WF410ANW/XAA
Publication # nwWF410 Revision Date 06/17/2013
Quick Test Mode:
Note: This test erases all faults and memory:
To enter press Soil, Signal, & Power
simultaneously with the power off.
1. All LED’s light up and the washer beeps
as it enters the Quick Test Mode.
2. The unit displays the software version for a
second then clears the EEprom.
3. After the displaying the software version, LCD
will display Model information. If EEEE is displayed
the PCB ass’y is defective.
4. When the version is displayed, turn the Jog-Dial
CCW until version disappears. Press the following
keys to test the various components
Press Temp Key (Lock door with Spin key) to cycle
through the Water Valves circuit test in this order: Cold
Main, Bleach, Hot, Boot valve then off.
Press Spin Key to test Door Lock/Unlock circuit.
Press Signal Key to test Drain Pump
Press Soil Key to test Water Heater
Service Mode:
This mode allows more detailed operation tests and trouble-
shooting, to enter press Signal & Extra Rinse
simultaneously with the power on.
While in Service Mode the following tests can be performed:
Quick Spin Test = Delay Start & Pure Cycle: This accel-
erates the drum motor from 0 to maximum RPM over a few
minutes. Note: Stay with the washer during this test, out of
balance detection may be bypassed. Press the Start/Pause
button during the test to hold its spinning speed for 10 minutes
before going back to Quick Spin Test Mode.
Cycle Count = Press the Signal button to see how many
times the unit was used.
Soft Ware # = Press the Soil button to see the software version
Fault Code Test = Press the Extra Rinse button to view the
stored fault codes – then turn Jog Dial to view error codes
(Push Start/Pause while the code is displayed to view the num-
ber of cycles since the error occurred)
Peripheral (Main PCB) input Tests
1. Press Pure Cycle. Then turn the Jog-Dial so that the Extra
Rinse LED is turned on. Next, press the Start/Pause Key. The
Water Temperature will be displayed in Fahrenheit.
2. Press Pure Cycle. Then turn the Jog-Dial so that the Extra
Spin LED is turned on. Next, press the Start/Pause Key. The
door status will be displayed (OP if open, CL if closed).
3. Press Pure Cycle. Then turn the Jog-Dial so that the Delay
Start LED is turned on. Next, press the Start/Pause Key. The
door lock Switch status will be displayed (UL if unlocked, Lo if
locked).
4. Press Pure Cycle. Then turn the Jog-Dial so that the Pure
Cycle LED is turned on. Next, press the Start/Pause Key. The
Water Frequency will be displayed.

Check for any leakage on the base, Hose, Valve and Tub connec-
tions and take any required action. This can also be a heater out of
place.
During natural draining, this error occurs because the drain bel-
lows are clogged with foreign material. Remove the foreign mate-
rial.
Check drain motor operation. Replace if it doesn’t operate nor-
mally.
Motor Drive Error or
Hall Sensor error
3E Check the motor drive connector, it may be loose. The hall sensor
may be disconnected, loose or damaged . Check for a foreign ob-
ject inside the motor or motor damage. The stator might be loose
or damaged. The drum might be overloaded from too many
clothes or the relay or PCB might be defective.

Check whether the water supply valve is clogged with foreign ma-
terial and whether water is supplied properly.
Check for reversed fill hoses
Check water temperature, if sensed as higher than 50 ˚C in the
Wool or Lingerie cycle it will create error.
Check the relays, if they operate correctly replace the Main PCB.

Make sure to check the operating voltage. (An error occurs when
under or over voltage is supplied.) Check whether a plug recepta-
cle is used. When the connecting wires are too small (extension
cord use), a momentary low voltage may drop up to 10 V
Main PBA fault (sometimes)

Check for disconnected wires.
Check whether the sub PCB is short circuited because of moisture.
If the main PCB’s communication circuit is faulty, replace it.

Check whether either the Power switch or a tact switch (any button)
is stuck down.
Check whether the service PBA holding screws are fastened too
tight pinching the contacts
If the main PBA switching IC on/off error has occurred, replace the
main PBA.
The “E2” error occurs if the main relay connections are incorrect.
Check the connections. If there is no error in the connections, re-
place the main PBA

This can be a short or a wire disconnected to the heater circuit. This
can also be problem with the tub contacting the heater or if the wa-
ter in the tub is frozen or there is no water. The error is triggered by
temperatures above 145C. If the heater has no error, this occurs
because of a PBA relay malfunction. Check the wiring harness to
the heater.
An Hr error occurs if the steam heater, is faulty, replace it.

Water is supplied continually because the water level detection
does not work. - Verify the drain is working properly, the water level
detection does not work and water is supplied continually. Verify the
water valves shut off fully. Finally check the water level sensor.
Temperature
Sensor Error
29 The washing heater temperature sensor in the tub has an error.
Check the connections for the washing heater temperature sensor
connector.
Unbalance
Error

Check the type of laundry. Check whether it may cause an unbal-
anced situation.- Educate the consumer in this case, to press
pause, reposition the load or remove a few items. Press start to
continue and complete the wash cycle.
Foaming
Detected
SUdS
Sd
This occurs when too much foaming is detected. It is also displayed
while foaming is removed. When the removal is finished, the normal
cycle proceeds. (This is one of the normal operations. It is an error
for preventing non-sensing faults.)
Check whether the washing machine is level to the floor with respect to the original position of the washing machine prior
to service. Doing this now will reduce the need for a redo call and customer dissatisfaction.
✔ Vibrations can shorten the lifetime of the product.

When using non-HE detergents, or using too much deter-
gent for the water hardness and soil level of the clothing,
over sudsing will occur. When this happens there will be
leaks out of the detergent drawer and door. Please ad-
vise consumer of proper detergent usage.
It is normal for some water to remain in Detergent Drawer
after it completes washing. Bleach is usually flushed out
into the tub at the beginning of the washing. Also, its com-
partment is washed again during the following rinse cycle,
removing any remnants.
Location considerations
Do not install your washer in areas where water may
freeze, since your washer will always maintain some
water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. This
can cause damage the belts, the pump, hoses and
other components. Operating temperature should be
above 60°F/16°C.
NOTICE
The unit sometimes will pause during Sanitize, or Pure Cycle, wash modes and appear not to be functional. The Sani-
tize and Pure Cycle wash cycles have target temperatures to assure washer performance. If the water temperature
doesn't meet the target temperature during the wash cycle, the washer will automatically add extra time to allow the
heater to bring the water up to the programmed, or target temperature. In this stage, the displayed time will pause and
hold until the heating operation has been completed. It is at this point that the customer may feel that operation has
stopped. (The maximum added programmed time is 30 minutes)
