flammableor explosive substances to the wash
water.These substances give offvaporsthat could
igniteor explode.
• Undercertain conditions, hydrogen gas may be
produced in a hot water system that has not been
used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is
explosive. If the hot water system has not been used
forsuch a period, before using a washing machine or
combinationwasher-dryer, turn on allhot water
faucetsand let the water flow fromeach for several
minutes.This will release any accumulated hydrogen
gas. The gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an
open flame during this time.
• Do not allow children to play on or in the washer.

reduces the risk of electric shock by providing an escape
wirefor the electric current.
Standard accepted color coding for ground wires is green
or green with a yellow stripe.
Groundingwires andwires coloredlike groundingwires
are NOT to be used as current carrying conductors.
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury
ordeath, all wiringand grounding must conform with
the latest edition of the National Electric Code,ANSI/
NFPA70, or theCanadian Electrical Code, CSA
C22.1, and such local regulations as might apply. It is

Troubleshooting Procedures
!WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death, disconnect power to unit before servicing, unless testing
requirespower.
Place washer into Service Mode and check for diagnostic codes. See Technical Data Sheet behind Toe
Panel.
Will Not Start
• Plug cord into live electrical outlet. Check for proper
voltage.
• Check fuse or reset circuit breaker.
• Push the START/PAUSE button to start the clothes
washer.
• Close door and push the START/PAUSE button to
start the clothes washer. START/PAUSE LED should
change from flashing to on continuously.
• Check to see if the washer in a pause or soak period
in the cycle. Wait briefly and it may start.
• Check for restricted drain system.
• Check the line filter connection terminals for good
connections.
• Check the Machine Control Board terminal
connections. See Technical Sheet or Mini Manual
packed inside washer.
• Check for stuck buttons on Console, pushing in on
board tact switches. Readjust buttons on inside of
Console.
• Replace Console Control Board.
Leaking
• Make sure inlet hose connections are not leaking.
Check for rubber gasket damage due to over-
tightening.
• Check standpipe for leak. Wrap a dry rag around the
standpipe opening. If rag becomes wet, leak is fault
of home plumbing. Be sure the standpipe is capable
of accepting the flow of water from the washer.
• Make sure end of drain hose is correctly inserted and
secured to drain standpipe.
• Check internal hose connections (fill, drain systems,
dispenser hoses & clamps).
• Check rubber boot. Remove, reposition and reinstall,
if necessary.
• Check for possible kinked dispenser to outer tub
hose. Hot water pressurization may force door open.
No Tumble
• Start normal cycle with an empty machine and allow
a fill to check tumble.
• Fabric cycles such as NORMAL, DELICATES,
HAND WASH, & WRINKLE CONTROL only tumble
periodically, every 60 seconds.
• Washer does not tumble during most fills or during
presoak.
• Perform Board Output Test. See Technical Sheet
or Mini Manual packed behind Toe Panel.
• Check for loose connections at Machine Control
Board, Pressure Switch, Motor, Tach Harness and
Motor Control.
• Check motor windings resistance. (Connector CN1
Pins 8 & 9 = 3.6 ohms, pins 1 & 10 = 1.1 ohms, Pins
5 & 10 = 1.1 ohms)
• Check belt.
• Washer with heat option does not tumble while
heating. (Export washers only)
Will Not Spin
• Check to make sure the door is fully closed.
• Check for water left inside the washer. If present,
see Will Not Drain.
• Perform Board Output Test. See Technical Sheet
or Mini Manual packed behind Toe Panel. Will
washer spin? Possible unbalanced load scenario
previously.
• Check for loose connections at Machine Control
Board, Pressure Switch, Motor, Tach Harness and
Motor Control.
• Check belt.
No Water Fill
• Test water fill. Perform Board Output Test. See
Technical Sheet or Mini Manual packed behind Toe
Panel.
• Check to make sure water supply is turned on fully.
• With no clothes in washer normal water level is
between the 4th and 5th hole on the spinner back wall.
• Check electrical circuit and connections at the Water
Valve, and Pressure Switch.
• Check for kinks in inlet hoses.
• Check for clogged inlet screens.
• Visually check hot and cold separately for fill.
• Check for low water pressure. May be dependent on
pressure entering home. Variations may occur due
to usage in the home at the time machine is used.
• Check for frozen pipes and hoses.
• Check resistance of water valve coils. (Normal 1.18K
ohms; CN3 connector – Cold (BU) – Bleach (OR) –
Hot (RD) and the White wire pin 1 on main.
• Check for loose connections at the Pressure Switch
or on the Machine Control Board, connector 5P.
Tub Full of Suds
• Check for restricted drain system. See Will Not
Drain and Will Not Spin.
• Check for loose wire connections at Control Board
and Drain Pump.
• Perform Board Output Test. See Technical Sheet
or Mini Manual packed behind Toe Panel.
• Use high efficiency or low sudsing detergent
specially formulated for front load washers.
• Reduce detergent amount for that specific load size
and soil level. Towel loads have a minimal amount of
soil present and typically create more suds.
• Check to see if belt is off motor and pulley.
• Run the clothes washer through another complete
cycle using the coldest water, tablespoon of salt and
no detergent.
Wet Clothes
• Very small clothes loads can cause unbalanced
loads. Add additional towels.
• Excessive suds may have been present, due to not
using High-efficiency detergent. Reduce amount of
detergent usage.
• See Will Not Spin.
• Low Spin Speed was selected.
Will Not Lock
• Door not all the way closed or not properly aligned.
Possible laundry load is too large to close door.
• Place washer into Service Mode and check for
diagnostic codes 4 &18. See Technical Sheet or Mini

system. See Technical Sheet or Mini Manual packed
behind Toe Panel.
• Check electrical connections at lock switch assembly
and Machine Control Board (CN2).
Will Not Unlock
• Push door closed to make sure nothing from inside
is pressing against it, which may keep it from
unlocking.
• Display shows LO. Press Off, Start/Pause or unplug
washer. Door will unlock after 3 minutes.
• Door locked from water level too high. Opening door
will result in water draining from door opening.
• Place washer into Service Mode.See Technical
Sheet or Mini Manual packed behind Toe Panel.
• Perform Board Output Test. See Technical Sheet
or Mini Manual packed behind Toe Panel. Check
door lock system for loose connections.
Will Not Drain
• Check for restricted drain system.
• In cold climates check for frozen drain hose.
• Check for 120 VAC at the Drain Pump when a spin
cycle is selected.
• Check pump motor winding resistance. (14.2 ohms)
• Check that the machine control correctly senses the
water level in the washer. See Board Input Test.
See Technical Sheet or Mini Manual packed behind
Toe Panel.
• Go to Board Output Test and perform Pump out
test. See Technical Sheet or Mini Manual packed
behind Toe Panel.
• Check the Machine Control Board connections at
CN3 (Pin 1) for the pump and relay (Pin 2).
• Should see 110-120VAC.
• Check tub to pump hose for twist in hose.
Wrong Water Temperature
• Check that both faucets are turned on fully.
• Make sure water heater is set to deliver a minimum
of 120°F (49°C) hot water at the tap. Also check
water heater capacity and recovery rate.
• If the water heater is located a long distance from
washer, the water line may need to be purged prior
to starting wash cycle.
• Too Hot/Too Cold: This washer uses a reduced
amount of water, while the control board meters the
incoming flow to regulate the actual temperature of
the water in the tub. This may appear to be
significantly warmer/cooler than expected.
• Make sure the temperature selection is correct.
• Disconnect inlet hoses from the Water Valve and
clean the valve screens of any debris.
Noisy and/or Vibration/Walking
• Check if the washer was properly leveled and the
locking nuts are securely tightened up against the
base frame of the washer.
• Check and determine all five of the shipping bolts
and spacers have been fully removed from the rear
panel of the washer.
• Check for proper load size and distribution. If clothes
load is too small, add a few towels to balance the
clothes load better.
• Check the tightness of the rear pulley bolt. Tighten if
necessary.
• Clean floor and bottom side of washer feet.
Rubber Feet Leaving Marks on Floor
• Use a pencil eraser to remove mark.
• Walk washer into location, do not drag.
Additive Cups Full of Water
• Small amount of water in bottom of additive cups is
normal.
• Remove and wash Dispenser Tray, removable Cup,
and Rinse Cap.
• Level washer.
Buttons do not Respond
