How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the washer.

  • Check motor connector: Remove the rear panel and ensure the motor plug is fully inserted and locked.
  • Inspect harness: Trace the cable from motor to control board for cuts, burns, or loose connections.
  • Separate motor module: On some Gram models, a separate motor control module is mounted near the motor. Check its connectors and housing for damage.

If no wiring issues are found, the motor control electronics likely need professional diagnosis and replacement.
