For Frigidaire Washer Timer (Part Number: OEM15553434)

Stephen August 28, 2012 for Model Number frgidaire LTF530FS1

washer will not go into spin cycle, just continues to wash. Pump was clogged recently but I cleared that and it ran fine for a week then this happened.

Hello Stephen. If there is power to the timer motor, but the timer does not advance, you will need to replace the timer 137394000. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html

Mark, It could be the timer 137394000 but you would probably want to check the wiring harness and motor control board, first. especially if you have a broken shock/damper. Theres no way of telling what may have been knocked loose, disconnected or damaged, if the tub was over rotating.

When I pull the timer knob out to start the machine the door lock light comes on, but the door lock does not energize and the machine does not fill with water and does does not spin or do anything actually, regardless of the position of the cycle selector (timer). I have cleaned/checked the pump and impeller already. Possibly the timer is bad?

1 Answer

Hello Jim,

From the sound of this, even though the door lock light comes on, there are multiple switches in the door lock mechanism. There is anther issue with the door lock assembly 131763256 and since they are not serviceable, it will have to be replaced.

Bud July 10, 2012 for Model Number FTF530FS1

We did find a nickel in the filter. Would that harm anything? Would that cause the washer not to spin or tumble. Also the impeller will spin a little but not all the way around. It will go to the right and left only to a certain distance. I take it the impeller is good? Thanks Bud :) Hi Bud. Remove the front lower cover. Remove the sump hose going to the outer tub and to the pump intake. There is a filter part # AP5630356 cup inside it. It collects the debris before it enters the pump impeller. Clear all debris. Check the impeller to see if it is spinning loose on the pump shaft. If it is replace it with part # AP4359998. Thank You.

Hello Bud,

The nickel probably didn't hurt anything since the trap caught it. What you need to do is see how fast the drain water is rushing out of the drain when pumping the water out. If it is a dribble, you will probably need to remove the hose from the outer tub that leads to the pump and check the opening for a small article of clothing that could have gotten between the tubs. If nothing is there, the drain pump 137221600 will have to be replaced.

Front load washer pumps water in and out, but it won't spin or tumble. I believe it is the timer. Before it did this, I heard a crackling sound. The belt is good. Thanks for any help :)

Melissa May 14, 2012 for Model Number FTF5305S0

My washer will not go into final spin. The tub fills, drains, and slow spins. The belt is intact. Clothes are still coming out soaking wet? I want to make sure I order the correct part.

1 Answer

Hi Melissa. Remove the lower front panel. Use a shop wet vac for water pick up. Get a dozen towels. Disconnect the pump intake hose (sump hose). It is the one connected to the tub as well. Inside you will find a trash catch cup in the 3rd rib of the hose. It is approx. 1" diameter by 3" deep. Clear it and the hose. Make sure there are no restrictions coming from the tub hole as well before putting it back on. Reach inside the tub hole and clear it. Then reach in the pump and clear the impeller. See if the impeller spins loose on the pump shaft. If so then the pump needs replaced. It is part # 137108000. Then reassemble all. Keep in mind that the pump has to completely empty and the door stay in the lock position so the pressure switch can be satisfied to allow high speed spin. If there are any front panel corner frame switches, make sure they are taped shut for testing. Test in a small cycle w/no clothes. It will be advantageous to find the supplied tech sheet inside the cabinet to aid you in the diagnosis. It allows you to put the unit in a diagnostic mode which brings up fault codes and tells you which circuit needs assistance. Thank You.

Nancy November 28, 2011 for Model Number GLTF530DS0

No power at all to the washer. It is a front loader. I had a repair person do the diagnostics. He said it needed a new timer. Seems like an easy repair job once I have the part. Does this sound like something that would cause the machine to get no power?
