Greetings.
A little dramatic but my situation is dire!
Our smart drive 051 is threatening the fabric of my reality by not playing ball. It does this try and work 3 times thing and then beeps at me. After reading your forums I have done the following:
1) shorted the out of balance switch
2) pulled everything apart and inspected/cleaned (no water invasion marks)
3) run the diag mode stuff you posted to someone else with the following results.
lights along top of front panel read 10000010 with the high and low lights on (water level) and the hold and slow lights on.
When I try and reset, ALL the lights come on and it becomes non-resposive. When left for a while the lights on the top chase back and forward (thats kind of cool).
The fabric of reality thing is, if we have to buy a new washer, I will not be able to register my motorcycle…….. I will do almost anything to fix the washing machine!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks in advance Me.
