Our washing machines front controls are acting up. When you go to turn it on with the power button it wont, but when you touch a setting button it will turn on. Then if you try and change any of the settings it goes off again. So there is noway to power it up and run a load. Which part would likely need replacing in order to fix this electrical screw up. Ray
Look under the top or inside the lower service panel and there should be some tech notes that will show you how to generate error codes, put it into test mode and test some components.
If it will not go into test mode the main control unit becomes the number one suspect.
