Hi,

This is my first post on the site. I have a whirlpool duet washer WFW8300SW0, three years old, that I have been trying to fix for a week. I have a big family and really need this machine...

Problem: Door won’t unlock, won’t begin cycle.

It didn't spin at the end of a cycle, so I opened the front panel, and used the manual control to open the door. Now door won't open (pause light on, add a garment light on). the control panel lights work.

What I tried: cleaned the filter. Ran the diagnostic program: F-24 error code followed by Rince/Spin light, and door locking/pause light coming on. I checked all wire connections for wear/looseness, replaced the heat sensor, replaced the door lock (was getting inconsistent resistance readings from it when I tested it at the CCU as in the service manual). Oddly, after jiggling wire at the dispenser, and resetting the machine, I was able to get it to fill, but it would not agitate or spin (just showed minutes advancing on the timer).

I’m new at this and obviously replaced two good parts--do I need to replace the CCU?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!
