Frigidaire Affinity Washer Speed Control Board

repair to the product. Many times the error will refer to a specific washer part that is causing the problem, while other times, the error can indicate a failure from more than one component requiring a bit of troubleshooting to figure out which one is causing the problem. Tech sheets found in most appliances are the best source for this information, while simple online searches of sites like mine can also get you the information you need. With an error indicating a communication problem, which is what the E5E error means, this usually ends up being a control board of some type, but which one is seldom easy to determine.

If the problem is not corrected, replace the speed control board". Not terribly informative, but I include this example to demonstrate how this increased complexity is making it more difficult to accurately troubleshoot these failures on new appliances. So following the testing process, I verified each wiring connector between the two boards, and did a resistance check of each wire to ensure I didn't ha
