Details
This is a genuine OEM main control board for GE front-load washing machines. It serves as the “brain” of the washer, receiving inputs from sensors, user controls, and then directing motors, valves, and displays. If this board fails or develops defects, you may see symptoms such as no power, unresponsive controls, erratic behavior, stuck cycles, or failure to advance. Replacing it restores proper control logic and cycle management.
