Model 110.46472501. Based on error F/01, add a garment light flashing, I have replaced the CCU. Washer still will not operate. I have run the diagnostics, and now have error: wash, spin, clothes clean (cycle complete) indicating an F26 door switch error. That is the only error code which shows during the service history part of the diagnostic test. When I press the button to start the diagnostic test, the door locks, the door locked light comes on, and the drain & spin light flashes. Nothing else happens. When I press the stop button to end the test, the drain & spin light goes out, the normal/casual light starts blinking, and the door does not unlock. The only way to clear the control panel is to unplug the machine, and manually release the door. I checked the door solenoid at connector DL3 at the CCU, and got 60 ohms between pins 2 and 3, but 120 ohms between 1 and 3. Does this mean my door solenoid is bad and I need a new door latch?
Suggestion: Unplug washer from mains. Open up the machine, disconnect and refit all connectors with wires one by one. Could be some loose connection somewhere. Also helps in the long run

Let's focus first on error codes F22 and F26. Error code F22 is door lock fault and it flashes when the door lock fails to activate after 6 attempts while F26 flashes when the door switch is opened for more than 5 seconds while the door is locked or when the door is not opened after 3 consecutive cycles. Since you cannot do 3 consecutive cycles without opening the door, this may indicate that the door switch contacts are welded together. But both error codes may also indicate a malfunctioning CCU or any other component such as the motor controller unit (MCU).
Disconnect power then start troubleshooting the machine by disconnecting the MCU wire harnesses (MI3 and MS2) from the CCU then reconnect power and start the machine. If error codes F22 and F26 go away, then the MCU must be the culprit, replace it. If the error codes do not go away, disconnect power then test the continuity of the terminals of door switch harness DS2 both with the door open and close. It must have continuity, if the door lock and switch assembly is good, when the door is close and none when the door is open. Also test the continuity between the terminals of connector DS2 on the CCU and it should read open.
Proceed with the troubleshooting of the door lock switch and solenoids if the door switch contact is open when the door is open and close when the door is close. Disconnect power then disconnect the door lock switch harness from connector DLS2 on the CCU. Jump a wire between the terminals of DLS2 on the CCU then close the door firmly. Reconnect power then start the machine.
Post back the result of the tests and your observations about the behavior of the machine as you do the tests. It will help determine which part is causing the problem.

Mine will not start and gives f22 mine also reads 60 ohms and 120 like above.. When I jumped DLS2 the cycle started farther but could not advance (due to being Jumped?)
