Tech started the dryer and let it run for 10 minutes. No unusual noises develop. Customer indicated that the noise seemed to be load dependant and a heavier load created more noise. Customer also wonders if the machine is unlevel. Tech disassembled the dryer and insoected interior parts. All 6 rollers are smooth and rotate freely. No wear signs are present and no seizing has occurred. The belt and tensioner are proper. The motor is firmly attached to the cradle and the blower fan is clean and clear of debris. Tech can find no mechanical failures associated with the inner workings of the dryer. Tech explained findings to the customer and provided a proactive quote to replace the rollers with the updated ball bearing style. Customer declined and wants to continue use since the potential repair cost is so high. Job is complete.

"Customer states that the the cycle abruptly stopped and would not drain and spin. Customer had to manually empty the water out to get everything out. Tech connected newfi and began running tests. The spin and agitate tests do not operate at all. Door lock, fill, and drain all pass. Tech exited test mode and tried to run a consumer drain and spin cycle. The washer drains out, locks the door, and attempts to run the spin basket. The basket rotates roughly 1 revolution and then stops. 0rpm is detected by the computers. Tech allowed the 13 minute cycle to progress and three attempts were made to rotate and read the feedback circuit. Computers are still seeing 0rpm. Cycle cancels out on its own and tech spun the basket by hand. After spinning the basket at roughly 25rpm for 60 seconds, 0rpm is still detected by the computers. Tech generated a quote for replacement computers and a new drive motor. Customer declined quote due to costs. Job is complete."

"Customer says that he got an error code that indicated that he needed to replace the shift actuator. He replaced the part, but errors are still occurring and the washer won't run. Tech inspected and found an error flashing on the display. Tech canceled the error and entered diagnostics. Two errors are stored for the lid lock and the tachometer speed. Tech is unable to get the washer to operate in any capacity other than powering the console on. Tech removed the console and checked the main pcb. The status LED is flashing (which is proper) and all harnesses are connected fully. Tech removed all harnesses and reinstalled them. Washer now allows the technician to start a drain and spin. The lid locks and the motor hums 3 times consecutively and then shuts off and displays 'done'. Tech checked the drive capacitor and verified that it is open and needs replaced. Issue should be unrelated to the customers complaint as tech has successfully run many machines through diagnostics and on board testing even when they have a bad capacitor. Tech believes that the main control is faulty and is not allowing operations to properly occur, in addition to the failed drive capacitor. Tech provided a quote for the customer whom declined repair. Job is complete."
