Hello Aldrin. The model number is not working. You will need to check all connections on the new board. Usually dashes are connections or bad door switches.

Hello Randy, These two parts have different part numbers because they are different. They will not interchange because, even if they connected to the wiring, the controls are programmed differently and would not work in a model they are not listed for 110.45991400. The only CCU that will work for this model number is WP8182689.

Hello Mike. You need to look for loose or bad connections on the wires and see if there are any broken wires on the unit. It sounds like something did not get plugged back in on the unit.

James, The F11 error is a serial communication error which means that the communication between the Central control unit (CCU) and the Motor control (MCU) cannot be sent correctly. You will want to look at the following : 1. Unplug washer or disconnect power. 2. Check wire harness connections to the MCU, the motor, and Central Control Unit (CCU). 3. Check the drive system for any worn or failed components. 4. Plug in washer or reconnect power. 5. Verify CCU operation by running a Diagnostic test or any cycle. 6. Check the MCU by looking for operations of the drive motor. 7. Check the drive motor for powered rotations. 8. Check that the serial harness at the MCU is not mounted upside down. The wires should be to the left when facing the MCU connectors. The F14 error code is an EEPROM error which means that the CCU receives its data from an EEPROM onboard the CCU. IF there is an error reading this data it will cause the error. A power glitch could cause this error. Verify CCU operation by running a diagnostic test or any cycle. Based on these 2 issues it sounds like the CCU would be the issue with the unit.

Donnie, The F1 error code is an indication of Pump driver/Main relay/EEPROM error. Check for loose power outlet. A loose power plug in the wall can create a line noise and issues. Check if the washer is on a dedicated circuit. Other devices on same circuit can create line noise and cause this issue. Unplug the washer or disconnect power. Make sure that wire harness connections from the CCU are not broken or with wires detached, and that connector internal pins are visible. Make sure that all green wires (ground harness system) are not broken or detached. Make sure the two ground switches are pressed correctly by the toe and rear panels. Make sure all connectors are fully seated. Plug in washer or reconnect power. Check for power going to CCU by listening for a click in the CCU when unit is plugged in washer or when reconnecting power. If the unit still has the error then the control board would need to be replaced.

Anne, The F06 error code is an indication that there is a drive motor tachometer error. You will want to unplug the washer and check the wire harness connection between the motor and motor control unit (MCU) and from the MCU to the central control unit (CCU). Also check for operation of the drive motor and for drive motor powered rotations. If the wiring checks ok then you would also want to access the tech sheet and do the drive motor and MCU test on the unit. If both check ok then the CCU would need to be replaced.

Hello Peter. The error code you provided is for door lock failure on the unit. You want to make sure the wiring harness is good, and the connections. If so, you will need to order and replace the door lock assembly WP8182634.
