Re: the weather, it's beautiful around here. Up to 87 today, then back to 70s the rest of the week. I'm gearing up to hold a really big booya party, ever attended a booya? ;) You could be here in time to install that part, I'll keep the band aids handy! lol [/COLOR]

I'm in L.A., a few hours behind you...
So, how's the weather behaving?

[COLOR="Magenta"]Yes, that looks just like the piece I ripped out of there! Well.. it mine doesn't look like that anymore... it's in several pieces now. But it did.
So yes, I ordered it. I'll let you know how it turns out. Hopefully it will go back in without cutting anymore gashes into my oh-so-delicate skin.
And yes.. I probably should use a surge protector. I wish I had thought of that on my own. You know, BEFORE. Like when I was running around unplugging all of my computers because of the storm. *sigh* :o
Thank you. :D [/COLOR]
[COLOR="magenta"] PS- I didn't really expect a reply this late- do you live here? :cool: [/COLOR]

Hi Tracy, :) Great post! The board you're talking about is probably the motor control board (or speed control board, but your description ain't so bad either ;)), at the bottom of the washer. Check out the photos and order the board through the link below. - Motor control boardQuote:Is there anything else I should know about that part? Like, if it fries, does anything else fry with it? Or if I replace it, will the whole washer just magically work?
If the board is fried, then most likely that's all you need. Also, I'd recommend using a surge protector.

[COLOR="Magenta"]Washer Frigidaire Model: GLTF2940ESO
I am attempting to fix my washing machine which I believe was zapped by lightening. I am not good at fixing things, but am willing to tear it apart and see if I can. Please talk to me as though I am stupid, because I don't think there is one part on this thing that I can name. Except maybe the cord.
I found a board that has a nasty blackened area that I can see was some sort of electrical failure. I tried to fix the board, but it won't work, so I want that part. None of the parts finders online want to tell me what that part is, or it's number.
It isn't the main control board/panel. This was found below the drum of the washer, in a white plastic box that cuts up your hands when you try to remove it from the washer. I have since cleaned up most of the blood. Grr.
Is there anything else I should know about that part? Like, if it fries, does anything else fry with it? Or if I replace it, will the whole washer just magically work?
Thank you for any help you can give. :cool:
