Hi
Thanks
for using FixYa. F 50
flashes when the motor rotor position sensor (RPS) senses no rotation (Motor Stalled). Does basket turn
freely? If not, make sure bottom shipping pack has been removed. Remove the
basket and look for foreign object. If
basket turns freely, then perform the below mentioned diagnostic test as per its repair manual--
Motor
Circuit TEST
This test
checks the wiring to the motor and rotor position sensor; and the motor and
rotor position sensor themselves. NOTE: Drain water from tub.
1. See
Activation of Manual Diagnostic Test Mode, and check the motor and electrical connections
by performing the Agitate and Spin tests under Manual: Motor. The following step
assumes that this step failed.
2. Unplug
washer or disconnect power.
3. Check
to see if basket will turn freely. If basket turns freely, go to step 4. If
basket does not turn freely, determine what is causing the mechanical friction
or lock up.
4. Remove
the console to access the machine/ motor control assembly.
5.
Visually check that the P5 and P10 connectors are inserted all the way into the
machine/motor control. If visual checks pass, go to step 6. If visual checks
fail, reconnect P5 and P10 and repeat step 1.
6. With
an ohmmeter, check for 16 ohms resistance at the P5 connector between pins P5-1
and P5-2, and also between pins P5-1 and P5-3. Also measure the resistance at
the P10 connector between pins P10-1 and P10-7 and verify that the resistance
is within the range shown in the wiring diagram on page 7-1. If the resistance
is correct, go to step 11. If the P5 connector resistance is much higher than
16 ohms, or the P10 connector resistance is out of range, go to step 7.
7. Tilt
machine forward to access the bottom of the machine and the drive motor area.
Remove the motor bolt, then the motor cover to access the motor connections.
8.
Visually check the mounting bracket and electrical connections to the motor and
rotor position sensor board. If visual check passes, go to step 9. If visual
check fails, reconnect the electrical connections, reassemble stator and motor
cover and repeat step 1.
9. With an ohmmeter, check for continuity between all pins
on the P10 machine/motor control connector and the motor rotor position sensor
(RPS) connector. If there is continuity, go to step 11. If there is no
continuity, replace the lower machine harness.
10. With
an ohmmeter, check for continuity between all pins on the P5 machine/motor
control connector and the drive motor connector. If there is continuity,
replace the drive motor. If there is no continuity, replace the lower machine
harness.
11. The
drive motor and lower harness are good. Replace the motor RPS board and perform
the Diagnostics test in step 1 to verify repair.
12. If
the Diagnostics motor test in step 1 failed, then the machine/motor control has
failed: Unplug the washer or disconnect power. Replace the machine/motor
control assembly. Perform the Motor Diagnostics in step 1 to verify repair.
Please
do rate the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further
assistance.
Thanks
