washing machine repair HELP

GE modle WJRE5500G2WW
replaced board 2 months ago.
The washer stoped spin cyicle
where do I start to look for what broke. I took off the front. Did not see anything out of place.
Filling it now to see if it washes.

The lid maganict swich looks yelow on the under side. Could it be that simple ?

I don't have much to offer, but my washer sometimes freaks out and I have to do a 'reset'.

Basically, I have to press a series of buttons and that always solves my problems.

Get yourself a Woman

reset nothing

Could be that switch It keeps the washer from cycling when open to avoid injury will it fill up if the dial is set to that?

yes fills with lid up

I’d Check that switch see if you can jump the 2 wires and set it to wash again it will fill if that switch is bad but not cycle if the switch is bad.

This ^ tape them together and let it run ...

Thats what I was going to do.
But past experances told me to ask first

NO go.
Moror is not getting swiched on

Pump works

Any more ideas ?

Motor and pump are different things motor could be out?

no burn out moror small.

Is your timer knob the type that you can advance by hand to "spin", or "wash"? If so advance it and see if the motor runs. If the washer fills and cut off, a switch should close that advances the timer to "wash" which starts the motor.

Keep track of your tools...I still have a ratchet and deep well socket inside the housing of my dryer from when I replaced a pulley. Didn’t realize it until I had put it back together and wasn’t about to take it back apart. I’ll get it back when it finally quits running, whenever that is....

Probably something broken in the selector knob unit. I have found them to be the first thing to break. Could be something mechanical that broke or a switch contact fried in the knob assembly or a wire came loos on a connector. Could be a drive belt but I think you would still be able to hear the motor running but maybe not.

Shoulda got a Maytag

I would go back to the last maintenance performed & check the connections in case something rattled loose on the board that was replaced. If nothing there break out the meter, some have a wiring diagram inside.

You said the motor is not switching on, I assume it's not spinning. If it is there is a nylon bushing or gear between the motor & tub they will wear out. I think it's safety feature designed to shear if something or somebody gets caught in the tub.

Good luck!

All swiches are on a Board. That was replaced about 2 months ago.

Google you make, model and problem. Might find something there.

Always possible that the new board died too.

speed queen commercial is the only way to go

The boards are over $100 Hate to spend that and not fix the machine

TTT

TTT

Drag your clothes behind the boat. Or go to the laundry mat. LOL

How old is the machine ?

Here ya go, Newt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ARE you sure you crossed the wire on the lid switch. 99.9% of the time its that BUT the other .1 % it can be the timer failing to turn. Cut the wires ant twist them together if you didn't. IF it's the timer not moving pat the fill spot if you move it it will run just not go on in the cycle.

Take that and put towards a speed queen. !!!

Probably the motor coupling. Eric

Normally the smell will tell you if that's whats gone out
Or just move it out there will be a pile of black rubber under it.

I had problems with all kind of brands! From the advice from here, I bought a speed queen. Best money I ever spent.

Move the timer to "wash" and the motor should run. If it doesnt run, do the relays on the board have a push to test button on them? If so push the motor relay and the motor should run. If it runs that tells you either the timer is not energizing the relay, or the relay is bad, but the good news is the motor is good.

Isn't the board still under warranty?

When this happened to me it was the timer - switched it out and it works great - if your timer is not advancing that’s the problem

I am not saying this will fix your problem but doesn’t take much to try. Have you unplugged it from the outlet and then after 30 seconds plug it back in? It could be as simple as needing a reset.

I would just love to buy a clothes washer that had 3 settings for water temp(cold warm,hot) 3 settings for amount of water(low, med, large) and 3 setting for cleaning cycles (delicate, permanent press, and heavy soiled).
