Brand:
Model Number:wfw9200sq00
Main Symptom: replaced door lock mechanism buzzed and sounded terrible. From the start. Only worked one cycle, received Second new door, lock mechanism and is buzzing the same way. I shut it off immediately, so it didn’t burn up the coil like The first one
What happens & when: Door won’t lock new lock mechanism fails
Error Code (if any):f22
Parts or tests already tried:2 door locks

With the door lock having been replaced, check the wiring between the lock and the main control board. If the wiring is good and the door strike is ok then you would need to replace the main control board.

Not sure what a new control board would do for me. I get 120 V to the door switch with no variation for the 45 seconds that it normally takes before you get the failure F-22 message that would seem all that a control board could do is give you a continuous power source to the relay to be clear the original relay never buzzed. You just heard the door clunk and when I quit one of the small coils and the relay is open, I got the new one put it in. It worked for one cycle then quit and one of the coils is open in that if I plug the new one in with a test cord directly it buzzes just like the other one did before it went bad. The machine will work with it in, but I have no idea how long it will last it doesn’t seem normal for the little solenoid in there to buzz like that I didn’t wanna ruin it, but I just don’t wanna buy more parts without a good reason thanks for your attention.
