Symptom Probable Cause Suggested Remedy
Water level
too high
Pressure Switch Check for blockage in pressure switch hose. Check for
pressure switch opening circuit across terminals . Replace
switch if contacts do not open.
Water
drains
slowly
Drain System Check hoses and drain valve for blockage. Clean of inad-
equate size. if necessary. Check building drains for blockage
Machine
does not
turn
VFD Check VFD by removing top panel and record power or fault
lights are iluminated. If the fault light is on, turn power o
to machine at breaker for 2 minutes and turn poiwer back
on to reset. If still no display replace VFD
Machine
tumbles in
one direc-
tion
VFD Remove Top cover record if power light of fault lights are
displayed, wee front control for related codes. See fault code
section for more info.
VFD Inspect yellow enable wires from main relay PCB and at VFD
Excessive
vibration
Mounting System Check these areas: • Strength of mounting structure, con-
crete or base. • Mounting bolts may be loose and need
tightening.
Drive Belt Worn drive belt can cause vibration and noise.
Loading Note: Small loads contribute to out of balance loading and
increase vibration.
Machine
does not
spin
Pressure Switch Check pressure switch for continuity across terminals #21 &
#22 indicating pressure switch has reset to the empty posi-
tion. If no continuity, change pressure switch.
Machine
starts and
does not
operate
VFD Check yellow enable wires from relay PCB P13 & motor
P14to VFD advances through cycle are connected. Check
fault code on VFD before removing power from the drive.
Check orange P-15 wire for signal from door switches.
Machine
does not
stop
Main PCB Main PCB controls time cycle at end of cycle
Braking Resistors Check braking resistors for continuity. Verify ohms resis-
tance by Molex.
Water leak-
age around
loading door
Door Adjustment Door may need adjustment due to abuse or wear. Check
tightness around perimeter using a dollar bill. Adjust left
to right tightness by shims at door lock or hinge side. It is
important to center gasket to tub opening before tighten-
ing door to hinge bolts. Chalk may be used on tub front
to show point of contact with tub. If gasket is deformed,
worn, or damaged, replace. Refer to parts section for door
gasket expander kit.
Machine

Directly to
end of cycle
E-Stop buttor or
