I have the washing machine in the title, we bought it about 3 years ago, but it was used. It will light the "sensing" LED, some water will be start running, then the water stops and the "lid locked" light will start blinking. You can hear and feel the lock trying to latch.
At first, I could remove the red cover on the lid lock module (I'm not sure of the correct term) and toggle the rocker back and forth a few times, put it back together and it would run at least one cycle (sometimes 3 or 4) before the behavior would start again.
Now it won't start at all. I replaced the lid lock module (part number w10404050) and it still won't work. I checked the resistance, yellow and white (J15 1 & 3) was 122. J15 3 & 4 ( white and red) had no value and J15 2 & 3 (blue and white) read 20 which is what the leads show when touched together.
Googling seems to indicate it is the main board, I'm hoping I'm wrong and am missing an easy (and cheaper) fix.
Thanks in advance for any help.
