Thank you, Sir!

Amazing video!!! i have a red door blinking sign!! and nothing happens when I click the button. LCD and the control panel is working fine, its just that wehn i press the start button I get the blinking red door button on LCD and nothing happens. The time shows on the LCD and the washer doesnt run.

Found this out the hard way

Does the same work on the drivers seat?

Mine doesn't work when it's cold... Very annoying.

Yep!! You save me....today i was cleaning up my DeWALT with my air compressor...Then it's stop working....opening up the thing...then i check the motor connect directly on 120V....it was working fine...so the issue was the switch.....it was full of debris and sawdust because i'm using it in my small single garage woodshop ...So i clean up the thing...and you know what...it's working like new...Thanks for the tips !! So many peoples buying DeWALT tools...??.The switch should be more protect from sawdust and debris...DeWALT should take notes !! #DeWALT

I have an Amana washer that I replaced the control panel but it didn't fix the issue. Would the ecu need to be swapped out uf it keeps stating power failure? The control lights and everything come on and then it shutts off on its own

Thank you replaced mine today and is fixed! Great video!

Thank you for this vid bro. I was about to purchase a new replacement switch and you just saved me $20 on a switch. Weird that Dewalt did not even changed the switch type. I thought it was just me having issues with this vacuum, turns out we are a community of it already. 😂😂

Thanks for the video, I might have missed it but what were your symptoms? My washer is beeping erratically and stopping during cycle

Long shot, but do you still have those pictures? I assumed the terminals would only go in specific spots but as I took it apart I realized my mistake

Thank you. Novice and I fixed it !

Great job helped me

Your video is a life saver. I suspect the fuse on my motherboard is broken so I'm in the midst of removing the board.

Thank you for sharing this I have now repaired my dcv584l following your great advice. It started playing up on a job today and then stoped completely. I thought the worst and assumed It had died. But no, it seems as good as new - hooray 🙌! Also - if any one needs to replace the hose - as I had to recently as the original had rusted to bits from wet use. I found that a pretty much standard extendable hose would fit the connections just fine- less than half the price of the Dewalt replacement. 🇬🇧👍🏻

Thanks! A rat shewed up my harness wiring, ordered the part 14$ and installation was not going well till saw your video!

Whirlpool is now junk

very helpful video thanks a lot

Do you have photos of where the wires were plugged in? I pulled mine out and 3 wires were no longer connected.

These electronic front-load washers and the higher cost are not worth it. Some settings can take an hour or two to do a load. I rather use more water and still be young when the clothes are finished. I had coin laundries and these machines between cost and time to finish a load would bankrupt me.

I used to have laundries and took care of 500 commercial washers and dryers and trying to get tech support from Whirlpool is non existent. They want to sell service calls. Hours of searching the web for bits and pieces of data is pain. Electronics are more pain in the butt than mechanical timers and such. They want us replacing boards costing hundreds when maybe only a software issue or 10 cent component bad on the board.

I can the ACU board and it still will not power on…the green light on the acu board just flashing but no life to the machine…can someone help me

THANK YOU!! I have the exact same issue and also went through replacing the control panel and all before realizing it was the ACU and there are zero videos for this model. All videos show an ACU in the front corner that is just easily removed after taking off the top. What a pain! And my machine is only 1.5 years old. I thought Whirlpool was a good brand... lesson learned there. Now to roll up my sleeves and get this taken care of tonight.

Having a hard time on the bottom one if red or brown???

Can you show your new terminals went I can't tell if I am colorblind if red or brown on the harness??

Mine comes with a tiny ball bearing to make it interesting. P.o.s

Helpful!

Thanks for the video! I was able to install the new one before I found your video, but I need help with where the wires go. Ugh I didn’t take the right photos. Anyway you can show your pictures of the wiring set up. Please!!

Does anyone know the fuse part number?

Nothing in my owners manual about this “Loc” error code. I HATE that I have to hold any buttons! I don’t have kids, so why is this something I’m stuck with? Thanks for showing me that all I had to do was hold the “Extra Rinse” button to clear it! THANKS!!!

Great video helped a lot exact same model my symptoms were after countdown would not start .in diagnostic mode. Screen went blank no codes then powered off. like you, I started with replacing the door lock switch when removing and putting on my ohmmeter and simulating door closed three prongs all red open. This is normal.($70 later)😢 I tried to get appliance repair to come with the part explaining all the troubleshooting I have done,no luck with that. I’m in southwest Virginia. Everything is 2 to 3 weeks .now waiting for part to show up. lowest price I could fine with shipping was just under $300. I decided to roll the dice purchased on eBay allegedly new in box with three-year warranty total $165, to be continued

Also worked for the DCV 517 switch. On mine the contacts had fused on one side, and it wouldn't shut off. I cleaned the contacts, applied silicon lube to the rocker arm contact points, and reversed the contacts -- putting the contact that hadn't fused on the side that had fused before. Works like a champ, now. Not sure how long the fix will last or why it fused. I have a 60 V battery that is supposed to auto switch to 20 V. I suspect using that was what caused it to fuse. Amazing, a switch that you can take apart. How old school but perfectly practical.

I bought an WFW5620HW. It is 9 months old. The control board is broke, Under warranty. Service person has to order the part. Very inconvenient. They should stock these. But that's not the issue. Whirlpool was once a quality product. Not any more. I would not suggest Whirlpool to anyone. Instead of building a high quality product Whirlpool wants the public to give them more money with their so-called Service Plan. B***S***. They are using inferior electronic parts. Fact: Circuit boards and IC's should last 40 Years. Mine broke in 9 months. This video has the control board for the WFW5620. Most videos don't show this board. At least this person did. This person stated he cut a connector because he couldn't get his hand it. You NEVER do that. All he had to do was to remove (loosen) the board first then he could remove the connection. Connectors are there for a reason.

i literally bought mine a couple days ago and have the same problem. very helpful and hella random that you just posted this a day ago

Turns out this also works for the 4 Gallon DXV04T vac. Thanks for taking the time to make this video! I would have been clueless on how to fix this myself.

I JUST SWITCHED OUT MY MOTHERBOARD TODAY AND WITH THE NEW BOARD THE LCD SCREEN IS NOW BLANK 😪 ANY SUGGESTIONS?

Excellent video! Thanks for sharing. Did you purchase the part directly from Whirlpool?

Getting error code F6 E3, generic error that indicates the board is not communicating with something, so helpful. I went into the Diagnostic Submenu, cleared the error code, ran a few diagnostic tests, determined everything worked except the unit would not spin. There is individual Test #7 that is suppose to drain (if needed) and then spin for 5 minutes. Mine drained, but no spin and then threw the F6 E3 code. Also ran the Quick Test with 12 mini steps, again everything worked...door locked, cold valve fill, hot valve fill, drain, recirc pump, drain again, but no spin...and threw the F6 E3. I called a local repair shop to see what they thought, either the control board or the rotor/stator/motor (seemed more logical to me since the Spin is what generated the error code). But they said most likely the control board. So that is what I'm trying first. Mine is a little different model, wfw8620hc3, but looks identical. I watched your video to see if there was a trick to getting the control board off...Thanks, I knew after taking the screw off it had to be something simple, but I couldn't get it to slide off...now I see it's a zig zag slot, going up then straight.

It's so unacceptable for these Whirlpool models this new to burn through boards. Same issue times 2. New board lasted 8 months then went. Junk...

Hello great video...where did you buy from?

TY for this video, my board just fried, no codes or power. I needed to know which panels I needed to remove. TY again.

where did you buy it?

Just fixed mines thanks for making this video bro 🙏 exact same issues those little prongs came out and the housing that holds them wasn't stay in tight so I wrapped the whole thing in electrical tape so the clips on the switch squeeze better holding them together tight to prevent it falling out again

Thanks for the video. You made it look easy enough and I fixed my switch issue.

Hola buenas noches maestro tengo una alarma la pf quiero saber cuál es la falla

Hi, my machine just would turn on. The only thing that it would do is lock and unlock when I held the rinse. Was this the same issue you had?

Guys there is a diagnostic mode and you can make it do test 12, my machine would lock actually lock the door then, but still no spin

The front panel on this washer isn't the most obvious on how to do things. After I got the LOC error on mine i was able somehow to do a sequence to get it unlocked. I think i hit the power and then immediately hit and held down that extra rinse button while the LOC was still lit up, think i saw a 3, 2, 1 countdown on the right...although i won't swear to that, not sure if i continued to press Start or not..but yeah, hopefully don't have to do that again. whew.

How where the brushes I have alot of screws .I'm hoping I don't have a screw loose need help

Thank you! I’ve been scouring the internet to find a solution! Thank you thank you!
