SECTION F - OPERATION
Control
The control is mounted to the back of the console. The
control:
1. Provides power to the dispenser solenoids, wax
motor, door lock solenoid, drain pump and speed
control board.
2. Sends signals to the speed control board to tell it
what program to run and the heater control board to
control the heater.
3. Checks the status of the door switches, door light
switch, incoming water sensor and the drum water
sensor.
Drum Light Assembly (On select models)
The drum light assembly is made up of a 12 volt AC, 5
watt light that is embedded in the bellows,
a pushbutton switch that is closed when the door is open,
a stepdown transformer that reduces the voltage from
120 Volts to 12 Volts.
A circuit in the electronic control turns the light off when
the door is left open for more than three minutes.
Door Switch Assembly
The door switch assembly, located behind the front panel,
is a safety feature that prevents the washer from operating
when the door is open and locks the door in the spin
cycle.
