washer will not power on unless you unplug from wall power outlet and let set about 5 min then plug back in to power and will start then

Try the following—when the washer will not “wake-up”…

  1. Press the START button at each corner (north/south/east/west). If the washer CONTROL PANEL “wakes-up” reliably at any position—check the START button. Does it look crooked/out-of-position compared to the POWER button? If so—replace the CONTROL PANEL COVER.
  2. If the START button looks normal—replace the DISPLAY BOARD.
  3. Tap/bang on the washer at the top/left/rear corner (without damaging the sheetmetal or paint finish). If the CONTROL PANEL “wakes-up”—replace the MAIN BOARD (sticking Power Relay). Please let us know your results.
