    • Appliantology Live Dojo, Saturday, 4/27/2024 @10 AM ET
      27 April 2024 02:00 PM Until 03:00 PM
      5  
      All Appliantology tech members are invited to join in this workshop on all things Appliantological. 
      We have a special session planned for this one. Instead of the usual Show 'n Tell on a technical topic, we're going to post tech sheets in the comments to this Calendar Event (scroll down to see what's posted so far) and ask specific questions that can only be answered by reading the tech sheet. If you at least try to answer the questions beforehand, you'll get a lot more out of it. The tech sheet and the questions are posted in the comments section below.
      Your mission, if you should choose to accept it, is to check out the questions for each one and try to answer them ahead of time. Then come to the Dojo to see how well you did! 
      Who: This workshop is only available to tech members at Appliantology.
      When: Saturday, April 27 @10:00 AM Eastern Time.
      Where: Online via Zoom
      How:
      Click here to go to the forum topic with the registration link. If you're interested, register now. Arrive a couple minutes early to make sure your connection is working. Set a reminder for yourself for this workshop so you don’t miss it.  And check out past workshops here: https://appliantology.org/announcement/33-webinar-recordings-index-page/

LG Washer -WM2450HRA - have to unplug before use

After the washer sits for a while, it requires unplugging/replugging to get it to turn on again.

It has done this one or twice over the many years we have had it.  Now it is every time.

Searching around, it appears that the main computer board is the most likely suspect.  I've also read that the noise filter could be the cause, but that appears to only have windings so I'm not sure if that would resolve by a power cycle.  Anyway, the main board is no longer available.  Anywhere.  Well, there is one on eBay that says "tested", but with an intermittent problem I'm not sure it's worth the investement?

Any suggestions?  Or do I start shopping for a new set?

Try spinning the drum to boot it up.

 Usually NOT the mainboard in my experience. It is the front board or the Uuse interface UI

there is a bullitin from lg out on the internets, with test procedure,  but cant find it just now

Main Board 99.9% of the time.

Display Boards rarely fail (12vdc)...powered by Main Board.

Some symptoms...

Spark occurs at receptacle when plugged.

Ozone odor
