LC3 - Overview

First I removed the top panel held by four screws at rear of panel, pulling the panel foward and up. Then disconnected the power and water connections. Then I removed the two screws holding the flow valve to the washer rear panel,pulled the valve foward ,removed the two electric connectors, pinched the water clamp with pliers and removed the water connection to the valve. Then replaced with the new valve followed the above steps in reverse order, finishing up by re placing the water connections and power. Then checked fo proper replacenent and leaks before replacing top panel.

Remove the main power disconnect. Remove the top cover and the fan-side side panel. Disconnect the thermister from the main circuit board located under top panel. Remove the two thermister sensors from the holders attached to suction piping. Install the new thermisters and reconnect the harness to the circuit board. Reinstall top cover and side panel. Reinstall main power disconnect. Verify that error code has cleared. Operate the system normally.

Checked problem on-line and discovered it was the water inlet valve. Matched the part on part select. Com. Finding the part was very easy. Part select had a grid behind the picture to help determine the size and pictures from all sides. Removing the old part, matching it, and replacement took a total of 30 minutes. I now have clean clothes.
