5 TROUBLESHOOTING
Causes
Explanation
Motor Coupling
If the washer won't spin the motor coupling might have failed.
The motor coupling connects the motor to the washer
transmission. It is designed to fail if the washer is overloaded
in order to protect both the motor and transmission.
Drive Belt（V-BELT）
If the washer won't spin, check the drive belt. If the belt is
broken or if it isn't tight on the pulleys the washer won't spin
properly.
Clutch
The clutch assembly makes the connection between the
transmission and the inner tub. As the clutch wears out it may
prevent the tub from spinning. The clutch is not repairable, if
it is loud or not working properly it will need to be replaced.
Motor capacitor
The assembly of electric capacitor is mainly used to start
motor and control the motor rotation direction. If the motor
capacitor is defective the washer may not work at all or
function properly.
Drive Motor
This is not common. Check all of the other related parts to
this symptom before replacing the motor. If the motor is
visibly burned out or physically damaged it will have to be
replaced.
Main Control Board(PCB)
If the washer won't spin the PCB also might be defective. The
motor control board provides power to the motor as well as
direction and force. If the motor control board is defective
the washer may not work at all or function properly.
