Repairing a Frigidaire front-loading washer? This video demonstrates the proper and safe way to disassemble a washing machine and how to access parts that may need to be tested and/or replaced.
I have this Affinity front load washer that will not spin. I checked the service manual and ran the diagnostics test #6. When it completed it showed error E47. The manual instructions were to verify the door was closed, it was. Dynamic Balancing Machine Software. Then it said to check the voltage on the J2 plug on the control panel. It's not labeled, but I think this is the White 2-wire plug which is right next to the Green 2-wire plug on the left side of the Control Board. The manual said to measure the Black wire to ground with the power on and if it's 120V I need to replace the Control Board.
I measured it and it is 120V. I just wanted to check to see if this is accurate before I spend the cash on the Control Board. I've seen other posts in this forum where the Door Lock assembly was the problem and much less expensive than the Control Board. Are there any other tests that I can perform to determine which part I need? Thanks, John.
The Door Lock Assembly arrived yesterday and it fixed the problem. So the troubleshooting guide in the manual was a bit misleading suggesting the Control Board. Incidentally, I measured resistance on the defective switch at the top of the Door Lock Assembly and was getting various readings from 1500 ohms to 1800 ohms. On the new switch I was getting a steady reading of about 800 ohms.
I installed the new switch by removing the wire that holds the door seal in place and removing the door seal in the area of the Door Lock Assembly. This is much easier than accessing it through the top of the washer. After I plugged the power cord in, I ran the diagnostics test #6 and it ran without error. We've now done a couple of loads of laundry and everything is back to normal. Thanks for your help! I hope this additional information will help others who are having this problem. All, I read many postings about the Frigidaire Affinity washers not spinning.
I fixed the problem by doing two things: • I removed the front panel of washing machine, disconnected the hoses that connect to the drain pump, and checked the filter for debris. I found about $1 worth of coins, a piece of string, and a 'twisty-tie'(like those small paper-covered wires that are used to seal a bag holding a loaf of bread). How does this stuff get there??? The hoses are VERY difficult to re-attach.
I ended up using an automotive type of hose clamp for the hose on the right side.this one was very difficult to secure otherwise. This DID NOT fix the problem. • I then replaced the DOOR LOCK AND SWITCH ASSEMBLY. This was a VERY easy item to replace and THIS DID FIX THE PROBLEM. I did not bother going through the diagnostics and measuring voltages with my digital multi-meter. I just replaced the part. I purchased the part at a local vendor and picked it up same day.
