M.G. for Model Number FAFW4221LW0 Originally my washer wouldn't start, the door lock button wouldn't light up. I replace the door strike and the problem continued. I tried testing the wires to the door catch and for 120, in the process something went wrong there was a spark and the breaker tripped. Now nothing comes on. 1st question is there a fuse in the control box, 2nd question why wont the machine start.
Answer M. G., You will want to check to make sure that there is power getting to the control board. This would be checked on the J1 connector for 120 vac. If there is power to the control board but the power will not come on then you will need to replace the control. There is no fuse in the control panel that can be replaced and the most likely cause of the unit not starting would be the door lock assembly being faulty. Read More...
