Problem for Frigidaire FWS833A Top Load Washer

Frigidaire FWS833AS1 - My washing machine recently




By brian_hewitt on Oct 16, 2009

" "
Frigidaire FWS833AS1 - My washing machine recently stopped and wouldn't start spinning during the wash cycle.It will drain, just not spin. Also, it will do the wash and rinse cycles if set manually but then won't spin, If I wait a while I can redo the rinse and spin cycle. There was a smell of burning the first time and some smoke, but no fire.

Hi

Thanks for using FixYa. The smell might be due to burning of lid switch. If the washer isn't spinning then it might be dueto a Lid switch or due to a bad motor coupler. You can check for the lid switch& replace it--
First unplug the washing machine. Then remove the two screws that hold the top consolein place; these are located in back of the main console (where the dials are).Once removed, the entire console swivels back, exposing the wiresunderneath.

After this unplug the wiring harness that is connected to the washing machinetop flat surface. Now remove the two s-shaped brackets with a screwdriver byprying underneath. This will allow you to remove the main sheet metal framearound the washing machine. The lid switch assembly is located under the topconsole. Now, remove it and replace with the new assembly and put it backtogether.

 Please look this schematicfor lid switch location(part # 50)--


You can buy the lid switch from this link--

Thanks
