Hope you can help me . I have been reading alot on your site for testing front loading washers
This is what i have done so far, I put the washer in test mode and checked for error readings but none came up but a old one for the pump that i replaced . ok i did the inverter test . as soon as i put the washer in test mode i had 120 vac to the blue and red wires ? had power all the time i was using the test mode is this good or bad . then i checked the motor for 6 ohms blue to white blue to red white to red , all had reading of 6ohms . next i checked the sensor resistance value and it was 116.5 ohms not 118 ohms , is that the problem , not sure now . note this washer is a canadian model . i dont know if that would change anything or not, hope you can help me in the right direction. glen:confused:anyone have a ideas what i should do next

If the 120 VAC is present at the inverter AC input harness and motor resistance is correct, replace the inverter.
I'm not able to find the correct part number for the inverter because we do not have access for non American models parts list.
