Use this guide to replace the main board in your LG front load washing machine.
This is the main circuit board for the washer. It doesn't contain any buttons or dials—if your washer buttons or dials are broken, you'll need to replace the control panel instead.
This guide will work for most LG front load washing machines. This guide is written with a model WM3050CW washer. If you have a different model, you may encounter some minor disassembly differences, but the overall repair process will be the same.
