Barry R Hummelstown , PA August 22, 2016 Appliance: General Electric Washer GTWN4250M0WS Flashing fill light with beep flashing 10 on motor card It's always a tough decision on how much time and money to spend on an older $500 appliance. Besides fixing things being in my nature, Appliance Parts policy of allowing returns for any reason made the decision a lot easier. My 2+hour project time was due to lots of research and analyses trying to pin-point the exact cause. It still came down to a toss up between the control card and the motor. The control card did not fix, the motor did. Part replacement was in the 15 - 30 minute range. A little bit of hang up with the motor installation as the instructions that actually came with the washer did not match the configuration of the motor mounts. Also problem on how to reinstall the belt but a Youtube video simplified that using a wire tie even though I didn't have the recommended tool. As motors are pretty reliable, I suspect it is the card and it's too bad you can't just order and replace the card making it a much cheaper fix.

Brad E Franklinton , NC July 24, 2015 Appliance: General Electric Washer PTWN6050M0WT Motor/inverter board assembly I unplugged all the plugs from the old motor assembly. Removed the belt from the pulley and unbolted the motor assembly. Installed the new assembly and plugged it in. Installed the belt and plugged up the various wiring. Plugged in the machine and presto, working great again. The only thing was a kit that comes in the package to fix a wiring problem with older models but I didn't need to use it, so takes a few moments to verify if your unit needs the kit or not. I could have bought the part a little cheaper from ebay or even used but no one offered the type of warranty that AppliancePartsPROS.com does. Awesome company.
