The washer machine doesn't start. It still shows the same message on the screen when I push the start button "sensing...pause" the error code is e53 (low voltage from motor control board). I verified wires (ok), motor is ok, I replaced motor control board, the door switch is ok, the door lock is ok, the heat element is ok and the probe for the water is ok. still have the same error code e53. Could you help me please?
For model number FAFS4473LR0
Hello Yves, Thank you for the question. The E53 error means that the Main Control Board is giving an low voltage. If the wiring between the main control board and the speed control board and if the wiring checks ok then replace the Main control board. We hope this helps!
1. Unplug unit. 2. Unscrew 2 nuts holding top in place in rear of unit using phillips head screwdriver. 3.Slide top back and remove. 4. Open door of washer and unscrew 2 screws holding in door lock unit. 5.Pull out unit from the top and install new unit reconnecting the 3 wire connections.
Door lock takes a beating due to flimsy washer door which does not align well and subsequently gets slammed each time which causes lock to malfunction telling the washer that it is not locked. Due to safety the washer will not go into the spin mode. Remove top lid (2 screws) open washer door and loosed the 2 screws holding the lock assembly in place. Reach down into the washer and unsnap the 3 wire harnesses. Reverse to reinstall. Very easy.
Removed the screws holding the door. (One was stuck a little so used an air drill with Phillips head to get the torque needed but someone with a strong grip could have done it as it came out very easily). I removed most of the screws holding the front to back of door to exchange the hinge. There was a problem with the old hinge slopping around and not allowing the door to align properly when shutting it. The new hinge works better. See note*** below on doorframe. I pretty much was able to get the door back together and make it work. I then exchanged the door striker with no problem. It has a built in key so you cannot attach it incorrectly. The next thing was to just reattach the door to the machine and it worked right off the bat. ------------- *** Unfortunately, there were two screw mounts in the Outer Door Frame - Chrome Part Number: PS3495258 that were broken. This doorframe is listed as a $200+ chrome part whereas it is actually a plastic material that is extremely over priced for what it is. Like I mentioned two of the screw mounts had broken off so those screws are just "decoration" now. (These are screws that basically hold the back cover to the front cover). If this becomes a problem, I will simply modify what I have and make the screws fit before I spend $200+ on that part. (It looks like this could be drilled out and a long screw and nut run through to make it work. TELL THE WASHER OPERATOR… just be careful opening and closing the unit (don't slam the door but carefully close it) and it should work a lot longer. I might investigate the make up of a washer the next time I buy one … but the chrome vs. plastic is a hard one to spot. I hope this helps.
