Document Connections: Before disconnecting any wires, take clear photos of all wire connections to the old computer board. Pay close attention to the color and position of each wire and connector. This will be crucial for correct reassembly.
Disconnect Wires: Carefully disconnect all wire harnesses and connectors from the old computer board. Some connectors may have locking tabs that need to be pressed or lifted.
Remove Old Board: Unscrew any mounting screws or release clips holding the old computer board in place. Carefully remove the old board.
Install New Board: Position the new computer board in the same location as the old one. Secure it with the mounting screws or clips previously removed.
Reconnect Wires: Using your photos as a guide, carefully reconnect all wire harnesses and connectors to the new computer board. Ensure each connection is firm and correctly seated.
Reassemble Washing Machine: Reattach any panels or assemblies that were removed to access the board.

7. Troubleshooting
If your washing machine is not functioning correctly after replacing the computer board, consider the following common issues and solutions:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Washing machine does not power on. | No power supply; loose connections. | Check if the washing machine is plugged in and the circuit breaker is on. Verify all wire connections to the new board are secure. |
| Specific functions (e.g., spin, fill) are not working. | Incorrect wiring; faulty component elsewhere. | Double-check all wiring against your photos and the service manual. If wiring is correct, the issue might be with another component (e.g., water valve, motor). |
| Error codes displayed. | System fault; sensor issue. | Refer to your washing machine's user or service manual for the meaning of specific error codes and recommended troubleshooting steps. |
| Washing machine behaves erratically. | Loose connection; incompatible board. | Ensure all connections are tight. Verify that the installed board model is compatible with your washing machine model and voltage requirements. |
