This bloke deserves a medal! He is brilliant at this - simple clear concise and very knowledgeable. He does not talk down to his audience at all and is just very impressive. I actually did not need this tutorial as the fault I had turned out to be in the electrical socket, However i kept watching because he was just so very good, As an ex teacher I wish I could have done my job even half as well!

taking a picture before continuing is universally always a very great idea!! I do this a lot on most projects!

Thanks for that- good demo of how to replace capacitors- Absolutely the main reason for failed pCB's in everything thats made in China these days, tellys, plug in power supplies, SKY Boxes- the list goes on, I've saved us thousands doing this!

Thank u so much for tutorial, my whirlpool recently developed this same very issue. Now i at least have an idea what the issue might be. Ur very good at explaining. Cheers😊

Great advise im having the same problem with machine cutting out, i will take a look at my circuit board hopefully it maybe something simple. Many thanks

Hi, this is excellent 👍👌 I have a problem with the same start and stop. Thank you.

Today i repair mine exactly the same model and tha same problem. Wish i had see this video earlier before disassembly the hole washing machine.

Thank You Sir, for your honest approach to Troubleshooting a malfunctioning Washer. All, I've seen so far is that if a circuit board is Bad there is Nothing to be done - except to Replace it. It is refreshing to see that there are honest professionals that don't mind showing that electronics can be repaired and it doesn't necessarily mean that you have to Buy a New Board at $300-400 dollars a pop.

When i starts its spin then around 5 mins its stop then i turn off the switch and i on again then its ok again and 5mins again it stop.

Wow, I expected 'how to replace a door switcg' or 'how to replace a control board' - no one talks about board level repair anymore. Apparently everyone is fooled into thinking a $200usd board must be replace even though parts are under $1 and time is about the same. It's criminal. I pick up used junk to fix for pennies. Thank you, consumer suckas! Just got a front loader washer, replaced caps on an imac and a Samsung large TV before (free)!

Dear, I want to ask you that If light is went out while running washing machine. When light comes to kya program fir se start hoga ya wahi se hi shut hoga

Great tutorial!!! Looking forward to more board level repairs

If the washer is staying locked after cutting out during load sensing- is it more likely a door lock problem or what you fixed here on the circuit board. It also has a very faint sound coming from it? I do not I can unplug it to get it to unlock. So when I plug it back in after a 3-5 min unplug, the door will open but then it will start beeping at me so I close the door and it relocks 🤔

Nice tutorial

Thanks its good to gain more knowledge mostly for the beginner in this field.

Brilliant Thank you You d be a great teacher

Hi again how-2-repair.thanks for vids great help. i found my problem and its the module board not the control panel, but having difficulty finding parts, as my washer is 16yrs old parts are obsolete, but with watching you vid one of the chips that is blown is a link switch, but turning over the module board there is a S shape black scorch mark and i should say its taken afew more components out aswell as itself, but im prepared to buy and replace the components myself as really cant afford anew washer at moment, ANY help or advice would be VERY grateful.Thanks Matt

Hi, maybe you or someone on the forum can help me with my problem? My Panda PAN70SW washing machine not start working after turning it on and shows code C1 and all lights start blinking. After unplug power cord and plug it again washer starts washing cycle. After finishing cycle the problem appears again. What's the problem?

Subbed. Great, informative video.

Hi how about dryer pcb, already replace the ic make dryer stop in 5 minit, but after replace it, the pcb make tripping, can u tell what i need to do, thanks in advance

My washer is GE, was turned on, display door locked after about 23 seconds, I heard one soft click and then door lock released automatically. I have replaced a circuit board and inlet valve and door lock, but the machine is still not working. Pleased hep find it's problem.

Subscribed! I need a new washer and everyone was telling me to 'stay away from electronics', but they all are and I'm a sparky who fixes things. I'd rather deal with this than relays and new shock parts, etc. We'll see.

muy buen vide0. Muchas gracias por sus video estoy empezando en esto delas lavadoras

I have an electrolux eww1476wd and after doing laundry, it does not want to turn on the dryer heater. the fan that exchanges the air in the drum from the machine turns on, but the heater does not want to. NTC sensors show resistance. the electronics have no mechanical damage and the relays are all OK. Maybe it needs to be reset, but I can't find anywhere how to do it??

My LG front loader machine stopped.i replaced the main circuit board and it's still dead. The outlet is ok, because the dryer runs from the same outlet. I paid$240 for that part! I'm pissed, now I'm thinking it's the display controller board

As a television Engineer with 35 years experience you have explained this brilliantly step by step keep up the step by step instructions bet you cant find the fault on a Hoover washer vt814/d21 that goes through cycle but will not heat water

great video , learnt a lot

Hi how-2-repair. Thank you for your video. I have a question hoping you ca help me. I have a Bosch machine that is not working since one week. I don't know what is the problem and I don't know if it's an error or a piece of the machine. When I choose a program with the door open and then I close the door, the machine tries to put the lock of the door several times (for about 10 seconds) but then nothing happens. The "start" button flashes and I try to activate it but notihng happens. So I tried to program the machine but this time whit the door closed. Again, we hear that the machine tries to put the lock of the door several times but nothing happens and even worst, if I touch the "start" button during the first 5 second, the circuit breakers leap. I thought that it could be the heater or the interference filter but both are ok. Can you help me please??? I don't know if it's just an error of the circuit (even if I don't have an error code on the display). Thank you very much you for your help.

'water tank full ' light comes on every few minutes on our Beko condenser dryer. There isn't any water in the tank though. machine will start again but light comes back on, andthe machine stops again.

Amazing content!

Hello, I have a beko 7 series excellence wm, I have gone through the diagnostic cycle and it all corresponds to your tutorial video. However when I then try to use the machine the water runs through the draw as it is supposed to but the water just runs straight through the machine and it does not fill up, any suggestions would be appreciated TIA regards wayne

The kuche dryer model DVF7000WT

Where are you staying?

hi im petergmal frome eygpt and i stay in luxor im very thanks for this vedio but i have washing machin ariston banil very good but motor not work

Hello Sir, my samsung front load run only once in a day and then never runs again ... it only starts working next day... please assist.

Our siemens stops, display goes off. After about 15 minutes, the machine starts again where it left off. This only happens occasionally

they make stuff more and more complicated where more and more can go wrong i'd be happy finding the old wringer washers with one off on switch hahahah

I have just watched your video on washing stop and starts.I have got exactly the same problem.If i send you the motherboard,can you repair it and send it back to me with your costs etc?Thanks

Good job sir I want di soldering gun

Great video, TYFS

Capacitors are measured in Farad.......with a D not Faran ! there is no N They are named after Michael Farady......obviously the capacitance is so small it's measured in Micro Farad

Dear sir we have siemens washing machine it's showing e-13 errors code

machine runs fine until there are 6 minutes left in the cycle and then it turns off without spinning or counting down anymore.

I love how eloquently the British speak English..... certainly helps to make it more clear when you're trying to understand what's going on ! We Americans have truly "butchered",lol lol the English language sorry to say...~True.....

Fantastic! Cheers!

ELBA Full o outmetacal washing machine model wd1496 no powar kaise repair work for give me tarik

Ok

When I start it just show tap

goa jab man

My samsung washing machine spin and the screen goes off

i have a washing machine that stop on the road

You got lucky. Most capacitor failures can't be visually seen.

Yes. Bc the average person just has the tools necessary to inspect and replace these parts. Cool to know, but unrealistic to fix yourself

Réparations

It's really easy, just a few pounds for parts, plus a twenty-thirty years of experience, and hands made of gold :-) Thank you!

Hey there. Great video thanks. My caps all look fine, so I'm wondering if it's the lynk switch ic. What does that do exactly? If my machine is cold the screen will start up and stay on for 3 secs, if it's not long since I tried to fire it up, it won't stay on long at all if not start up at all

Hi how-2-repair. got a zanussi FJD 1466w, started my wash and after about 5 mins there was aloud click sound come from the washer and it stopped and all lights except the power light have all gone off on the control panel, im not sure if that loud click was the door lock coming off as the washer stopped, ive turned off and back on but nothing, does this sound like a new control panel replacment? thanks for ur time and help Matt

Wow what a great video. Wonder why some people thumb down this good helpful video. Haters are loosers.

I had a Whirlpool Duet that would power itself off mid cycle but only in cool weather. It turned out to be the touchpad panel. It was sensitive to temperature or humidity or maybe both.

Hi the video was great. I own a LG front loading washing machine and it doesn't complete its cycle, goes off after 4 minutes, no matter what mode of wash you choose. You gave me the idea, that the control unit could be repaired than replacing it. So i got the courage to open it and the problem was the tube to the " Pressure Switch " was detached, Plugged it back in, the washing machine was ok. Thanks

Hi. Thanks for the nice video. I have Miele W3204 washing machine which is only working on the centrifugal and 15-minute washing programs. For all other programs, it stops after 2-3 minutes and the start light starts blinking. Pressing the start button restarts the machine, but it stops again after 2-3 minutes and the start light blinks again. Please suggest me how to fix. Thanks

hi , i got a maytag washer 4000 series model MHWE450WW00 that leaves the clothes wet and i saw it shut down when there was 11 minutes left last time. Any suggestions. thanks alot.

Fantastic video. Well worth the effort to try and do the repair. Thanks.

Hello, Can you please help me? I have Miele W1514. It turn off midcycle. I gave changed the cardboard. It worked for some months, then again the problem appeared. Sometimes it keeps working until the cycle is finished...othertimes, it shuts down. What could be the root of the problem? I am thankful to you.

Just helped me nice one

That's a classic capacitors going the average person won't attempt this...I would go for a higher value otherwise they go again..ie 16v I would put a 25v...

best video I have seen yet and I have seen MANY Thanks!!!

I have kenwood automatic washing machine front load & L:AC apear on display again again what does it mean?

So nice to hear someone who is genuinely knowledgeable. As someone said, you can watch these even when the job has been done. One happy subscriber.

Good day bro your channel content it's help me a lot as guide for washing machine repair.

I love how you get to the point quickly (unlike many other repair channels). I didn't have to skip once! Will try to take a look at the board. The issue I've got now is getting the washing machine out. It's stuck locked with water and clothes inside 😖

My twin tube washer spin and then stop i have to use my hand to support thr spin all d time to continue the wash

HELP! I have a Samsung Front Load Washer (Model WF365BTBGSF 4.1 cu ft). Thanks for the tip - I took a picture and it was very handy. Super technical support - but the newer machines wont let you fiddle with the PCBs given they are covered with a jelly style moisture barrier. Initially the washer stopped and displayed an error code (AE). I reset the machine. Removed the power cord and let it rest. I also reset the electrical breaker. The washer started back up and ran for the five minutes and then shut down completely. The AE code no longer displays - the machine display simply goes blank and eventually powers down. The AE - fault code indicates a communication issue of the washers main components. I opened the machine, inspected it (looked for obvious wear, burns disconnected/loose connections) and decided to replace the main control panel (DC92-01527C) - RESULT: NO Change. NOT CHEAP. Machine started up initially but powers down after 60-90 seconds. It continues to do this, provided it is unplugged or the electrical panel breaker has been turned off (removing all power to the machine) for an extended period before turning it back on. My sense is there is a capacitor somewhere that needs to be replaced. I saw two small capacitors on the main board but my guess is they regulate power to the components on the PCB and there must be another regulating the motor.

I am having a similar problem with my LGWT1101CW top loading washing machine. The components look fine. what other part on the circuit board could be causing my issue with it powering off and on all the time.

My ariston washing machine working since about 12 years without any problems but now it stop at washing step after about 10 minutes sometimes stops and sometimes nostrils....from your great point of view what is the reasons ... how I can repair Thank you very much

If a capacitor goes is there a chance it’ll get going again? My washing machine is 10 years old and it intermittently stops working. The cost of an engineer / new machine....I’m not sure what’s best x

Hi mate I have samsung ecobubble 8kg washer. On some of programs it runs but stops after 15-20 minutes. When I press the pause button on and off it starts again but stops again. When running it makes a constant sound but when it stop there's no sound. Any tips how to solve this problem. Seen you video on calibration, tried it but no luck.

Hi,I have a Samsung wobble technology washing machine,I'm experiencing frequent stopped and then it turn off for a while,must wait at least 30 minutes to start it again. What are the possible causes for that,any idea

B E R.

i have a washing maching of a Samsung model wfo700ncw that have only stuck on one program ie cotton, there is no child lock so i wonder what the problem might be.....pls help.

I wish it was that simple to fix with an old Miele Novotronic. Can't remove the control panel and can't even find the PCB. Hope there is an other tutorial available for that type of washing machine.

I'm my name is Mohammed I'm live India how purchase w/m pcb online India country pls tell me sir

Thank you a lot ! I hope, that I have same problem with my Candy Aqua 1000 t , it fill water for 15 s , and then stops. Same with squeezing clothes, it pumps out water and then stops

Thank you so much for your helpful videos ;)

Nice sharing video sir..keep it up

hii there I have a Grundig gwn 48430 cw washing machine that start and then stops after the door look clicks and then stays on wash with nothing happening

Also check power connection to the wall, especially if you use splitter, for example to plug in washing and drying machine into singe outlet. Splitter can corrode inside, nothing is visible outside, but due to moisture it can corrode inside over time and make these problems.

Hello, I have a question regarding my LG front load Direct Drive washer purchased in 2014. The original board malfunctioned on me and needed replacement. Before the board blew out on us there was this strange electric burning smell emitting from the washer. At first I thought it might be the heater and or thermistor, but they checked out normal with my multimeter. I replaced the board recently and started testing the machine with different sized and timed cycles. The top and rear panels are still detached until testing is completed. Yesterday I washed 4 loads of 1 hour cycles. Up through the 3rd load everything was normal, no smells, or error codes being displayed. After the 4th load chimed, I entered the garage and there was that electric burning odor again, just like the previous time prior to the machine going D O A. The smell emitted from the Direct Drive motor assembly and the aluminum cover that spins with the assembly was extremely HOTTER than normal to the touch. Is this a normal thing with these Direct Drive motor assembly? Should it emit this type of smell? The last time I smelled this type of electric was when the balast inside my light timer burned up/ Even thought the balast burned leaving a brown mark on the external surface, the timer continued functioning. Do you have any ideas regarding this issue? Have you or anyone you know, or customers every mentioned anything regarding this phenomemon? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. THx Robert

Thank you, it helps alot

Thank you!!! This was incredibly helpful. I've now subscribed too.

Top drawer video that pal!

I like it 👌

Good job

Mine starts then switches off after so long, if left it will eventually switch itself back on and finish the cycle...what could be causing this, it fills and drains fine also mines not a digital but basic front loader...?

Sir, I owned the lg 7 kg direct inverter front Loader recently before a month. dE 1 error came in between the cycle even the door was locked, and on and off in between and speed is also lower than normal, we replace mother board also, what to do sir?
