I have paperwork that indicates the resistance value should be 97 ohms, at the molex connector unplugged from the inverter. The led was blinking 4 times for a mode shifter error. I installed another mode shifter off of a machine that worked but had bad bearings. It had a reading of 63 ohms. The unit still won’t agitate, and I still have the error code. I swapped the inverter out with a known good board with no change. Do you any ideas why the mode shifter would work on one and not the other? What is the margin of error, for the resistance value, of the mode shifter coil?

I have attached an information link for you. Page 29 is the mode shifter coil and inverter test. The few pages before and after all have good information as well. Please note that some testing readings change by closing and opening lid. Also are you sure that the lid switch has not failed.

Hello
Are you sure the inverter board and mode shifter is off the same model ? That can be an issue if its off another machine that is not compatible. Matt Ace technician

Thanks. I already had this info. Check this out though, the same type of unit is working properly. While running I unplug the mode shifter cable and it continues to agitate and the resistance check, of the mode shift cable, reads open.????? I would think that when the coil loses power it would drop out or otherwise disengage and stop agitating. I’m perplexed to say the least.
