Possible Causes
Open or shorted motor windings, Loose motor harness connection, Failed motor capacitor (if equipped), Control board motor driver failure
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety First: Unplug the washer before accessing the motor. Capacitors can hold a charge; discharge safely if testing.
- Step 1 – Inspect motor harness: From underneath, check the motor connector for looseness, corrosion, or damaged wires. Reseat the connector.
- Step 2 – Check for burning smell or discoloration: A burnt odor or darkened motor housing suggests internal failure.
- Step 3 – Capacitor check (if present): Inspect the start/run capacitor for bulging or leakage. Replace if suspect.
If wiring and capacitor are good but F7E6 persists, the motor or main control board will require electrical testing and likely replacement.
