A Kenmore washer in North Canton wasn’t completing its cycle properly. The washer does not drain or spin. Our diagnosis revealed a failed main control unit requiring replacement.

The Problem

The customer reported that the washer does not drain or spin. The machine would fill with water but wouldn’t progress through the drain and spin cycles, leaving clothes soaking wet at the end of the wash.

Diagnosis

Testing revealed that the mcu has failed. The main control unit is the electronic brain that coordinates all washer functions, including the drain pump and spin motor operations.

• Estimated cost: Approximate cost of part is $300. Total repair approximately $425 plus sales tax
• Status: Customer advised of repair cost for consideration

Is It Worth Repairing?

For this Kenmore 110-series washer, a $425 control board replacement represents a significant investment. These units are typically 8-12 years old, so the decision depends on overall condition and how many more years of service you need. Kenmore washers generally provide reliable performance when properly maintained.

Maintenance Tips for Kenmore Washers

• Clean the door seal and detergent dispenser monthly to prevent buildup that can affect electronic components
• Use HE detergent only and measure properly — excess suds can cause control board issues
• Run a cleaning cycle monthly and leave the door open after use to prevent moisture-related electronic failures
