Thanks. We have the flashing lights problem on our Splendid washer in our RV. Not. Exactly the same as the washer/dryer combo. We’re going to pull out the board and check it. Thanks.
Just completed this repair with the help of this video! Pulled the board out and sure enough there was a swollen capacitor, ordered a replacement from amazon (couldn't find one locally). After a small solder job everything is working perfectly again! Thanks Joel ✌
I’m having the same problem. Fortunately I have an identical machine I us for parts I picked it up from a used repair shop. They didn’t know what they had. I got the working barely used machine for $25.00 And smiled all the way out the front door. My older machine I plan to checkout the capacitors and repair
How the hell did you even get the case with the motherboard out? I got all the clips of but I knew I wasn’t going to get it back together. I’m impressed for those that could actually do this repair
Bro, you love using the word “ uh”. Lol. I rewatched just to count the number of times,,, get ready,,, 48 times you used “ uh” On a more serious note, thank you for the information.
Joel, thanks for the video....I pulled my board out of my 2100xc to take it to the shop. Hopefully they can repair it. I had to disconnect the wiring harnesses before taking it out as I couldn't manipulate the board out of the unit. My question is, were you able to reinstall the board with the harnesses connected or did you have to connect them after working the board back in. There sure isn't much room in there to work. Thanks in advance for your input.
I think I might have cut some tie wraps to make slake on the wires in order to be capable of plugging them in outside. It’s a few years ago now so it’s a bit foggy. Hopefully you get yours working again. Seems as tho many have succeeded after me.
@@joelshopefullyhelpfulvideo3010 Thanks, My board is going to an electronics shop in hopes of getting it done at a reasonable price. The troubleshooting and estimate is free so I have nothing to lose......if not I'll bite the bullet and buy a new one. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks again!
Thanks for posting this. I have the same issue and I’ll be trying your repair. I think I may have 2 bad capacitors. The bulging you are talking about is the top, correct? Kinda like a dome?
hearing about your success motivates me to make more videos. feel free to share the video, I will try to post more helpful videos soon, I’ve got many other ideas about RV’s and the household that surely could help more people.
I am having this same problem right now. Mine will flash all the lights like crazy. It might start doing it in the middle of a cycle and it will run for hours. Driving me crazy. I really don't wnnt to have to pull it out to fix it but I guess I am going to have too. I am going to get a used mother board I think on Ebay.
FreeWheelin' Hi, mine just didn’t want to start, I never had it do it in the middle of a cycle. It’s like if it was doing some sort of self test and never started, just flashed all the lights. You might still have a similar issue on the board

Can you point out for me which capacitor you are referring to. could you put your finger on it? I have already bought this mother board once and it worked for a short while and I am told I have to buy another one as all my lights are flashing. I called the company and asked if there was a recall and there wasn't. I am in a park where we have researched this a little and found that over 60% of the people here either have replaced a board or two and some people have removed the units and have bought a washer from Walmart which is cheaper than the board alone. This is not a dryer,,just the washer. Thanks for the video. I am going to show this around the park.
Don Jackman, Hi, sorry for the late reply but if you look on the video at about 2:12 it’s the biggest one on top RH side. It was originally a bit smaller but I went bigger at the same rating.
It’s 5 years ago now but after watching the video, I remember pulling it out from the back after removing the panel. I think I removed a few clips holding some of the wiring to help pull it out.
Hi, the link provided seems to give a 10v 680UF, my memory seems to remember the original voltage was higher, I used a 50v 680uf 105c capacitor, it was bigger but more voltage is acceptable in this application.

Happy to help someone else willing to put the effort in! Cheers
I used successfully this procedure as a foundation for repairing my Splendide WD2100XC washer/dryer combo in my RV. Thank you.
Did you replace capacitor? Did you have to have any specialty tools? Do you have a part number by chance
@@dalter62710 No specialty tools. Used a soldering iron to remove the old one and a soldering iron to install the new one.

Very good video, you may have save me a lot of money. We have the same problem. I will check that this weekend!!!
Great video! You could have actually pointed out the capacitor to help further. Glad it worked, now I'll need to see if that's what's wrong with mine.
Phil Daoust well noted for my future videos. I just wrote how to find it’s location in the video description.

How do you remove the controller board. I see it but don’t see how it’s held in. Thanks
It’s 4 years ago now but I think I remember it being held by clips only.
I had power go out burned my surge protector out.
Now my splendid combo xc 2100 has no power.
It worked fine before this storm.
Thanks for posting this. I have the same issue and I’ll be trying your repair. I think I may have 2 bad capacitors. The bulging you are talking about is the top, correct? Kinda like a dome?
Yes, at the top, it’s not obvious but looking closely, you can see it
Thanks! I just replaced the 2 bad caps and now the machine is working like a champ!! Kudos to you sir!

How did you get it out?

Does the capacitor have to be soiled in
Part number by chance? Where did you get new capacitor?

Looks like they're not for sale where I got them. I bought six, needed one. I can mail you one of my spares.

Joel, where is the motherboard located?
If you look at around 3:10 in the video it shows it from the back view with the back panel open it sits in the lower corner at the back
Get to point
