Possible Causes

Loose or damaged communication harness, failing motor control circuit, main control board failure, electrical interference

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer before opening any panels.

Inspect communication wiring:

  • Remove the top and rear panels to access the main control and motor area.
  • Locate the harness that carries serial communication between the boards (refer to wiring diagram in the tech sheet).
  • Disconnect and reconnect the harness at both ends several times to clean contacts. Check for pinched or abraded insulation along its path.
  • Ensure the harness is routed away from high-voltage lines and sharp metal edges.

If F28 persists: Either the main control or the motor control section is defective. Because this involves board-level diagnosis, replacement is best handled by a qualified technician using the correct Crosley parts.
