[SIZE=3]Machine will not spin. I took it to my brother’s today to troubleshoot, and it was not hooked up to water. We followed the troubleshooting guide (part no. 3968687)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]-It is not the lid switch[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]-The belt looks fine[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]-The water level switch seems fine[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]-We checked the Cycle & Temp switches using an ohmmeter – they seem to be fine[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]-We checked all the harness pin nos according to the manual…they all seem to be fine[/SIZE]

[SIZE=3]Also, while doing tests today, it seems it won’t agitate now. But we didn’t have water in the machine….should that matter?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]So we’ve narrowed down the problem to replacing the control board (part # 3970630).[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]But the part is almost $200 and not returnable because it is an electrical part. (If it doesn’t fix the problem, we wasted $200.)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]Is there anything else we should do to determine if this is the problem?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3] [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]Also, I read somewhere that the spin basket may be seized…how do you check this?[/SIZE]

[SIZE=3]Thanks so much for your help…we’re desperate to fix this because we live in a motorhome and we can’t find another washing machine to fit in the tight space![/SIZE]
