My Frigidaire front load washer quits immediately after starting any cycle. It won't run any cycle attempted. The local washer repairman says it the control panel that needs to be replaced and will cost $300+. Is this accurate? I found several sites that indicate prices for the control panel part #2330931 for $165 or $176, but another site indicated part #4358809 for $128. I want to be able to fix this, but want to be able to knowledgeably discuss this with the repairman. Which part do think is the correct one? Do you think this is something that I might be able to do myself? If so, are there other parts that would be required in the replacement on the control panel? Thank you for your assistance.

Well I do not get anything under those part numbers. Here is the part that ties to your control board on this site. Since there is some confusion check with whomever you order from to confirm. Part number: AP4358809
As far as doing it yourself, it is a pretty easy job, no special tools, just remove and replace. This service manual will show you how to get into the machine to do that. Do it yourself and you can cut the cost to about half of the service call. http://frigidaireservicetips.co...rizontalAxisWasherSM.pdfYour risk is that the diagnosis is not correct, so I would invoke the testing procedures outlined in the manual before spending the money. However, the control is a likely source of the problem, so if you do not confirm anything I would still go ahead and replace it.

Did replacing the control panel do the trick?
