Corine M Ann Arbor , MI July 18, 2014 Short circuit on speed controller assembly of washing machine which prevented any spinning Super easy fix! After unplugging the laundry machine, just screwed off the back, screwed out the speed controller assembly (only 2 screws!), and screwed the new one back in. Plugged the machine back and tested it empty: worked like a charm! 3 People found this story helpful Do-It-Yourself Rating: Repair Time Estimate: Less than 15 minutes
