Selector Switch Tests (Set TEMP SELECT: Warm/Warm - Initiate Entry Sequence) (Only on 4-temperature models)

The Selector Switch Tests have been designed to troubleshoot the rotary switches. During this test every position of each rotary switch is read and decoded by the microcontroller. The CYCLE/STATUS indicator LEDs display test results.

• CHECKING CYCLE SELECT SWITCH

Beginning at position 1 (NORMAL) turn the CYCLE SELECT switch clock-wise to all positions and note corresponding LED indi- cators. (Table 10)

• CHECKING TEMPERATURE SELECT SWITCH

Place the CYCLE SELECT switch in position 1 (NORMAL) and rotate the TEMP SELECT switch through all positions and note the cor- responding LED indicators. (Table 11)

To terminate this test and return to normal operation, unplug the washer power cord from the power outlet for more than five seconds and then plug the power cord back into the outlet.

Ohmmeter Resistance Tests

Many of the components of the washer can be checked with an ohmmeter. The washer must be disconnected from the power supply for these tests.

Resistance checks should be made at the 9-pin connector first. (Fig. 31) If any of the readings are out of range as stated in Table 12 or not operating properly check resistance readings at the component terminals. If the readings are still out of range, replace the suspect component.
