Error SR I have a Kenmore elite top load 11021062000. We had a service tech tell us that we need to replaced the control board. After looking into it they have two control boards. one is a machine control board and the other is a motor control board. Do you know if we need to replace both or just one? and which one? I can start a cycle but as soon a the machine starts going in the initial stage it locks up and give me the sr code. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

fll error code is a communication error between (ccu) central control unit board and the (mcu) motor control unit bottom control board .... replace control board on the top of machine

Hello & Welcome to FixYa

Error Code F1 means that the control is either bad or the wiring harness to the control has some issues. Please check the control board for any bad components as you might need complete replacement of the control. Please get back to me if you have any other questions.

Hello, the F51 code is a motor rotor position sensor failure. It's best to call in the warranty service as there is a bunch of tests that need to be run to determine if it's the sensor or control board. If the tech wasn't any help, contact the store for a replacement.

Thanks

check if basket turns freely. if it does replace the main board

The F70 and F71 error codes on this model of washer indicates a communication problem between the user interface control board and the central control unit (main control board). These error codes can sometimes be caused by a power surge or glitch through the electrical lines. Try unplugging the washer to completely disconnect electrical power. Wait 1 minute and then plug the washer back in to the see if the fault code clears. If it does, then the washer may work normally.

If the code reappears, then you could have a wire harness connection problem, a failed user interface control board or a failed central control unit. I recommend calling a service technician to properly diagnose and repair this type of problem so that the correct component can be replaced.


Be sure your unit is plugged into a 3 prong grounded outlet as well.


F71 is a "heatbeat failure" which means that your front interface control board is shorted and will need to be replaced. it's actually fairly easy to replace and can definitely be done by yourself. To access the part, just pull the unit forward and remove the 3 screws coming in from the back of the top panel. Remove the top panel by pulling it back, up, and off. Then remove all the screws going into the top of the control panel. Remove the dispenser drawer and remove the screws coming in through the dispenser. Remove the screws coming from the inside of the dryer going forward into the control panel, then remove the control panel (it's just clipped in on the bottom. After that you can disconnect the wire harnesses to the front interface control board and replace that part.

I believe SL is suds lock. There may be something stuck in the drain pump which can also be causing the noise.

main control board need replacing

communication error between control board and panel. Make sure both are replaced together. common problem

I have a Kenmore HE5 Steam: after a power failure last week, now when you turn the dryer on and push"start" the cycle stops emediately and flashes PF...
