:( I have tried all suggested actions and those in the supplied manuel,

NO LUCK when I checked with a long time sears appliance person he said the board was bad, buying and having the old one fixed and the cost of a new one was almost the same , SO , we purchased a new washer.
\ Thanks for your help, but like we know dead is dead,
