Troubleshooting and fixing a Kenmore Elite Washing machine that will not turn on. In this video I show how to test and replace the main control board. The washer being repaired is a Kenmore Elite Washer Model Number: 110.28062800. This video is part of my series "Free on Facebook" in which I repair, recycle, repurpose thinks I find for free.

I could use your help. I am not a tech just a DIYer. I have a Kenmore 90 Series washer. After completing one load of wash I started a second. The tub filled with water, agitated then stopped. No matter what setting I put it in nothing happens. No humming, nothing. Another Kenmore 90 series washer was given to me. It agitated but no spin. After checking it out it was only a loose wire. Plugged it in & it went through the cycles. Put a load of cloths in & the only cycle that will now work is the spin. Any help on either one of these would be appreciated. I did notice same series but different timer control model. I did check the lid switch, both are good. I even jumped them to make sure. On the first one I changed the timer & the only function is the water will fill.

AH! This is close to my model, but I lack the Spin Speed button which I hear you can hold down for 5 second 3x to test the cycles without the lid lock. Mine turns on just fine, but I keep getting the LF error code for Low Flow, or Long Flow. Took the hoses off, cleaned out some sand from the screen (we are on a well, and this was bought in late 2006). It keeps stopping mid-cycle, especially during the Rinse cycle. I have to hit Start to bypass the LF code but I might do that 10x before it actually works and proceeds forward in the cycle. You can hear it try to fill but it takes many tries before it moves on to Spin and Drain. Only the Cold water screen had sand; the hot seemed just fine. Trying to run the washer only on hot water wash/rinse didn't bypass the problem. About to call a repair man, but I hesitate to pump a few. hundred dollars into machines this old yet I agree with all your comments about sustainability. Would hate to see these go to a landfill, and it matches my dryer which works perfectly. Would hate to buy a whole new set. Any ideas? Thanks!

That's interesting looks like you did a pretty thorough job troubleshooting. If you confirmed the water coming in js flowing fine then I think it is either bad valves or a bad main board that is not recognizing the drum being filled.

I have a kenmore 100 series. For months it will stop and keep lid locked during the cycle. It can stay like that for hours. What I do is unplug the bone. It takes hours before the machine unlocks the lid

Sounds like an issue with board but the lid lock could be faulty as well (easier and cheaper to start there)

My Kenmore washer wasn't powering on and I saw one possible solution was unplug it for about 5 minutes and then replug it in and I left it unplugged about 10 minutes plugged it back in and it worked fine. I also turned off and turn back on the circuit breaker but it wasn't off in first place so i think the real fix was just unplugging and replulgging. I read this resets it .

I would first try resetting the washer by unplugging it and plugging it back in. If that does not work there is an issue with the main board (the one I replaced in this video) or the interface board. Also check all connections on main board.

I would inspect the control board for any burn marks or swollen capacitors which would mean the board js bad. Also check to see if an LED light is being lit up from the control board (if it is not then your board is definitely bad).

Im trying to justify fixing my Kenmore washer from about 2012. Its a smaller one in the $550 range. Im pretty handy and mechanical i do my own auto work but i feel like mine has everything wrong with it😂😂 evwntually it would wouldnt agitate (impeller) it was like that for quite awhile. Then it stopped spin drying. Then shortly after that (yes, I used it twice after it wouldnt spin dry and quickly handwashed inside washer 😂) it drained and stopped doing anything at all. The door has a latch and a lock. If i play with that i can get it to turn on but thats it. Nothing else. Just says "sensing". When it was somewhat working there where times id smell an electrical smell though very faint. Checled the board and nothing visible thats obvious. It would be a shame to toss out if it was something easy like this but I feel its more than that for some reason

I think the clicking is the actuator motor. It directs a cam shifting from "free-wheeling" wash plate(Spin cycle) to "engaged"; which is Agitate. ( months ago?) You've prolly fixed it by now.

Perhaps a relay is stuck on the main board causing the pump to come jn. See if you can find one online for cheap. After replacing the board make sure your pump js not running too hot (touch it after a load) it could be drawing too much current thus messing up the board (best practice is to replace board and pump)
