What do you need to know? do you need a board or just have a ?

Try to get the repair manual for your machine, it's worth the cost. Meanwhile, with the power unplugged, undo any wire connectors that just plug in and check for corrosion. Check the capacitor, a dent will ruin it.

to test if there is a fault on your interlock you can close the door now with your hand bang it on the front of the washer were the door hits the catch most cases if it faulty than the washer will start it will then need replacing only thing you can do if faulty m8

Nothing is mentioned in the manual about a filter and I can't find one so I assume there isn't one...

Possible that the SPIN Speed is too low, check the drive, the RPM of the motor. Check for friction of the spindle , check for free movement of the drum. If you notice a change then you will need to reset the mechanism. If the motor speed is low check the capacitor.

Thermistor is resistance which changes in value when it is hot. So this acts as a thermocouple.In this case it is possible that the power control has failed from the board, it can be due to damaged connectors or links. Use a meter to test the continuity.

DOES THIS MACHINE HAVE WEIGHT MESSURING DEVICE OR A BALANCING DEVICE, IF SO IT IS IN THE CIRCUIT BOARD WHERE THE PROBLEM IS ,PULL THE BOARD AN HAVE IT CHECK OR SIMPLE REPLACE IT.

Check out the carbon brushes in the motor. Theyre graphite blocks which transfer mains power to the copper segments of the motor - located at the other end of the motor from the drive pulley. Theyre probably worn down. They're quite cheap parts and easy to replace - the holders are plastic or bakelite and are generally held in with screws or plastic clips. Also, look at the copper segments they run on to check for burning or pitting. If the segments are burnt or damaged you need a replacement motor or a replacement armature (motor part) if you can source one. Occasionally may be a fault in the motor drive circuit board - in which case replacement of board only real option. Other possible causes of spin problems: Faulty pressure switch - machine "thinks" the drum is still full of water so wont enter the spin cycle. Spin problems may also be caused if the machine reckons the load is out of balance, rearrange the load. If problem persists could possibly be a fault in the out of balance detector switch or the suspension and damping system.

at the back of the machine at the top near lid there should be screws undo the screws and then slide back the the lid and it should come off. hope this helps.
