The control is unable to properly detect motor speed and the machine will
shut down. If a failure occurs during high-speed spin the door will be
unlocked after 3 minutes.
Potential Causes
• Check wire harness connections between the Drive Motor/Tachometer and
the Motor ControlUnit (MCU), and between the MCU and the Central Control
Unit (CCU)
• Check the Drive Motor
• Check the MCU
• Check the Wire Harness
Replace failed component.
In most cases, the MCU will need ot be replaced.
