Lockedfront load washer won't spin

posted on October 15, 2009 at 04:24PM Inappropriate?

Kenmore model 417.44152400 won't high speed spin during cycle. I can get it to spin in diagnostic mode. I changed the motor control board, still wouldn't spin, changed the main circuit board, still won't spin. When using diagnostic mode with new main board the lights don't chase each other instead they all flash at same time. but it still appears to go into diagnostic mode. After spending nearly $300 on boards do i now need to change the pressure switch?

Have you had a technician check it out, or have you been doing the service yourself?

That control is a ***** to change! you can get the knob and the shaft between the knob and the inside cam in the control off just one cog and the control wont work, it is tricky but you need to set the pin that goes into the knob and the other end goes inside the control for cycle selection. Be very careful because the power needs to be connected you can rotate the shaft from the knob end of the shaft and set it for a specific light. see which cycle that light indicates then line the knob up to that position on the panel and carefully slide it onto the shaft. It is the hardest controller to replace there is!
