Samsung top load washer
Its a 1 year old washer that will attempt to spin at about 8 mins left in cycle, gets to about 150 rpm and then jumps back to 18 mins. and starts filling with rinse water again. There are no suds or evidence of off balance load, drains completely each time, no codes stored when put in diagnostics. the unit will spin in test mode and have done this fine with clothes in it also, although not recommended. Drains fine and spins great everytime in test mode, reaches 1050 rpm.
Previous company that worked on it replaced the inner tub and main control board, and then bailed on customer (while under warranty).
Motor, hall sensor, and wiring all ohm out correctly. Has anyone experienced the same issues? Since washer will spin fine even under load in test mode, I assume motor, wiring, and controller are good but there is another issue such as a tub sensor that is not in circuit during test mode? Any help is appreciated
My best advise is either the mems sensor or the suspension rods. We have seen both cause this symptom.
I would suggest replacing all 4 suspension rods because the mems sensor will usually throw an error.
