  • Common failure symptoms: won't spin or agitate; starts then stops; intermittent or slow rotation
  • Visible burn marks, odor, or damaged components on the board
  • Verify power, wiring, and motor condition before condemning the board
What's included:
  • One motor control board
Install notes:
  • Disconnect power and turn off water before service; allow components to discharge
  • Use ESD precautions and handle the board by its edges
  • Access location varies by model; photograph connectors and transfer them one at a time
  • Inspect the drive motor, wiring harness, and drive components for shorts before powering up; run diagnostics after installation

Answer

Hello Nick, F11 is a MOTOR CONTROL UNIT ERROR as per the tech sheet. The Motor Control Unit has internal failure, repeating under or over voltage, or over current conditions. Can also be caused by a momentary loss of neutral feed to the MCU during the spin cycle. If failure occurs during high-speed spin, the door unlocks after 3 minutes. Possible Causes/Procedure 1. Unplug washer or disconnect power. 2. Check wire harness connections between the drive motor and the Motor Control Unit (MCU), and between the MCU and the Central Control Unit (CCU). Check the motor and do a continuity test. 3. Plug in washer or reconnect power. 4. Run a Diagnostic Test and run the motor. If it does not run, replace the MCU board.
