5. Advance to the Board Output Test and press
extra rinse to unlock the door. An unlock
signal will be sent to the solenoid every second
for 10 seconds.
If the door does not lock, use a voltmeter, look
for 120VAC, 60 millisecond pulse to the locking
solenoid.
If signal is present, then the door lock sole-
noid is bad and the door lock mechanism must
be replaced. To stop the signal, press extra
rinse again.
If signal is not present, check electrical
connections at switch or at control board.
Check for proper outputs from the control board
at Conn P8(3) and Neutral leg of power cord. If
voltage is present, fix electrical connections or
change wire harness. If no voltage is found, go
to P8(4) and Neutral on power cord to verify
120VAC coming into the board. If voltage is not
present check the door actuator switch. (make
sure door is closed.) If voltage is present,
change machine control board.
No Fill Test
1. Close the door and start a spin cycle to drain all
water from the washer to reset the pressure switch.
2. Press Off and open door to verify all water is re-
moved from the washer. If water still present, go
to Will Not Drain diagnostics.
3. If water is drained out, close the door and go to
Service Mode, press delicates and heavy soils
keys for 3 seconds. If it is likely to need access to
the water valve for voltage checks, consider raising
the top cover now and close the door so that the
following steps will not need to be repeated.
4. While in service mode, press the hand wash key
places the washer into the Board Input test.
5. Check the lower water level by pressing the hand
wash key.
6. "_1" indicates the washer is full. If full, check the
lower water level input at the machine control board
by reading DC voltage between P4(4) and P4(8).
If voltage is present at the machine control board,
check voltage at pressure switch between BU and
BR . If voltage present at pressure switch, re-
place pressure switch. If voltage is not present at
pressure switch, check or replace harness. If no
voltage is present at the Machine control board,
replace the machine control board.
7. "_0" indicates the washer is empty: If empty,
press the wrinkle free key to check the high wa-
ter level.
8. "--1" indicates full. If full, check the high water
level input at the machine control board by
reading 120 VAC voltage between P1(4) and
Neutral P6(2). If120 VAC is not present at the
machine control board, check continuity at
pressure switch across GY and YL. If no
continuity, replace pressure switch. If continuity,
check door switch and harness to pressure switch
and harness from pressure switch to Machine
control board. If 120 VAC is present at the
Machine control board, replace the machine
control board.
9. "--0" indicates empty. If empty, exit board input
test mode by pressing the start/pause key. Then
enter board output test mode by pressing the rinse
key.
10. Turn the cold water valve on by pressing the wrinkle
free key. Check for cold water flow at the dispenser.
If no cold water flow, check the cold water valve for
120 VAC between BU and WH. If 120 VAC is
present at the cold valve, replace the water valve. If
120 VAC is not present at the cold valve, check for
120 VAC at the machine control board between
P1(3) and Neutral. If 120 VAC is present at the
machine control board, check or replace the
harness. If 120 VAC is not present at the machine
control board, replace the machine control board.
If cold water flows, turn the cold valve off by pressing
the wrinkle free button.
!WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury, or death, disconnect power to washer before servicing,
unless testing requires it.
