Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Unplug the washer before accessing the motor.
Step-by-step checks:
- 1. Access motor and tach: Remove the rear panel to reach the drive motor. The tach coil is typically integrated at the rear of the motor.
- 2. Inspect connector: Ensure the tach wires are firmly connected and not broken or rubbed through.
- 3. Test tach coil: Measure resistance across the tach terminals (refer to tech sheet; often a few hundred ohms). Replace the motor if the tach is open or shorted.
- 4. Check belt and pulley (if belt-driven): Ensure the belt is tight and not slipping; a slipping belt can cause incorrect speed feedback.
Note: If motor and tach test good, suspect the main control board.
