A week of nothing but broken control boards on new washers | Appliance Repairers

Every single call I ran from Monday to Friday was for a high-efficiency washer under three years old with a dead main board. It felt like a weird curse. The worst was a Wednesday job for a family with a newborn, where the machine just stopped mid-cycle and threw a cryptic error code. Has anyone else seen this kind of spike in one specific failure lately?

Maybe it's just a weird coincidence with your service area...

Holy cow, a whole week of just that? That's insane. I haven't seen a spike that bad, but I did two of those same calls last month. Both were on the same brand, just out of warranty.

Check the power supply first, like @amy974 probably did.
