sorry for the delay!! i didnt see this until 10 minutes ago…it showed up at the top of the thread…i removed the hose from the pressure switch and nothing changed….2 beeps and the fill light blinks??
-
hmm. try a drain and spin cycle and see what happens.
-
the spin light stays lit but nothing happens???
-
This is a strange one. Lets gain access to the motor. There should be a blinking green light on the control board on top of the motor. This will tell us error codes. The tech sheet should be located near the control board you replaced. IT will tell us what error code we are getting per how many blinks from this light.
-
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMEjN7BiGmI is a video that shows how this works.
-
the video shows the light is apparent without removing that metal cover….i do not see a blinking light on mine..or i should say a light blinking…..do i need to remove that cover..i see the board but do not see the top of the board??
-
if i need to remove that cover it looks like i need a special thingy?? one of those T sockets??
-
Find the white/red wire at the control board and and the motor. unplug the connector it is attached to at each end and test this wire for continuity.
-
i unplugged the connector from the board and from the motor….i tested the white/red wire and it seemed to be ok…(i tested with the ohm side of the tester??correct?)
-
yes that is correct. You should have and ohm reading. It is weird that you do not have a blinking light on the inverter board. But, even if the inverter was bad the washer should still fill with water and drain. You did get the washer to fill and drain briefly at one point. After the tests we have done, my conclusion is that you either have a shorted wire/ loose connection somewhere in the wire harness or the control board you installed is faulty. On top of that we could have an issue with the motor/inverter because the light is not on. This is a very strange one. Usually you do not have multiple parts fail at the same time. Did you have a power surge in the house around the same time this unit stopped working?
-
not in the entire house but there was a surge at the outlet that the machine was using….thats why i figured the board may be fried..but this is crazy…is it possible that everything got fried!!??…and yes..right after i installed the new board it started filling but didnt stop when i opened the lid so i hit the button to stop it…..it also started to drain at one point but didnt spin….now it wont do any of those things?? any other ideas or should i scrap the thing!!
