Door Lock Assembly Operation
After loading the clothing, the door should be closed and latched. The locking cam on the door contacts
the latching switch actuator which closes the latching switch. The specified number of coins should now
be added to start the washer. The gear motor pulls up on the locking pawl by use of a linkage rod. The
locking pawl has two jobs. The first is to lock the door. This is accomplished by blocking the locking cam
on the door so that it can’t rotate to unlock. The second job is to close the two piggyback lock sensing
switches. These switches control power to all of the controls. If the door unlocks for any reason, these
two switches will stop the machine. When the door handle is 1/4 to 1/2 of an inch from its fully closed
position, the latching switch should close. The two piggyback lock sensing switches should be open when
the door is unlocked and should be closed when the door is locked.
Accessing the Door Lock Assembly
After removing the front panel and masking ring, the door lock assembly can now be accessed.
Adjustment for Door Lock Assembly
The latching switch and the piggyback lock sensing switches all have slotted mounting for easy
adjustment.
Step 1:
Set door cam over pin. Here you can see
the door cam away from the door lock
assembly.
Step 2:
Tighten spring screw on switch actuator
bracket arm until it just clears cam OD. at
base of door lock assembly.
Adjustment to this bracket usually
is not necessary as next step is used
more in field.
Detergent Dispenser
Remove top panel to access dispenser. (see Removing Top Panel)
Detergent is flushed from the front of the compartment and fabric
softener is flushed from the back. There will be a small amount of
water left in the fabric softener compartment after each use.
Vacuum Breaker (also called an air gap)
In the left rear of the cabinet is the vacuum breaker. It guides
the water to the tub and dispenser and prevents a back flow of
water.
Water Valves
Remove top panel to access water valves. (see Removing
Top Panel) The two dual outlet water valves are mounted to
the water valve mounting plate that is fastened to the rear
channel. To remove the valves, loosen the 2 locking nuts
on both sides of the mounting plate from the interior of the
machine and then lift the plate and valves off of the back
channel and pull the assembly into the machine. The valves
can then be removed from the mounting plate by removing
the 5/16 mounting screws.
Always check inlet screens to be sure that they are clean.
Disassembly requires the removal of two solenoid screws and
three valve body screws. Below the solenoid coil is a solenoid
guide, armature, armature spring and diaphragm. All valve
parts are available individually or as a complete unit.
Masking Ring (door lock cover) Removal
