Gary C for Model Number WTW5640XW0 I have a similar problem that others have asked however I have specific info regarding my test procedures. First I ran internal diagnostics and got the following codes F0/E5- Off balanced Load, F1/E2 - Motor Control Fault, F3/E2- Inlet water temp Fault. F5/E1- Lid Switch Fault. I can explain most of the trouble codes except F1/E2. Now my symptoms are as follows: When turning on the machine it cycles to test the load. When it gets ready to start there is a loud buzzing sound from the start capacitor which will not stop unless the machine is unplugged. I tested the capacitor with an ohm meter and it sweeps up and goes to zero on both terminals. Am I looking at a control board or capacitor?
Answer Gary, It sounds like the capacitor is good if it gives you a resistance then drops to 0. You will want to get your tech sheet and on page 14 of the tech sheet there is a test for the drive system. You will want to run test 3b of the drive system to determine what the issue is. This could be a control issue, a motor issue or possibly a wire harness issue. If you have already tested the motor and the wiring and it is good then the control board would be the issue.
