This electronic control board is the appliance's main control module, managing user inputs and cycle functions so your appliance operates reliably. Replaces a failed control to restore normal operation of the console and programmed cycles. What it does:

• Interprets touchpad/selector inputs and runs the appliance's programmed cycles
• Controls display, timers, and cycle sequencing for proper operation
• Manages power to subsystems (motors, valves, heaters) as directed by settings
• Common symptom causes: unresponsive or blank display, control not accepting inputs, cycles not starting or stopping, or erroneous error codes

• One electronic control board

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning work to avoid shock
• Handle the board carefully and avoid static discharge; use anti-static precautions if available
• Access may require removing the console or back panel; keep fasteners organized during reassembly

This electronic control board coordinates the appliance's operations by processing inputs and sending power to critical components. Replacing a failed board can restore reliable performance when the unit won't start, stops mid-cycle, shows error codes, or behaves unpredictably.

• Directs cycle timing and power to motors, valves, heaters, and other loads
• Interprets user interface commands and sensor feedback to run selected programs
• Manages safety checks and built-in diagnostics
• Failure symptoms include: won't start/respond, cycle won't advance, stops mid-cycle, error codes, or intermittent/erratic operation

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Use ESD precautions and handle the board by the edges
• Transfer any brackets, covers, or jumpers from the original board if required
• Label or photograph wiring, then move one connector at a time to the matching terminals

• Helps stop loose or rattling trim and parts caused by missing or worn screws
• Restores proper alignment and secure mounting after repairs
• Works where sheet metal or thin substrates require self-tapping engagement
