Why won't my Frigidaire Affinity Front Loader complete the wash cycle?

I have a Frigidaire Affinty Front Load washing machine. Model Number ATF6000ES0. Recently it hasn't been working correctly. It wouldn't drain, which I have fixed in the past by taking it apart and cleaning out the drain. I did that this past weekend and it was majorly clogged. Cleaned it out, put it back together, tried to do a load of wash. It ran for about 10 minutes and then just shut itself off. I've been doing some research and have concluded it could be either the Door Lock Assembly or the Control Board. I know we have issues with the door latch because we have to hold the door shut when pressing start for it to lock. But it has ran fine for many months by doing this. This morning I ran an empty spin cycle just to drain all the water out. It started and ran completely through just fine. So now I am thinking it is the control board. I just want to somehow make sure this is the problem before I spend $150-$200 on a control board.

By the time you have finished mucking about it will likely cost you much more than it would to have a Techo come out to give you a quote for a few dollars to see if it is all worth it as regards your budget!

SOURCE: Frigidaire Front Load Washer won't Spin

i fixed mine about 5 times and its always some thing diffrent.
try buyng the inexpencive parts first and leave for last the electronic control panel.
it could be that your washing a smaller amount than the recomended.
Take it to a profesional. dont do like me a DIY guy. Some times i need to take pictures when taking the monster appart and then because they are somany screws missing duct tape, rope or hangerwire becomes usefull.
All mechanics are wise guys you and me are thevictims.

FRIGIDAIRE AFFINTY FRONT LOAD DOOR WILL NO CLOSE LAFW7000LWO

Good Morning Friend,

I understand the door will not close on your Frigidaire Affinity washer, model# ATF7000LW0. I suggest resetting your appliance, by either unplugging it or shutting the power off at your home's circuit breaker, for 3-5 minutes. Restore power and start any cycle. I ask that you please follow up with a comment on the post, at your convenience, to advise if further troubleshooting is needed or if your appliances status has changed successfully. Hope this is helpful.

What does error code E23 on a frigidaire affinty front load washing machine mean

Good Morning Friend,

I understand you are receiving an E23 code on your Frigidaire Affinity washer, model# GLTF2940ES. The E23 code states that the drain pump relay on the control board has failed. This could also be a possible false code. I suggest resetting your appliance, by either unplugging it or shutting the power off at the circuit breaker, for 3-5 minutes. Restore power and start any cycle. I ask that you please follow up with a comment on the post, at your convenience, to advise if further troubleshooting is needed or if your appliances status has changed successfully. Hope this is helpful.

Everything works but it does not spin

There is an auxiliary switch in the door lock and switch assembly that is activated at the end of the wash cycle for the machine to advance to the spin cycle. This is a safety feature to prevent the door from opening during the spin cycle and the machine will not spin unless the switch is activated. The machine works except advancing to the spin cycle and this signifies that the auxiliary switch cannot be activated and the door lock and switch assembly is faulty. Replaced the door lock and switch assembly (part #131763202) to address the issue. Click on the link below for the complete and detailed procedure.

My frigidaire fron loader will not spin during wash cycle but will spin when placed on spin

If the drain pump is working correctly and you can get it to spin manually, then the board is faulty. Had the exact same problem with an Lg front loader 40 min. ago.(have to replace the board.)

My washing machine will not spin, it will wash and then make a buzzing sound during the spin cycle

Unless your front loader is set firmly on concrete and leveled to perfection, the force of a heavy wash load spinning in excess of 1000rpm will create a bit of vibration and noise.A firm footing is your best defense against to much movement.
