the receptacle, the wide flat on the top of the receptacle must line up with the wide flat side on the plug. Refer to Figure 68.

The programmer receives power from the washer control. When the programmer is connected, the display will show three dashes representing a “ready” state.

IMPORTANT: The procedure is intended to be used as an aid in diagnosing potential problems with electronic control. Refer to SECTION 3, “Troubleshooting,” for diagnosing problems with components other than electronic control. Refer to Figure 70 for terminal numbers, connections and color coding.

DIAGNOSTIC MODE

The diagnostics mode can be entered via the keypad of the handheld programmer. Used in conjunction with other tools by a trained service person. The diagnostics routine will reduce the amount of time required to locate and service the most common problems of the washer.

Refer to the flow charts on the following pages which correspond to the apparent problem or symptom. Verify proper wiring as shown on the CONNECTION DIAGRAM of the appropriate wiring diagram. Refer to Section 11.

WARNING

Do not repair or replace any part of the washer, or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in the UserMaintenance Instructions or in published user-repair instructions that you understand and have the skills to carry out.

84 32918

Section 8 Service Procedures Unique to the Electronic Control Model Washers

WARNING

To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, explosion, serious injury or death:

• Disconnect electric power to the washer before servicing.

• Never start the washer with any guards/panels removed.

• Whenever ground wires are removed during servicing, these ground wires must be reconnected to ensure that the washer is properly grounded.

W003

OPERATION

Pressing any of the DIAGNOSTIC switchpads will cancel the washer cycle in progress. Pressing AGITATE will cause the washer to go into agitation and the WASH and RINSE status lights to light; an “A” will be displayed.Pressing SPIN will cause the washer to spin and the SPIN and UNBALANCED lights to light; and “S” will be displayed.

Whenever switching the motor on or off, or switching between AGITATE/SPIN, there is a required five second pause to prevent damage to the washer components. The motor will stop; the display will either go into the “ready” state requiring the appropriate action switchpad to be pressed after five seconds, or the “A” or “S” will be displayed but the washer will pause five seconds before starting.

Pressing either HOT WATER or COLD WATER will cause the proper mixing valve solenoid to operate individually or together; “H” and “C” are displayed respectively. Water valve operation is also possible while in either motor action. The solenoids themselves will only operate until the washer’s pressure switch has been satisfied.

Pressing the switchpad for an active diagnostic function will turn it off, and if no functions are then active the programmer will be in the “ready” state. Opening the loading door while in DIAGNOSTICS and the programmer attached temporarily stops all functions until the loading door is closed. If the programmer is removed during any function, the function continues until electrical power is disconnected from the washer or the programmer is reattached, which will cancel all diagnostics.

IMPORTANT: It is not recommended to operate the washer for extended periods of time in a single diagnostic mode, premature life and overheating may result.

W003

82. CONTROL REPLACEMENT

When a problem with the electronic control is suspected after performing the electrical tests discussed in the troubleshooting guide, the control should be replaced. Due to the sensitivity of the electronic control, careful handling is required. As a precautionary measure, the use of a grounded wrist strap when handling the control is recommended. The wrist strap, cord and alligator clip are designed to carry away any electrostatic charge from your body and direct the charge to an available ground. By using this static protection device, potential electrostatic discharge problems associated with the handling of the electronic control will be minimized. Always handle the electronic control by the metal edges. If a wrist strap is not available, touch the washer while it is plugged in before handling the control to dissipate any charge.

To replace the control, first unplug the washer. Remove all of the wires connected to the control and remove the attaching hardware from control bracket securing assembly to washer. When removing wires from the control, hold down on the board near the appropriate terminal and disconnect the wires using a pliers. Do not pull on

wires.

The new control is supplied in a special anti-static foam carton. While holding the metal edges, remove the control from the foam wrapping. Place the inoperative control on the foam. Before positioning the new control in the control hood, remove the pressure switch from the old assembly and mount on the control bracket. When installing the complete control assembly, insert the mounting tab in the appropriate hole and securely fasten with mounting hardware. Following the wiring diagram, reconnect the wires to the new control. Do not press on electronic components or bend the terminals on the control.

It is important to take care when handling the original control. It must be carefully placed in the anti-static foam carton. A copy of the replacement report, shown on Page 99, must be completely filled out and returned with the control. Warranty credit will be issued only if the control is handled and packaged properly.
