2 Lid Monitor
3 Locked Rotor Monitor For 5 straight seconds control not seeing
4 Reset Monitor
5 Mode Shifter
Description
Lid lock didn't occur or lid lock signal not seen
by control due to lack of connection.
Control did not get lid closed signal from
switch while motor was moving. Could mean
the switch didn't close or control didn't get the
signal because of lack of connection.
signal changes indicating the motor is turning
while trying to spin.
Could mean the motor isn't rotating or
Control didn't get the signal because of lack of
connection.
Control is resetting the software by itself due
to criteria it believes could resolve itself upon
reset.
Control didn't see the transition from Agitate
to Spin or vice-versa in the time required.
Could mean the shift didn't occur or Control
didn't get the signal because of lack of
connection.

Repair Action
• Check the resistance of the lid
lock assembly.
• Check the harness for open
wires and or connectors from the
board to the lock assembly.
• If lock assembly and harness
prove good at the time of service,
replace the lid lock assembly.
• Replace control if this fault
happens repeatedly.
• Physically check the washer
for anything preventing motor
movement.
• Check harness and harness
connectors from the control to
the motor.
• Verify hall sensor is connected
to the main harness. Put washer
in Service Mode and run TEST
13. Spin Test. If hall sensor
is bad or disconnected, the
basket will start to spin normally
and then stop spinning after
approximately 5 seconds. Ensure
hall sensor is properly connected
and positioned on the motor. If
basket spins for approximately
15 seconds, the hall sensor is
most likely NOT the cause.
• TCO should reset in
approximately 45 minute. If
TCO is tripped, make sure motor
moves freely and that nothing
is jamming it. Replace motor if it
does not.
• Check for loose connections at
the control. Reconnect if any.
• Check for recommended house
line voltage to the washer.
• Check mode shifter coupler for
damage and the ability to slide in
and out freely.
• Using an ohm meter, check to
ensure mode shifter switch is in
the open position.
• Check resistance of mode shifter
motor (approximately 5.7 K
ohms).
• Check for 120 VAC to the mode
shifter motor at the control J512
connector.
• If voltage is present, replace the
mode shifter.
