Don't ever replace a mother board unless you are sure it is bad. They are expensive & may not be the problem. Always check everything else first . Sounds like you may have a bad connection. Check all connectors make sure the are getting a good connection.Hope this helps you

    I Check them all connections seemed good still cutting on and off. Started a load on normal, worked for a few min, but then cut off, so cancelled and set at rinse spin, kept cutting off, then drain spin and works just fine.could it be the motor control board.

SOURCE: FRIGIDAIRE FRONT LOAD WASHER

I too had the same problem, I closed the soap tray and a magnet popped out and got stuck to the door. Same problem with it acting like it was going to start and then beeped. This is where the magnet goes, just stick it back in, its held in with pressure (barely) :)

I took the whole control panel off to locate the magnetic reed switch, then just reverse engineered where the magnet is supposed to go on the soap drawer.

Yes, the original issue was the control from the beginning. the control is damaged and it cannot register the latch at this point. this is necessary and , it will fix the issue.

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.

SOURCE: my frigidaire washer FTF2140ES0 won't spin on the spin cycle

Hi there, the same thing is happening with our washer. Did you find a solution to the problem? We found a coin the the black tube, but it still doesn't do the final spin. I can hear the motor trying to do something, but it just won't do the final spin. If anyone has any idea or suggestions it would be greatly appreciated. In the meantime, I have a load of slopping wet laundry to deal with. :(

I just put dirty clothes in my GLTF1670ASO. But the door won't latch so I can wash them. Yesterday the washer worked perfectly. Can you help me?

Do you have any error codes showing up? To find a manual for this unit, google FRIGIDAIRE AFFINITY WASHER REPAIR MANUAL
most of these units have the same parts inside them.

Also, check out this video. Please click me as helpful.

I have a Frigidaire front load washer #ATF6000SF1 and need to reset the PAU and E41 error code. I cannot get the unit into diagnostic mode to accomplish this. How can I reset this code?

I appreciate your post, Josh Orenstein!
From my understanding your Frigidaire washer is displaying "PAU" and "E41". "PAU" normally displays when there is an interruption to the cycle and "E41" means the main control board thinks the door switch is open. Either code can display due to a faulty door latch assembly, door strike, or main control board. You can attempt to perform a factory reset by holding down the Start/Pause button and Select button until a signal sounds. Also review the door latch and strike to see if there is any visible damage that could cause a short within the components. If there is no visible damage you may want to consult with a technician for proper diagnosis and repair of your washer. Hope this information is helpful to some degree. -Matt

ATF6000ES frigidaire will not spin all the time only sometimes

Mine would only spin on the fast final cycle. Wouldn't spin during any of the agitate cycles. I replaced the motor, the speed controller and the main control unit. Nothing fixed the problem. Btw, the door lock worked properly. Had to replace the washer. Sorry, I know this doesn't help.

LTF2940ES3--Washer drains, but will not do a final spin.

Hi. You have done a great job diagnosing your unit. This unit is designed to not allow a full scaled spin out, if there are issues with the on-board door lock mechanism. This is standard safety equipment for most units. Once this damaged door lock mechanism is replaced, the washer will operate properly. The full scaled spin out will return.

My fridaire front load washer will not spin at high speed

HI. Your unit is equipped with a Motor Speed Control Board. This board regulates the spin speed, with the help of a tachometer, which, is located and mounted on the motor. When this Control board is experiencing issues, the spin will not preform at optimal performance. I recommend to replace this Motor Control Board asap. Once replaced, the unit will spin properly.

My front loader isn't completing the final spin-it drains, but can't seem to get into the fast final spin...help!

It sounds like you may have one or more problems. One of which could be your door lock switch, quite often this part will simply fail over time. If it is faulty it will not lock the door, and for safety reasons will not go into a spin cycle. door switch assembly part number is 131763245. Also the door strike located on the doors edge will sometime break or chip in side the latch and you will have replace both. part number for the strike is 134456600. the other possible problem could be that your motor control board or speed board is faulty and is not sending the proper amperage to your motor telling it to spin. motor control board part number is 134591200. the strike is easy to replace but the others may require a technician.hope this helps

Thanks
