Troubleshooting Procedures
!WARNING
To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal injury or death, disconnect power to unit before servicing, unless testing requires power.
Fast Time Down Test
¤ While any test or cycle is running in Service Mode, pressing the Temperature key will advance the program to the next cycle stage.
Cycle stages are located at key locations in the machine operation. As the program is advanced it will index as follows: The end of each fill (the same as the beginning of a tumble session for Wash, or Rinse); at the beginning of a drain session; at the beginning of a spin session (at this position, check the water level, if over reset level, drain first before entering the spin function); at the beginning of a fill session; at the beginning of Bleach fill; at the beginning of Fabric Softener fill; and every 3 minutes during the tumble sessions (Wash, and Rinses).
Quick Service Cycle
While in Service Mode, pressing the Temperature and Soil Level key for 3seconds will start a Quick Service Cycle.
This will be a quick check of all systems. If display shows od then open and close door. Pressing Spin Speed will advance to the next cycle. The following steps are performed: Display shows “SC”.
1.Hot water for 5 seconds and then turn off.
2.Cold water for 5 seconds and then turn off.
3.Bleach valve for 5 seconds and then turn off.
4.Dispenser softener using cold water and bleach water for 5 seconds and then turn off.
5.Turn on Cold valves until the control detects proper water level. During this time, tumble at 45 rpm for 5seconds in a clockwise direction, pause for 2seconds, tumble at 45 rpm for 5 seconds in a counterclockwise direction, pause for 2 seconds. Continue pattern until the water level is detected. Minimum time for this segment to be 5 seconds. After water height is achieved, continue tumble pattern for another 14 seconds. If the washer is equipped, turn on heater for first 5 seconds of this tumble pattern. Advance the washer to next step if water is not connected to machine.
6.Drain and spin to maximum speed. Machine will achieve maximum speed using the safest, fastest method.
7.Display a “PA” (Passed) continuously for 5 seconds I no diagnostic codes were logged during the test. Washer will return to the normal Service Mode at the end of the 10 second period.
The “SC” in the display will blink as an indication of failure, and continue blinking until the quick service cycle test has reached the end. Any diagnostic code logged during this test will result in failure of the test, but will not necessarily stop the test. During the Quick Service Cycle, pressing the Spin Speed key will
advance to the next step. Pressing
the Rinse&Spin and Spin Only keys will suspend the machine at the current step for up to 10 minutes or until Delay
Start and Chime are pressed again. All LED’s should flash on and off while the system is suspended or on hold.
LED/Switch Test
While in Service Mode, press the Delay key to start a LED/Switch check. All the LED’s can be toggled or slewed by pressing the key associated with the LED or set of LED’s. All keys (including the OFF button) must be pressed within 5 minutes for this test to pass. “PA” will be displayed for five (5) seconds once all keys have been pressed and the test is completed. Following 20seconds of inactivity at any point, this test will exit without any display. The Power Off switch pad must be pressed twice within 30 seconds to cancel this test.
