Saga of Samsung washer WA422PRHDWR/AA continues

This is effectively a bump of this thread: Samsung washer model WA422PRHDWR/AA stuck in spin cycle

I wanted to tinker with it a bit more, and I took off the pump assembly, which seemed to be the cause of most of my problems. Sometimes it would drain fine, sometimes not. I thought something might be stuck inside, and I replaced the pump in 2015, so I figured it wasn't the pump.

So, I took the pump off, took the impeller case off and it seems fine, it turns ok and no clogs. So then I hooked up an e-meter to the power inputs to the pump to see if it was receiving power, and I'll be damned if it was. So, it seems like the control board is sending power to the pump as per normal, but the pump doesn't seem to be working.

Thing is, it's a fairly simple A/C motor. power goes in one end, induces a magnetic field that runs the pump. There's not really a lot of things on it that can break. And the impeller turns freely.

Could it be the pump after all? Do pumps go bad after 3 years..........again? I guess I bought the first on in 2012, and replaced it in 2015, and here I am 4 years later, but 4 years for a washer pump that I use twice a weeks seems abysmally poor.

Trick is, the memorial day sales are going to expire next week, and if I can't fix it AND I miss the sale prices on new ones, I'm going to be slightly miffed.

Any thoughts? Just get a new pump?

*Update*

I plugged in the electrical leads halfway onto the prongs on the pump, and hooked up the e-meter to the pump electrical prongs while plugged in, and I couldn't read any electrical potential between the prongs. Then I unplugged the pump motor, and got a solid voltage reading on the power leads from the control board.

Does this mean there is a lack of continuity in the pump, which would mean it is busted?

LG WT1201CW water inlet valve replacement

I purchased a new water inlet valve for this washer, but I can't find any video's specific to this model that show how to open this washer up! Ive attached 2 photos. There are 2 screws that seem to hold the top rear silver cover in place, and 2 screws that hold the rear white portion of the cover (all screw locations indicated by arrows on the second photo). When the screws are removed from the white piece the entire top of the washer wants to life up, but seems to be held in place at the front of the washer. Anyone ever worked on one of these beasts? Could use some advice before I call someone to replace this valve for me.

Spin Failure

Eight year old washer won't go into spin cycle. Error code is F7 E1, Basket Speed Sensor Fault. I cleared the codes and rand the Automatic Test Mode and got the same code. I did the Manual Test Mode and tested the low spin, high spin, gentle agitation, and high agitation tests and they all seem to work fine.

The rotor isn't locked, spins freely.

I've removed and reattached the J2 and J16 harness connections from main control to motor and shifter.

I have NOT gotten into TEST #3a: Drive System Shifter.

Which part(s) of TEST #3a will be the most productive for me?

Thanks,
JP

04 Bosch nexxt 500 weird noise on spin

Hello everyone,,
Model number WFMC330SUC/04

hi there, our washer has started to make this odd noise on spin. I took a video of it..it's not a loud thumping, but more of a low pitch screeching. Can send the video if that helps! Tried uploading and it's too large of a file. Thanks

WF448AAP/XAA Samsung Washer Started Leaking, What part is this?

My Samsung washer (model number WF448AAP/XAA) starting leaking so I opened it and looked at where it was coming from. There is a white plastic part that connects 2 rubber hoses. It looks like it connects to the detergent and bleach reservoir. I notice there is a slight crack in the plastic. I have had this washer for about 7 years. When I do a quick wash (about 41 minutes), it happens at the 8 minute left mark. It doesn't leak water in the beginning of the wash cycle, only towards the end of the cycle when the washer is spinning very fast. Water sprays out for 1 minute or so.

What is the purpose of this part?
What is this part called?
What is the part number?
Where can I order the part from?


I just googled and repairclinic.com or appliancepartspros.com or I can directly call samsung.

I just need to know what this part is called and if there is a way to get the part number somehow. Can anyone help please?

Bosch WFMC3301UC tub filling up with water each night....which part/valve is leaking water?

Hi All,

I have a Bosch Nexxt 500, WFMC3301UC that runs and washes fine, but each night the tub slowly fills with water. I have to run the "drain" mode on the daily manually each morning to clear the tub. The tub is clear after each wash, so i suspect there is some valve that is not closing fully letting my cold water past slowly filling the stainless tub. There are no leaks under the washer that i have noticed. If i turn off the cold water valve at the wall then the tub does not fill overnight (its a slow fill).

Does anybody know which part this might be? Thanks!

AEG LW1460 Water not heating

Hi there, AEG LW1460.

This washer has only a cold water inlet, and an internal water heater. However, the heating function no longer works. Otherwise all cycles complete normally.

- I opened the washer and tested the 230V 1950W element with an ohmmeter: 25Ω or so.
- The 4.8 kΩ NTC thermistor was an open circuit (infinite resistance).

I ordered the thermistor and installed it today. the new thermistor reads about 8.5 kΩ at a water temperature around 15ºC.

However, the washer is still not heating. The element continues to check out at 25 ohms or so.

One funny thing is that measuring AC voltage between either terminal of the heater element and ground gives me 120V, but voltage between the two element terminals is 0. I find that strange because this is a 230 V unit and the heater is stamped as 230 V as well.

Options:
1. Replace the element (includes another new thermistor) for around $200 CAD.
2. Call in the tech to diagnose properly for around $200 CAD + parts.
3. Any other ideas?

Would be very happy to have your views or any other options.

LG Washer WM2301HR Won't Start.

I had standing water so I changed the drain pump according to appliancepartspros video.It took me a week because I have a life and later needed a spring spreader. Once everything was finally together it didn't start.

I ensured the plug itself was working. I checked the plug was firmly inserted. And, I checked the circuit breaker. All wires were connected. I also tried a hard reset.

It was working fine up until the standing water and I hadn't started it up again until this point. Now I'm at a loss and hoping someone can help.

Samsung washer model WA422PRHDWR/AA stuck in spin cycle

So, my WA422PRHDWR/AA samsung washer has an issue where it just gets stuck in the spin cycle.

There's no abnormal sounds, it drains fine, it just spins and spins and spins. It has an estimated timer on that usually is in the ~15 minute range, but it'll stay there without changing for literally hours. Eventually I just get tired and turn it off manually.

The clothes come out mostly dry, maybe a little more damp than usual.

I've looked into basic troubleshooting, looked at diagnostic and calibration modes, and got a few unbalanced load errors in the diagnostic history. They rarely show up during normal use.

But nothing I can explain why it drains fine, but gets stuck in spin cycle.

My only thought is that the washer cylinder itself seems a bit wobbly. I posted a link to a video of it. Is it normal to have this much room to move the washer cylinder?

If it is not normal, how do I fix that?

LG WT4970CW UE cant solve

Top load washer, probably around 4 years old. It has a 413PN... serial so I believe that's with the newer control boards.

I get the UE code during the rinse cycle. Our older son used the speed wash all the time, and I never noticed him getting the error, but on normal and heavy duty washes the problem has gotten worse and worse, and now I cant get a load done.

I replaced the suspension rods, boom, first load with sheets not and a single problem. Was thrilled, but now it's worse than ever. I checked the stator nut on bottom, its tight. Washers balanced. I checked the water level pressure season tube that it's clear, and it is. I did notice the sensor had a rattle inside of it though.

I ran clean tub mode with nothing in the washer and it went through many cycles of of draining during the rinse cycle. I never pay attention to a normal wash, but it seemed like the pump was trying to drain water for a long time after the tub was already empty. Sign it might be the pressure switch?? It didnt through an error though even though it seem to go through many rinse cycles. I got tired of watching and I think it finally threw the UE in spin cycle.

I'm about to check the drain pump and hoses to make sure they're clear but anyone got any ideas? Maybe the water-level pressure switch, or something else related to UE?

Doesnt seem to be making odd noises

WJSR4160D5WW Only warm water when hot is selected.

Thanks for allowing me to post!!

I have a GE top loading washer with a water temp selector. I have replaced the hose, the inlet valve and solenoids and the water temp selector switch.
for some reason I only get barely warm water when the hot is selected. Is the cold water solenoid supposed to be open when the hot is selected? if I unplug the cold solenoid I get hot water. Is this normal operation?
Any help would be appreciated!!

Electrolux Front load screen reading wrong time.

I have a Electrolux model number
EIFLS60LT1. Problem with it is after you turn it on the screen shows low minutes for each cycle. Like 37 minutes for normal, 16 minutes for fast wash. All the cycles read less time then what it should be. I tried to reset it but no luck.

Gorenje w6523 forgot how it works

Dear people of the internet,

I have a weird problem with my Gorenje w6523 front loading washing machine.

I've bought it five years ago and it worked so far without a hitch. However, in the recent weeks it kinda just forgot how the liquids poured into it work. Let me explain that a bit better.

The washing liquid or powder are emptied from the reservoir and can be seen in the tub during the cycle, but the clothes are not cleaned after the cycle. Same goes for detergent / softener, filling the container up with softener would result in an all-enveloping great smell of fresh clothes while drying in the previous years, now nada. No flowery smell, no nothing. It kinda seems to me like the rinse or flush cycles happen prematurely, because judging by the end result the clothes are just spun around in warm water for two hours.
( at least the heating still works just fine )

I've tried the self cleaning program already, and after that the first one or two washes came out smelling just a bit like the softener if you were to smell it vigorously. But after that it's just wet spun clothes again.

There is no bad odour or any of the sorts, the internals look squeaky clean, the water jets above the cleaning solution reservoirs are clean, the reservoirs are clean and liquid can go through them without a problem.

So far I am out of ideas, any input appreciated.
