I just successfully completed this repair. Disconnecting the wire harnesses was tricky. Each harness has a clip that must be depressed to release and the video does not show this. I took a photo of the board before i disconnected anything. I was glad i did. The reoair took me about 30 minutes to complete. Seeing the video gave me the confidence to tackle it. I'm on my second load of laundry now.
I really need your confidence because I have no one with lockdown and been waiting for months, it's a nightmare of piles and my replacement been sitting on the table enough.
I just completed mine. I noticed that it shows only the three connectors that can be removed by hand. The other 10 are not coming out by hand like the large ones so easily or at alI, if you have a small grip like mine. I did not have pliers to disconnect the connectors from the unit. I also have no grip like yours as a lady. What worked best for me was a 2mm or 2.5 mm mini flat head screwdriver that are used on computers. No struggle or strain at all. The connector has a cavity that hosted each connector connection. Take the 2mm flat head place underneath center area of the connector where it slid into the cavity. Push up or pry up and it pops out perfectly. Thanks for doing this video.😀 It gave me the lead to figure out how to do my own as well. I am now happily washing. 😃 Here's a link to what the mini flat head looks like if anyone sees this video. It's cheap. I already had one. Or buy a full set that has more than just a flat head.

Our LG WM8000 quit mid cycle, only 4 years old, no power and would not reset with the unplug/hold button. Watched your video, read website and took a chance on this part because of return policy. It worked, after paying $1400 for washer, very glad to have it running again. Great video and service, thank you!
Thank you!! Watched tutorial, ordered part, installed by myself-- no problems. It did take me a little longer than 15 minutes but this was the first time I have ever done anything like this. This video gave me the confidence to do it and saved me so much money.
I have to give kudo to RepairClinic as their return policy is amazing. 365 days no question asked, and all I will have to pay is the shipping back for around 10 bucks in case the issue wasn't the circuit board. It ended up to be the circuit board, but it took me a while initially as I didn't want to invest 200 bucks and it turned out to be something else. Once I read the return policy, it was no brainer anymore. Even better, the price is cheaper compared to other sites. Recommend RepairClinic for sure.
This is an amazing recording which provided me the necessary information to quickly remove the main control board from our washer. The drum light was staying on and I read in another blog to "tap" the yellow relay several times. Low and behold it worked. I followed these directions to gain access to the panel, tapped and reassembled. It appears that the relay is now functioning as expected. Even if the relay dies again, I now know how to pull the board to replace it. Much appreciated.
THANK YOU! I bought my LG washers 7 years ago and they have been doing the whole not turn on thing for almost 2 years intermittently. Purchased circuit board on Amazon and pretty much did the work myself before my husband got home thanks to your video. First try it turned on! Very detailed instructions, easy to follow!
My LG washer would finish a load, play the little song, and then stop. Nothing. We'd have to go to circuit breaker and toggle the washer off, then on, to get the washer to work again. After a while that was too much hassle. Watched this video, ordered the part online. Followed video and the washer is behaving normally within 30 minutes. The internet is amazing!
Great video! My LG washer is 10 years old and this is the first time it has needed a repair. The only problem I had was getting some of the connectors off the board and the bottom blue clip back on the wire harness to the back of the machine. Couldn't have done it without this video, Thanks!
Awesome instructions, I followed the video and replaced the main board without any issue. Only hurdle was removing the connectors, I used a plier and gently pressed them and then pulled and it worked. Thanks!! for the great video.
Thank you for this tutorial! Our 3 year old WM3987hw went completely dead mid-cycle late Tuesday. The line filter checked out ok. Ordered this PCB from your website after viewing this video. The part arrived 45 minutes ago. I immediately went to work and am now back in business!
This video was great. I saved several hundred dollars doing this myself. Although my LG model was slightly different, I still understood the steps for changing out the board.
Awesome video. Love feeling empowered when able to do fixes myself. My washer wasn't exactly like this one. But was able to figure mine out from this video.
You're welcome! We are always happy to help. If you would like to give us a review on Google, we would much appreciate it: g.page/r/CcVUrahZNozMEBM/review We hope that you have a great day!
Great video. I replaced the main PCP board myself Tips for others I did Mark all 17 connections with numbers on wires and on PCP board, will be little easier even though most of them are color coded
You're welcome! We are always happy to help. If you would like to give us a review on Google, we would much appreciate it: g.page/r/CcVUrahZNozMEBM/review We hope that you have a great day!
Thank you sooooooo much. Tried to reset it but when the machine didn't power up w direct drive (spinning the drum) I knew I was hit! found the part and your instructions were perfect my machine was slightly different but nothing common sense couldn't figure out.
i have an LG front-loading washer (WM3360HVCA) that is less than 5 years old but was requiring unplugging and power button resets too often. I watched this video to gauge DIY then bought the control board at a local parts depot. Video nailed most details well.Thanks!! The boards have manufacturing dates on them and my old board was from 2003!! and the replacement from 2011! Yikes, the lag on this part is literally years, why?? Anyway, wife is happy washer is hassle-free again. Also echoing comments about difficulty removing some of the plugs. I have small needle-nose pliers which sucked to grasp the base of the plugs. To LG: why 14 plugs??? I wish the control board plugged into the chassis like a PC video card, that would totally rock.
+Richard Cardona The board question should be directed at LG as we don't have any control over something like that. If you would like to support the creation of these videos we would appreciate you ordering from us.
+RepairClinic.com Thanks for the tip on sourcing the part, however time is usually of the essence when an appliance breaks. Any ideas on recycling the old part? LG won't return my calls.
Thank you for the comment. We agree with you! We are currently in the process of updating our video descriptions to include symptoms that would lead to a specific part replacement. This is a long process and will take some time, but it is definitely important to us. For now, if you do need further help, please refer to the help section on our website.
In Ideal situations getting to the back of the washer helps, but for me I did not have that option with out a lot of headaches. If you are carefully you can cut the one zip tie on the case by the bottom and pull the cover off with out having to get to the back. The wires have small clips that if you push them in they will unlock the plugs. There was one that I had to use a small flat head screwdriver to get to, but all the wires came out and I did not have to remove the back.
Great instructional video. Unfortunately I just had to replace my PCB. Only my circuit board housing didn't come out quite as easily as shown in the video. There wasn't as much slack on my wiring harness.
Good so far - but a very hard time disconnecting wires. Cannot find the release and only 3 out of my 10 so far. Afraid to pull too hard without feeling a release like I am suppose to. HELP Please
Easy. Took pictures so I had a reference on how it was supposed to look as I put it back together. Hardest steps. 1. ) Pulling a couple of the electronic wire plug-ins were a challenge even with pliers. 2-) Aligning rhe 4 clips.that hold the controller tight against the back panel. Aligning 4 at a time and putting pressure on the controller box to allow for all 4 clios to set and slide into place SIMULTANEOUSLY took two of us 30 min. It would gave been much easier if it had been designed to fit and slide 2 of the clips at a time, sliding thevcontrol box 1/4 inch and then aligning the last 2 clips and sliding the control box GG ugly to the right completing all 4 being properly in place. ....Perhaps removing the back washing machine access panel before trying to align and securec the clips might have lessend the frustration. But we got it in done nonetheless the less and the machine now works again...yea!
My washer dryer combo is filling with water while dryer. I already replaced the pressure switch and water inlet valves. Could this help solve my problem?
Does that board control temperature as well? My LG washer does not heat the watsr to the correct temperature. The Heating element with thermistor was changed and didnt solve an issue. No error codes.
Hi thanks for video, I Replace the main board but the cycles do not work in their true positions the normal load position funtion in the express wash position i need to reset ?
Too bad the video does not show how to disconnect most of the wires from the board, It is not easy. I used a medium size flat nose pliers for all but the largest two connectors, Those two came off with finger grip. For most of the smaller ones, you have to place the pliers so they squeeze on the side of the connector with the tongue and then gently pull the connector off. If it is hard to pull then you are not doing it right. Hopefully RepairClinic will consider adding this to their video. I almost gave up and sent the new board back. But I finally figured it out.
Good day boss I have LG, almost the same on your model the issue is, in the last spinning last spin around 5min, it is stay to 2-5 hours spinning they can not settle the spinning it will take hour before end, what was the problem of this situation.
I have a Kenmore Elite washing machine, the model is: 796.41472210, and I’ve been having a problem recently where it shuts off in the middle of its cycle, and when I turn it on again it displays PF - Power Failure. I’ve checked the input voltage from the outlet, and the voltage on the input to the PWB itself, and everything is fine before, during, and after the shut-off. Is this enough reason to change the main PWB?
Why are the main controls going dead for? we bought our lg washer new in 2011 from best buy. It died in 2014 and was repaired by best buy. It has now died again. won't power on at all. any idea to say this happens and how to prevent it?
unplug it, hold power for 5 secs. let go, than hold start button 5 secs. plug back in. you'll have power again. trouble is you may have to do this every load from now on
l bought the control board for lg washer model WM2277HS as advice from repair clinic after I received it and attempt to replace it I realized that the connectors are not the same and the part number 6871ER1003C item # 1268306 were provided by repair clinic
the error code is f5e2..i alredy replaced it also the shifter assy..but the error remain the same"? about the drive motor i test directly to power supply and it works. i wonder why the error still about to lid lock
Kindly tell me what to do Once I power on the my LG F12B8NDP25 washing machine it will come on and count down from 17 secs to zero and go off any attempt to press any button it will be beeping. It may work perfectly for 3 days and give the above mentioned fault for one month. Is it programing fault or to replace the CPU. Thanks..
Do all LG main control boards numbers start with EBR or have they changed it? Cause I have made an effort to look for a control board for my LG Tromm washer model #: WM2277HW and I cant seem to find it.
Questions do the new board nuber on the old board has to match the old board number.I ask because the board I need I can't find but ebay has a board looks like it but the board number doesn't match the old one...
How is the machine now? Was it at least able to turn on before going to PF? Ours suffered from the PF code, and when we tried to let it run a wash again, the machine no longer turns on at all. Not even after resetting it. I don't know if a Main Control Board replacement will help, but we will try it. PF means Power Failure, so there could be something wrong with the fuse inside the machine, whether it blew out or is defective.
Pliers are used to pinch the cable tie pins from the back of the machine, then they will pull free. The video was not clear. It looked like maybe the pliers were being used to break off the pins. The narrator says "remove" which is misleading. Second, to unplug the wire harness connectors, you need to press down on the tab on most of the plugs. If not, the the plug is locked in place, and it will be damaged.
So I had a blown fuse in my LG washer PCB and as it is encased in silicone I soldered an inline fuse holder across the terminal and put a fuse in. Upon powering up I found I also have a fault (probably with the resistor) that brings power to the fuse. As my washer is 2010 there are no longer available replacement PCBs so my question is wouldn't all similar PCBs for LG washers work as they all seem to have the same component setup and terminations? Were the board not completely encased in silicone I would be able to replace the resistor. (For reference my PCB is EBR32268014)
Hi, I have an LG WM2501HWA washer and when my wife went to use it, all lights came on like a Christmas tree and some sounds came on as well. The washer was not responding so we decided to unplug it from the wall, unfortunately, now it doesn't turn all at all. I have tested the fuses on top and they all check 0.994 or a little above that, meaning that they are good. I also check the cable and there is power. Can it be that the Main Control Board went out? If so, how can I test it before I buy a new one?, Please help!
+Jhon Castro Testing a main control board is normally beyond the abilities of a do it yourselfer. It requires reading the machine wiring diagram and performing live voltage tests or following the self test procedure on the tech sheet.
PLEASE CHECK THE FUSE ON THE BOARD BEFORE YOUR WASTE MONEY.. Yes its full of silicon or what ever they put but try to remove it and jump the fuse to see if the washer turns on.. I was about to pay $280.
Hi Martin. Can you please explain how to "jump the fuse"? I ordered the expensive board, and it's on the way (but I can return it if I don't need it). Thanks for your help
follow this video up to 1:54 you don't need to unplug everything and look for the fuse... or give me a link of the part that you ordered. I want to make sure that we're working with the same box.
Any Advice??? We just had a repairman come look at our LG Tromm wm2277hs. Machine stopped midwash because of uneven doad, we redistributed the clothes and then it made strange sounds, slowed and quit working. then no buttons would light up and it would not work. He said our control board needed to be replaced, he ordered part, which he then said does not work for this machine. He says that the replacement part number is not accurate on the Lg website or wherever he ordered it from and has run into this problem before. He did not really leave us with an answer other than buying new machine?? Can you tell me the actual replacement part for this machine? and if you thik this is actual problem? I would love to fix it myself- thanks
The main control board should be 6871ER1003C. If that part number is not the right part for your model, we recommend that you remove the old control and try and get a part number directly off of it. It’s hard to say with certainty if the control is the problem, but it is a likely cause from the description.
Thank you so much for responding! Here is where we run into a problem- the part number on old one is 6871ER1075J, the part number you gave me is the one he ordered and received and should work (you would think) Although i did not see this new part in person, service tech says it is like comparing apples and oranges and will not work I guess i will try and contact LG direct and ask, unless you have another suggestion, thanks so much for getting back to me. j
hi there" any one can give me an idea why i almost changed the control board,shifter assy,lid switch, i checked the motor and capacitor..and i do calibration but the washer still not working..
+RepairClinic.com hi I want to find out if you sell washing machine control board? and if it can be ship to Cameroon? am writing from Cameroon and many times I look for where to buy washing machine control board
l bought the control board for lg washer model WM2277HS as advice from repair clinic after I received it and attempt to replace it I realized that the connectors are not the same and the part number 6871ER1003C item # 1268306 were provided by repair clinic.
I replaced the new control board from Repair Clinic and the washer's still won't turn on. Do you have any idea why? I've plugged everything back in, all of the wire harnesses. My control board #EBR64144920.
Make sure you got the right part # for the right Model # of your machine. I almost bought the wrong one but had the guy at repairclinic.com confirm the one I needed.
Your power cord is attached to a noise filter inside the unit. If this goes out, you do not get power. Pull the red connector, and check for power. If no power, that's the problem. You can get the part online for under 50 dollars. Here is a youtube vid on it: ua-cam.com/video/CmDEX0F13e4/v-deo.html
Part number ebr64144908 has been replaced by EBR64144920. Manufacturers do this from time to time when parts are updated. The board will still work in your machine. We will update the title of this video to reflect the change.
***** The card number that comes up when I on your site says it's #1268507 and that it's discontinued and there is no replacement. I called RepairClinic and they confirmed this so I'm ready to return the card and buy a new washer. Are you sure the cards interchange?
It would be more profitable to Repair Clinic and Potential Customers with these devices, if RC would state why one has to change these parts. Why would I have to change this board? Error messages, dead machine, what?
Because you overloaded machine in dry cycle like me I also can't get mech to replace motherboard as it is in mobile home also have to destroy machine by cutting machine in half to dispose of it as doorways are only 500m wide and machine is 650m
Part has failed on original board and a remanufactured. On my 3rd but this time I'm going through the entire service manual to check if there is something else failing that's causing this little IC to overheat and pop.
***** Two questions for you, firstly, Is it possible that the LG washing machines have planned obsolesence regarding the number of wash cycles it is to perform before an issue will arise with the CPU? Secondly, do have much experience with understand the actual motherboard itself?

Great video. I replaced the main PCP board myself
Tips for others
I did Mark all 17 connections with numbers on wires and on PCP board, will be little easier even though most of them are color coded
Thanks Sarah. We've actually updated our website and now have a troubleshooting section that people have found to be very helpful!
This video is amazing! I was able to complete this is less than an hour without my husbands help! 💪🏻

We're glad it worked out for you. Congrats on the repair.
GREAT, I found the cavity Karen Smith, 3 comments down talk of. THANK YOU. Donna KElly
Excellent, this video just helped me fix our washer. Much appreciated 👍👏
would have helped if you showed how to remove all the wire harnesses.
Simple, easy to follow, and it works!
If my washing machine does not power on at all would this be the culprit?
Suscint and to the point. This is a great DIY tutorial. Thank you!

Me too
Great video, saved us several hundred bucks! Thank you!
After unscrewing the bottom two screws on the rear of the top, the lid will not slide back to allow for removal. Any suggestions?
Thanks so much for this video! My washer was even easier than this! (LG WM2250 CW) Saved me hundreds I'm sure!
Hi I have same washer as ur. I can hear when I turn it on but it won't let me select cycle. What was wrong with urs ??
9 yrs old and no parts. Go figure LG. Thank you for the information :)
Hi thanks for video, I Replace the main board but the cycles do not work in their true positions the normal load position funtion in the express wash position i need to reset ?
Does the part #EBR64144920 work for all LG frontload washers or is it specific to certain models? I have a model WM3470HWA LG washer.
Too bad the video does not show how to disconnect most of the wires from the board, It is not easy. I used a medium size flat nose pliers for all but the largest two connectors, Those two came off with finger grip. For most of the smaller ones, you have to place the pliers so they squeeze on the side of the connector with the tongue and then gently pull the connector off. If it is hard to pull then you are not doing it right. Hopefully RepairClinic will consider adding this to their video. I almost gave up and sent the new board back. But I finally figured it out.
Arthur Begun Thank you for your input.
Good day boss I have LG, almost the same on your model the issue is, in the last spinning last spin around 5min, it is stay to 2-5 hours spinning they can not settle the spinning it will take hour before end, what was the problem of this situation.
I have a Kenmore Elite washing machine, the model is: 796.41472210, and I’ve been having a problem recently where it shuts off in the middle of its cycle, and when I turn it on again it displays PF - Power Failure. I’ve checked the input voltage from the outlet, and the voltage on the input to the PWB itself, and everything is fine before, during, and after the shut-off. Is this enough reason to change the main PWB?
I bought this control unit and it turns out the one I have does not have the large Blue connector? What control unit do I need?
Why are the main controls going dead for? we bought our lg washer new in 2011 from best buy. It died in 2014 and was repaired by best buy. It has now died again. won't power on at all. any idea to say this happens and how to prevent it?
unplug it, hold power for 5 secs. let go, than hold start button 5 secs. plug back in. you'll have power again. trouble is you may have to do this every load from now on
l bought the control board for lg washer model WM2277HS as advice from repair clinic after I received it and attempt to replace it I realized that the connectors are not the same and the part number 6871ER1003C item # 1268306 were provided by repair clinic
Cannot frlin the cllips position or place so I can release.
The current part on my washer is EAX44288305. I can't find it anywhere...is there a part # that supercedes this??
the error code is f5e2..i alredy replaced it also the shifter assy..but the error remain the same"? about the drive motor i test directly to power supply and it works. i wonder why the error still about to lid lock
Kindly tell me what to do
Once I power on the my LG F12B8NDP25 washing machine it will come on and count down from 17 secs to zero and go off any attempt to press any button it will be beeping. It may work perfectly for 3 days and give the above mentioned fault for one month.
Is it programing fault or to replace the CPU. Thanks..
Excellent tutorial, thanks for doing this! :)
Do you have a video on its display board
Do all LG main control boards numbers start with EBR or have they changed it? Cause I have made an effort to look for a control board for my LG Tromm washer model #: WM2277HW and I cant seem to find it.
Questions do the new board nuber on the old board has to match the old board number.I ask because the board I need I can't find but ebay has a board looks like it but the board number doesn't match the old one...
@@repairclinic thanks for the reply
thanks for the video, really helped and saved $150 ;)
Could wires get crossed on replacing this to make it wash longer and take fabric softener in the wash cycle?
Jordan McKenzie Most of the wiring connectors have a matched plug on the board so you cannot hook it up wrong.
Worked perfect
my He2t front load washer did not power on the LEDs would flash when I plug in cord power on relay contacts need cleaning from arcing went bad
I'm pretty sure this is what needs to be replaced on my washer. The wash cycle only washes in cold water.
We just replaced the board. We got about 1/2 way though the wash and got the same PF code. Any other suggestions?
How is the machine now? Was it at least able to turn on before going to PF? Ours suffered from the PF code, and when we tried to let it run a wash again, the machine no longer turns on at all. Not even after resetting it. I don't know if a Main Control Board replacement will help, but we will try it. PF means Power Failure, so there could be something wrong with the fuse inside the machine, whether it blew out or is defective.
How much for the main board
Pliers are used to pinch the cable tie pins from the back of the machine, then they will pull free. The video was not clear. It looked like maybe the pliers were being used to break off the pins. The narrator says "remove" which is misleading. Second, to unplug the wire harness connectors, you need to press down on the tab on most of the plugs. If not, the the plug is locked in place, and it will be damaged.
The start button won't start from the control board
Im change the door look but the lingth is de can tell mi what is the promlem
So I had a blown fuse in my LG washer PCB and as it is encased in silicone I soldered an inline fuse holder across the terminal and put a fuse in. Upon powering up I found I also have a fault (probably with the resistor) that brings power to the fuse. As my washer is 2010 there are no longer available replacement PCBs so my question is wouldn't all similar PCBs for LG washers work as they all seem to have the same component setup and terminations? Were the board not completely encased in silicone I would be able to replace the resistor.
(For reference my PCB is EBR32268014)
very good job Thanks
i follow the procedure in tech sheet..but the problem remain the same ..almost all spareparts are new..
perform a master reset. unplug washer for one minute. plug back in, and within 12 seconds, open and close the lid 6 times.
Thank you!
Hi, I have an LG WM2501HWA washer and when my wife went to use it, all lights came on like a Christmas tree and some sounds came on as well. The washer was not responding so we decided to unplug it from the wall, unfortunately, now it doesn't turn all at all. I have tested the fuses on top and they all check 0.994 or a little above that, meaning that they are good. I also check the cable and there is power. Can it be that the Main Control Board went out? If so, how can I test it before I buy a new one?, Please help!
+Jhon Castro Testing a main control board is normally beyond the abilities of a do it yourselfer. It requires reading the machine wiring diagram and performing live voltage tests or following the self test procedure on the tech sheet.
Got it, thanks.
New chip set is different,
Pls what can I do, my press button won't start the washer
I have the same problem
WM2801HRA - these instructions apply. Old board can be repaired at Corecentric Solutions. Great video - brief, to the point, with just enough detail.
PLEASE CHECK THE FUSE ON THE BOARD BEFORE YOUR WASTE MONEY.. Yes its full of silicon or what ever they put but try to remove it and jump the fuse to see if the washer turns on.. I was about to pay $280.
Hi Martin. Can you please explain how to "jump the fuse"? I ordered the expensive board, and it's on the way (but I can return it if I don't need it). Thanks for your help
have you located the fuse inside the control box??
Thanks for your response Martin. I have not begun to disassemble anything yet...so no I haven't yet.
follow this video up to 1:54 you don't need to unplug everything and look for the fuse... or give me a link of the part that you ordered. I want to make sure that we're working with the same box.
Chris Schreiner I'm sorry I meant to say follow the video up to 1:54 and share the link of the party order that way I can see if it's the same box
Any Advice??? We just had a repairman come look at our LG Tromm wm2277hs. Machine stopped midwash because of uneven doad, we redistributed the clothes and then it made strange sounds, slowed and quit working. then no buttons would light up and it would not work. He said our control board needed to be replaced, he ordered part, which he then said does not work for this machine. He says that the replacement part number is not accurate on the Lg website or wherever he ordered it from and has run into this problem before. He did not really leave us with an answer other than buying new machine?? Can you tell me the actual replacement part for this machine? and if you thik this is actual problem? I would love to fix it myself- thanks
The main control board should be 6871ER1003C. If that part number is not the right part for your model, we recommend that you remove the old control and try and get a part number directly off of it. It’s hard to say with certainty if the control is the problem, but it is a likely cause from the description.
Thank you so much for responding! Here is where we run into a problem- the part number on old one is 6871ER1075J, the part number you gave me is the one he ordered and received and should work (you would think)
Although i did not see this new part in person, service tech says it is like comparing apples and oranges and will not work I guess i will try and contact LG direct and ask, unless you have another suggestion, thanks so much for getting back to me. j
I am looking for Lg washer main board EBR64144920
hi there" any one can give me an idea why i almost changed the control board,shifter assy,lid switch, i checked the motor and capacitor..and i do calibration but the washer still not working..
+Ariel Riego De Dios Perhaps the motor is bad or there is a bad wire in the harness.
i would like the lg washer front load main board replacement EBR64144920
how much is the price of the LG fully automatic washing machine control board?

+Oscar Gasalatan We do not have record for that model number. (wd-80130f) If the machine is outside the U.S we are unable to look up parts for it.
+RepairClinic.com
hi I want to find out if you sell washing machine control board?
and if it can be ship to Cameroon?
am writing from Cameroon and many times I look for where to buy washing machine control board
l bought the control board for lg washer model WM2277HS as advice from repair clinic after I received it and attempt to replace it I realized that the connectors are not the same and the part number 6871ER1003C item # 1268306 were provided by repair clinic.
success! thanx!
I replaced the new control board from Repair Clinic and the washer's still won't turn on. Do you have any idea why? I've plugged everything back in, all of the wire harnesses. My control board #EBR64144920.
Make sure you got the right part # for the right Model # of your machine. I almost bought the wrong one but had the guy at repairclinic.com confirm the one I needed.
Your power cord is attached to a noise filter inside the unit. If this goes out, you do not get power. Pull the red connector, and check for power. If no power, that's the problem. You can get the part online for under 50 dollars. Here is a youtube vid on it: ua-cam.com/video/CmDEX0F13e4/v-deo.html
Yikes, a $220 board for a Washer that i paid $250 for preowned......... 😡
I purchased a replacement card and the plugs appear to be different. The card I received is #EBR64144920
Part number ebr64144908 has been replaced by EBR64144920. Manufacturers do this from time to time when parts are updated. The board will still work in your machine. We will update the title of this video to reflect the change.
***** The new card has 16 plugs while the old card has 14. How do I know which plugs to leave off?
***** The card number that comes up when I on your site says it's #1268507 and that it's discontinued and there is no replacement. I called RepairClinic and they confirmed this so I'm ready to return the card and buy a new washer. Are you sure the cards interchange?
What is your washer's model number?
***** WM2688HNM
Why are people so greedy? You're lucky they sell these parts at all without forcing you to hire a repair guy to get the parts.
I live in mobile home repair mech won't change or inform me how to change motherboard because it installed in mobile home grrrrr
It would be more profitable to Repair Clinic and Potential Customers with these devices, if RC would state why one has to change these parts. Why would I have to change this board? Error messages, dead machine, what?
Because you overloaded machine in dry cycle like me I also can't get mech to replace motherboard as it is in mobile home also have to destroy machine by cutting machine in half to dispose of it as doorways are only 500m wide and machine is 650m
Good night, I'd like to know how to test the component. TOP246YN - Power-Integrations
Part has failed on original board and a remanufactured. On my 3rd but this time I'm going through the entire service manual to check if there is something else failing that's causing this little IC to overheat and pop.
***** Two questions for you, firstly, Is it possible that the LG washing machines have planned obsolesence regarding the number of wash cycles it is to perform before an issue will arise with the CPU? Secondly, do have much experience with understand the actual motherboard itself?
Michael Baker We are unsure about your first question. As for your second, what are you wondering about it?
