Common Symptoms
- Washer is completely unresponsive despite confirmed incoming power
- Washer stops mid-cycle
- Washer does not fill, drain, spin, or agitate as commanded
- Washer controls do not respond
- Washer displays communication or control-related error codes
- Visible burn marks or a burning odor from the control area
Check Before Replacing
- Confirm the washer is receiving power at the receptacle and that the circuit breaker or fuse has not tripped.
- Unplug the washer before inspecting the control area, wiring harnesses, and connectors for loose, damaged, corroded, or visibly overheated connections.
- Check the washer’s model-specific tech sheet and run its approved service-diagnostic routine if available; record any stored error codes before replacing the control.
- If the board shows burn damage or a burning odor, disconnect power and have the control and related wiring evaluated rather than assuming the board is the sole cause.
- Do not perform live-voltage measurements unless qualified to work safely around energized appliance circuits; manufacturer guidance indicates such testing may require a certified technician.
Pro Tip
A control-board symptom can be caused by an upstream power, wiring, motor-control, sensor, or communication problem. Verify power, connectors, and the model-specific diagnostic results before condemning the ACU.
