    Hi All,

    I’m looking for the mainboard for a Samsung WF8704RSW the Board Model is DC92-00130F.

    The closest I can find is from model WF8702RSS Board DC92-00131C which looks identical but obviously may not work.

    I’m looking for a 2nd hand part that can be shipped to Southern Ireland.

    Thanks.

    you will be lucky to get a used board plus there are 4 variants of your machine and they may have different software

    Thanks for the reply Dave,

    Yeah this machine seems to be ultra rare for some reason ?

    Where could I get a new one ? it’s probably not worth the cost.

    What`s the sympton of your fault i.e. why do you think it is the pcboard? Or are you dead sure it is the board.
    And yes the pcboards have to be the correct one: near enough will not do!!

    Hi and thanks for the reply.

    The machine was dead, no lights no beeps nothing. I did all the usual checks to see if power was at least getting to the board and it was.

    Anyway, luckily, I found a board on ebay exact match so perfectly good washing machine is working again.

    It looks like some components get very hot under that resin stuff they put on the board.

    Anyway, it was a cheap fix to get my Elderly Aunt’s machine running again, much cheaper than a new machine, people love to throw away stuff now that’s fixable it’s unreal.

    Great news well done. “people love to throw away stuff now that’s fixable it’s unreal” I know they do, it is as though they`ve got money to burn, just too scared to touch stuff they are unfamiliar with (which will most likely everything), can`t be bothered and buy a new one. Last time I was down the tip with some scrap steel there was a 7 to 9 year old Miele that had bit the dust, mind you at Miele repair prices that never surprises me!

    I do laugh when people talk about the cost of repairing a washing machine and up to their eyeballs in debt for a car……The PCP generation. The same people will go out and buy a brand new washing machine without even considering repairing the old one.

    I wish we had washing machines that were mechanically controlled with no electronic boards. Back to the mechanical timer, the Motor and pump were AC powered directly with no electronics, no DC brushes to wear out. And no driver electronics, inverters etc. So incredibly simple.

    Now you see marketing nonsense such as “digital motor” or “inverter Motor” and while all that might be great for much greater control over the motor, it’s not necessary.

    It’s amazing how many people get hooked by the marketing and the flashy designs of modern washing machines, at the end of the day all they do is turn clothes in a drum of water that it heats, the detergents do most of the work.

    you cant really get decent spin speeds without electronic control. go back years and Bendix had a control board on an induction motor so boards are nothing new

    all this drive is down to efficiency to get the higher ratings. a 3 phase motor is more powerful, more efficient and cheaper to make so it makes sense to use them. by and large they can be more reliable but we live in damp housing and condensation plays havoc with electronics not to mention the odd slug

    “I do laugh when people talk about the cost of repairing a washing machine and up to their eyeballs in debt for a car……The PCP generation. The same people will go out and buy a brand new washing machine without even considering repairing the old one.” Ahh that`ll be the same folks who`ll argue the toss over 20p can of baked beans verses some other brand of baked beans for hours on end but will freely buy that brand new car on HP with next to zero research that can devalue by 2/3rds within 3 years and not blink an eye lid mainly because they cannot work it out their horrendous loses, or do realize that after the event but change the subject to the weather if ever mentioned..

    “I wish we had washing machines that were mechanically controlled with no electronic boards. Back to the mechanical timer, the Motor and pump were AC powered directly with no electronics, no DC brushes to wear out. And no driver electronics, inverters etc. So incredibly simple.” I see your point but most of those only span up to 600 spin there was of course the Candy with the CVD clutch type motor and sprung drum pulley that opened to get a differing ratio up to 800 spin, and there was an Indesit w/m, the 2449 (confusingly there were 2 2449`s as only Indesit knows how – completely different machines!) which had a pivoting induction motor which when the clutch raised up to change the ratio triggering a switch – there was also a ballast heater under the top weight as well , can`t really remember too much as too long ago for me to remember it all now. Anyway 1000 rpm out of that one with the aluminium clutch – the plastic 800 version was dreadful loads of clutch and V belt problems plastic and belts are not a good idea least for clutches.
    Electomechanical timers: AKO timers were the best as fitted to Zanussis and AEG and other then machines such as Hotpoint 8 series. Vast majority were ETN`s as fitted to the likes of Powerhouse Electras and loads of others- they were ok. Indesit made their own, not quite as good but not that bad. Then there were Crouzets(?) as fitted to Hoovers and there were 2 main types completely different from each other. These you could change the timer cam motors with a bit of luck and the other later type (also fitted to some Indesit late 1980`s machines e.g the 823 825 etc….where you could remove the side plates. Other than the Hoover type officially you could not get any replaceable parts for the timers.
    I see your point and yes you do make some good observations (my rose tinted glasses have just slipped off!) but like Electrofix points out 1200/1400 out of a normal induction motor was not going to happen even with a wretched pcb. The trouble is (nearly) everyone likes 1200/1400+ spins if you had only an 800 spin jobby it`ll cost a fortune in extra time drying your undies throughout winter.
    Overall these inverter motored machines are not bad what can let them down is the wiring looms are too short to allow for the side to side movement on wash and pre-spin as I discovered last night 22/12/25 with my TCL – 2 wires broken in the heater / thermistor loom. There`s always got to be something that could be better, always something cheapened some how some where!
    Merry Xmas.
