After wash cycle is complete the washer will not go in to high speed spin.
Went through diagnostic procedure & machine did high speed spin then
flashed E-47 code. The next procedure was to remove the door lock assembly (which i did) & measure the resistence of the PTC circuit.
Where exactly do you measure this? I checked the ohms at the wax motor
and have 5.87K & at the plug 500K.

PTC states for "Positive Temperature Coefficient" or in other word it is a wax motor in this case. According to the Tech sheet the test results you posted looks like the problem is a bad door lock assembly.

- The door lock Part number: AP4455026

Thanks GENE for your help! I wasn't sure if the door lock was bad, but I was leaning that way. I ordered the part & when it comes in I'll let you know if it works.
