Post Frigidaire frontloader won't wash/agitate
Model Number: FWT445GES1   Brand: Frigidaire   Age: 5 - 10 years   

My Frigidaire Gallery frontloading washer has stopped washing/agitating. It fills with water then sits quietly, though I can hear the timer cycling. After some time it will drain, refill and sit again. Eventually it will spin and rinse.
I have replaced the timer, and it seems to drain okay, although the purging is pretty loud. The discharge strength seems normal into the drain. It acts the same in regular,permanent press, and delicate settings.

Most likely the problem is a bad motor speed control board (#4 on the cabinet break down diagram).

You have to remove the rear panel to access the part.

- The part number for the speed control board is AP2107536

Thanks Gene! I bought a new speed control board this morning and installed it. Washing machine runs perfectly now. Never thought agitation could be so welcome.

I'm glad you were able to fix it.
