Kenmore Washer Repair – North Canton, OH (110.49972600)

A Kenmore washer in North Canton was displaying an F25 code and wouldn’t complete its cycle. Our diagnosis revealed a failed motor control board causing the tachometer reading issues.

The Problem

The customer reported an F25 code appearing on the machine and the washer won’t complete the cycle. This error code typically indicates communication problems between the motor and control system.

Diagnosis

Testing revealed the motor tach had 115.6k Ohms, which pointed to a bad motor control board. The excessive resistance reading confirmed the control board was no longer properly communicating with the motor assembly.

The Repair

• Parts replaced: WP8183196 — control board electronic
• Work performed: Installed new motor control board
• Result: Machine successfully passed the auto test and ran high speed spin properly

Is It Worth Repairing?

This Kenmore 110 series washer represents solid value when properly maintained. Control board failures are common but repairable issues on these units. Given the relatively straightforward repair and the machine’s proven design, this was definitely worth fixing rather than replacing.

Maintenance Tips for Kenmore Washers

• Run a cleaning cycle monthly with washer cleaner to prevent buildup that can strain electronic components
• Check and clean the drain pump filter every 3-4 months to prevent drainage issues that can stress the control board
• Avoid overloading the machine, which can cause excessive vibration and premature electronic component failure
