TEST #2 Valves
This test checks the electrical connecons to the valves, and
the valves themselves.
1. Check the relays and electrical connecons to the valves
by performing the Cold, Hot, Oxi (not on all models), and
Fabric Soener Service Test Load Control on page 5-5.
Each test acvates and deacvates the selected valve. The
following steps assume one (or more) valve(s) did not turn
on.
2. For the valve(s) in queson check the individual solenoid
valves:
a. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
b. Remove console to access main control.
c. Remove connector J2 from main control. Refer to main
control diagram on page 6-6.
d. Check harness connecon to solenoid valves.
3. Check resistance of the valve coils across the following J2
connector pinouts:
Valve Pinout
Fabric Soener J2, 4 & 7
OXI (not on all models) J2, 4 & 8
Hot J2, 4 & 9
Cold J2, 4 & 10
Resistance should be 790–840 Ω.
¾ If resistance readings are tens of ohms outside of
range, replace the valve assembly.
¾ If resistance readings are within range, replace main
control and perform Service Diagnoscs to verify
repair.
