Common Symptoms
- Washer fails to begin a selected cycle.
- Cycle stops or fails to advance normally.
- Washer does not properly coordinate fill, wash, drain, or spin operations.
- Control-related fault codes or communication faults may be present.
- User interface may appear unresponsive when the ACU or its connections are affected.
Check Before Replacing
- Confirm the washer has power and that the receptacle, power cord, and household breaker are functioning.
- With power disconnected, inspect the ACU area and harness connectors for loose, incompletely seated, damaged, or corroded connections.
- Use the model-specific service diagnostics and fault-history functions to check for stored ACU, user-interface, motor, pressure-system, lid-lock, or communication faults.
- Do not condemn the ACU from a symptom alone; verify the related wiring, user interface, lid system, water system, drain system, and motor components as applicable.
- Avoid live-voltage measurements unless performed by a qualified appliance technician.
Pro Tip
Before replacing the ACU, disconnect power and reseat/inspect its harness connections; the model documentation identifies multiple faults that can originate in wiring, user-interface, lid, motor, pressure, or water systems rather than the control board itself.
