The Main Wire Harness and Control Board Assembly is designed for certain dishwasher models, including those from LG and select Sears-Kenmore brands. This authentic LG component functions as the primary electronic control hub of the dishwasher, overseeing operations like wash cycles, temperature regulation, and control of water intake and drainage. It interprets signals from various sensors and modulates the power supply to relays and motors in response to those inputs.
Signs that the control board may be defective include:
- Inability of the dishwasher to initiate or complete cycles
- Unresponsive display or malfunctioning control buttons
- Unusual noises due to erratic component operation
- Incorrect assessment of soil levels or thermal conditions
Common causes for these malfunctions can stem from moisture exposure, unsecured connections leading to electrical shorts, or wear and tear from extended exposure to heat.
This original equipment manufacturer (OEM) part is also compatible with specific Kenmore models.
