Voltage Measurement Safety Information
When performing live voltage measurements, you must do the following:
Verify the controls are in the off position so that the appliance does not start when energized. Allow enough space to perform the voltage measurements without obstructions. Keep other people a safe distance away from the appliance to prevent potential injury. Always use the proper testing equipment. After voltage measurements, always disconnect power before servicing.
IMPORTANT: Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Sensitive Electronics
ESD problems are present everywhere. Most people begin to feel an ESD discharge at approximately 3000V. It takes as little as 10V to destroy, damage, or weaken the main control assembly. The new main control assembly may appear to work well after repair is finished, but a malfunction may occur at a later date due to ESD stress.
Use an anti-static wrist strap. Connect wrist strap to green ground connection point or
unpainted metal in the appliance
-OR­ Touch your finger repeatedly to a green ground connection point or unpainted metal
in the appliance.
Before removing the part from its package, touch the anti-static bag to a green ground
connection point or unpainted metal in the appliance.
Avoid touching electronic parts or terminal contacts; handle electronic control assembly
by edges only.
When repackaging main control assembly in anti-static bag, observe above instructions.
This service data sheet is intended for use by persons having electrical, electronic, and mechanical experience and knowledge at a level generally considered acceptable in the appliance repair trade. Any attempt to repair a major appliance may result in personal injury and property damage. The manufacturer or seller cannot be responsible, nor assume any liability for injury or damage of any kind arising from the use of this data sheet.

DIAGNOSTIC GUIDE
Before servicing, check the following:
Make sure there is power at the wall outlet. Has a household fuse blown or circuit breaker
tripped? Was a regular fuse used? Inform customer that a time-delay fuse is required.
Is dryer vent properly installed and clear
of lint or obstructions?
Are both hot and cold water faucets open
and water supply hoses unobstructed?
Make sure drain hose is not sealed into
drain pipe, and that there is an air gap for ventilation. Ensure drain height is between 39" (991 mm) and 8' (2.4 m) above the floor.
All tests/checks should be made with a
VOM (volt-ohm-milliammeter) or DVM (digital-voltmeter) having a sensitivity of 20,000 per volt DC or greater.
Resistance checks must be made with washer/
dryer unplugged or power disconnected.
IMPORTANT: Avoid using large
diameter probes when checking harness connectors as the probes may damage the connectors upon insertion.
Check all harnesses and connections before
replacing components. Look for connectors not fully seated, broken or loose wires and terminals, or wires not pressed into connectors far enough to engage metal barbs.
A potential cause of a control not
functioning is corrosion or contamination on connections. Use an ohmmeter to check for continuity across suspected connections.
ACTIVATING THE SERVICE DIAGNOSTIC TEST MODES (WASHER)
1. Be sure the washer/dryer is in standby mode (plugged in with all indicators off).
NOTE: After initial power is applied, wait 10 seconds before activating Service Diagnostic Test Modes.

If one or more DC voltages are still missing,
go to step 9.
If the DC voltages return, check for short in
harness between main control and shifter assy.
If harness and connections are good,
replace shifter assembly.
9. Main Control has malfunctioned. a. Unplug washer/dryer or disconnect power. b. Replace the main control. c. Reassemble all parts and panels. d. Plug in washer/dryer or reconnect power.
Calibrate washer and perform Automatic Test to verify repair.
TEST #2: Valves
This test checks the electrical connections to the valves, and the valves themselves.
1. Check the relays and electrical connections to the valves by performing the Cold and Hot Valve tests under Manual Test Mode on page 9. Each test activates and deactivates the selected valve. The following steps assume one (or more) valve(s) did not turn on.
2. For the valve(s) in question check the individual solenoid valves:
a. Unplug washer/dryer or disconnect power. b. Remove console to access main control. c. Remove connector J9 from main control.
Refer to main control diagram on page 12.
d. Check harness connection to solenoid valves.
3. Check resistance of the valve coils across
the following J9 connector pinouts:
J9, 1 & 4evlaV toH
Resistance should be 890–1.3k .
If resistance readings are tens of ohms
outside of range, check lower washer harness connector according to diagram. If still outside of range, replace the valve assembly.
If resistance readings are within range,
replace main control and calibrate washer. Perform Automatic Test to verify repair.
TEST #3: Drive System
1. Activate Service Diagnostic Test Mode, retrieve any fault/error codes, and clear them. If the displayed error codes are F7-E1, F7-E5, or motor speed codes, there is likely a motor, capacitor, or shifter related issue.
2. Once the error codes are cleared, enter Manual Test Mode and run the Heavy Agitation test; if the motor runs after 15–20 seconds, there is not a problem with the motor, capacitor, control, or wiring harness connections (although the black wire from the shifter to the control should still be checked).
NOTE: The speed wheel in the transmission only turns during the spin cycle.
3. While in Manual Test Mode, try to get the washer to spin; if the motor hums briefly and then shuts down (with the lid lock indicator blinking), go to Fault Code Display Mode and look for shifter or basket speed errors, which verify an issue with the shifter/sensor assembly (optical sensor is not reading the motor speed).
TEST #3a: Drive System – Shifter
This test checks connections, shifter motor, switch, and optical sensor.
NOTE: Refer to Figure 4, “Shifter Assembly Strip Circuit” on page 14 for tests and measurements.
IMPORTANT: Drain water from tub before accessing bottom of washer.

verify that the cam on the splutch is moving freely and not binding.
6. Remove connector J2 from main control. With an ohmmeter, verify resistance of the shifter motor across the following J2 connector pinouts:
Resistance should be 2k to 3.5k .
If values are correct, reconnect J2 and
proceed to step 7.
If values are open or out of range, check
lower washer harness connector according to diagram. If the values are still open or out of range, go to step 13.
7. Plug in washer/dryer or reconnect power.
8. With a voltmeter set to AC, connect the
black probe to J2-2 (L1) and red probe to J2-1 (N). Activate shifter motor by switching between Spin and Agitate modes. Energize outputs using Manual Test Mode on page 9.
IMPORTANT: Lid must be closed with Lid Lock enabled to run the SPIN and AGITATE tests.

Drain pump Pin 1 to lower harness connector Pin 7 to main control J2-3
If there is continuity, go to step 10.
If there is no continuity, replace the lower
or upper washer harness (depending on where the issue was) and repeat step 2.
10. With an ohmmeter, measure the resistance across the two pump terminals. Resistance should be 14–25 Ω.
If values are open or out of range, replace
the pump motor.
If the resistance at the pump motor is
correct, go to step 11.
11. If there is a stuck pump, check for a blown board. If the board has a blown R69 surge resistor, check for stuck or shorted pump motor; if OK, check all other loads with input to the board.
12. If the preceding steps did not correct the drain problem, replace the main control.
a. Unplug washer/dryer or disconnect power. b. Replace the main control. c. Reassemble all parts and panels. d. Plug in washer/dryer or reconnect power.
Calibrate washer and perform Automatic Test to verify repair.
