In today's world, it's good to see that what's wrong is not thrown away, but repaired and works. Congratulations!
I think this is a beautiful idea! That is sustainability, repairing your own home appliances!
There is but one question here if you replace the producer's board withe universal one is it still up to code and is it certified so in case something happens your insurance will still cover it a burned down house is more valuable then a saved what 50 € difference between the original board and a universal one
@@wasserman63 there's no guarantee the original part will not burn your house too. Also OE manufacturer will not give you guarantee for old machine. So once you are trying to repair old stuff - everything is on your own risk.
P.S. I liked the idea of "universal control board".
i agree it want and "I" like the idea of a universal board but its not me who decide that but on the and of the day its you insurance its like you changed a crucial par on your car and it fails then you are s o l
@@thedude8046 88
Today I learned that there is a thing called Universal Circuit Board for washing machines. This is pretty cool, thanks for the video.
Cool, thanks
yes a top idea
Russian guy also has arduino based controller but not free
they also exist for CRT televisions, probably many more. I like this kinda future
I've used this uni-board in a dishwasher..it works well
Wire that is green with yellow stripe (or yellow with green stripe) should only be used for equipment ground.
In Europe yellow/green wire is used for earth. It should never have live tension on it. Not even neutral. That would be blue wire here. There is still red, black, grey, purple, white, even pink could be used. So no real reason to use yellow/green for anything but earth. Over here even yellow and green monocolour wire isn't used anymore
@@Jo-re2ye - equipment ground is equivalent to earth
@@Jo-re2ye single colour yellow or Green Earth wire is compliant here if the insulation type can't be made in the usual green/yellow form.
Glass insulated wires are an example.
I don't know why you'd care. Nobody does around here. Just make the right connections, who cares about colors? You people are being absurd.
@@techalyzer - these standard wiring practices are intended to keep people safe, both the service technicians and the users / consumers.
You made a good video, thank you. But there are a few notes: 1. The yellow-green wire cannot be used anywhere other than Protective Earth (PÉ). 2. Do not connect wires of different colors in the terminal block. 3. Separate the low-current tachometer wires from the power wires in the block on the motor. (This is a sneaky decision by the manufacturers; the mainboard will burn if foam gets on the pad). 4. Blow out the pressure sensor tube, since you've gone so deep.
I didn't get the 3. 🤔
@@NicksStuff This is a fairly common breakdown. When the foam from the tank (it is enough to pour in the hand washing powder once, it will give a lot of foam) comes out of the tank and flows down the outer wall of the tank onto the motor. The foam gets on the open connector and shorts the high voltage of the rotor to the contact of the tachometer sensor. Then the speed sensor circuit on the board will burn out.
Ah nice tip (#3)
great tip (#3) thanks!

Greetings from Greece! I didn't knew there's such thing as universal circuit board for washing machines. You rule!
Hello friend, congratulations on the initiative this will help many people who cannot buy a new washing machine, and foster the workforce in repairs and decrease the disposal of machines in the environment. This kind of action is philosophy.
Very good video. I like how you explained it all. CZcamsrs often do things with no explanation and viewers need to guess what was done. With you it's all clear.
Зачем выбрасывать старые провода и делать полную разборку? Достаточно использовать то что уже есть!. Приклейка дисплея термоклеем выглядит ужасно
согласен, можно было сделать на 3Д принтере переходник с защёлками
Good work! An alternative is to purchase a used original control bd instead to save cost, time and effort, since it is an old machine. Unfortunately, the probably for other parts to fail increases...
"fun" story. ended up here because of a laundry machine with an unobotainable busted board. my 1st thought was "well then, ill make one myself". followed by "yeah... every single time i say that, someone, somewhere, has already thought of it.. so lets check it out"... and here i am hahahaa. my idea was to use arduino, which has been done as well hahaha. this board makes it all way easier tho. thank you kind sir for making this video. it was very instructive. and its clear that you are a proud worker. can tell just by how tidy your work is. congratulations.
Clever idea, we got a new washing mc only because the display had failed and it could not be read to see what mode the machine was in, the display was no longer avail and other second hand displays had the same failure rendering the machine useless. Sadly the safety culture and throw away world would inhibit this. Still a great idea for developing countries where labour is cheap.
a good idea any where, if it saves somebody haveing to cough for a whole new machine
I keep seeing people mentioning about home insurance not paying out if the insurance co. work out the fire (or whatever) was caused by you having done work on an appliance like this. Is this an American thing or does it affect other countries because I’ve never come across that in the UK. If anyone knows differently *please tell me*!Thanks
Wow, I'm genuinely impressed. Great job! Well done
Fenomenalno,ovo je predstava bolja od majstora.To je pravi majstor.Veliki naklon.
You don't know how much money you have saved people with this type washing machine, I had to throw away my machine because they wanted too much money for the original board . Thank you so much for your video!!!!!!
the board of the washing /dishwashing machine is one of the cheapest part of the mmachine but the price artificially raised to stop you from fixing it.
You can tell when someone knows their stuff, and this man knows. Excellent video, thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
You are great 👍 thank You for letting us know that it is possible to repair the washing machine when a controller is broken
Great job!
A second life for broken objects is what the modern world lacks!
Yep, True
An interesting video. The channel says based in the US but I don't think many people in the US or the UK would want to be messing about with a universal controller especially on an older machine - just buy a second hand board and fit that. The cost of the labour alone would not make it financially viable. It would be cheaper to buy a new machine. There may also be some features on the washing machine which are not provided for in a universal board.
Thanks for sharing!
These days I wouldn't be so sure. Modern machines are not the best thanks to all the eco rules and compulsory energy saving measures put into OEM software. So, if you can bypass that, you can build a more effective machine.
I agree with MrE. Aside from the satisfaction of DIY, you're not a fool to consumerism. We're already gonna die buried in useless crap.
@@fmphotooffice5513 In some countries it often doesn't stack up to repair. I agree we shouldn't be throwing stuff away which could be made to work again but manufacturers make it difficult to do otherwise and governments, at best, turn a blind eye or produce more and more legislation to make repair difficult/not cost effective..
Its because of affordability (business sell items with Insurance), and they scrap their old appliances and buy another (new or used). Sadly, majority of people in western countries do not practice Green Environmental Protection Laws, i.e. 5Rs
1 Reduce 2 Reuse 3 Recycle 4 Recover 5 Rethink or Repurpose. We must follow 5Rs. 1. Reduce: Minimize the generation of waste by using resources more efficiently and consuming less. 2. Reuse: Extend the life of products and materials by finding ways to use them again instead of discarding them after a single use. 3. Recycle: Collect, process, and transform materials into new products to prevent them from ending up in landfills. 4. Recover: Extract energy or materials from waste through processes like waste-to-energy, contributing to resource recovery. 5. Repurpose or Rethink: Encourage a shift in thinking and behaviour towards more sustainable choices, considering the environmental impact of decisions and promoting a broader awareness of the consequences of consumption and waste generation. The video looks like from Asia (India or Pakistan), where people cannot afford new things and repair and use old appliances.
Big respect for this amazing work! Greetings from Germany.
You have made a very nice modification, it looks like the calcareous water has covered the heater resistor.
Thank you so much for this video! I have a watching machine in my basement. It was working well for a few years, but then the controller board was damaged. From the connections that were burned I concluded it was a door switch which caught a water and caused a short in a circuit. I left it in the basement for years now in hope I will be able to replace the controller with something new, maybe a Raspberry Pi, or something similar. It's worth to note that I found a new controller for this specific washing machine, but it was to expensive. I could buy a second hand washing machine of the same model for the controller price, so I said nay. What you demonstrated in your video is awesome! I never knew there is something like universal controller we can use. Thank you so much! I learned a new things today from your video.
Dude you can't control a washing machine with a raspberry pi.
@@simonero96 I think you might be able to, but it’s not the best solution and certainly wouldn’t be easy. You’d need loads of external components to handle the high voltage switching and sensing.
Sounds like a fun project for a day when I’m not busy 😂
@@andyscott5978 yeah sure. Almost everything is possible if you want. I was saying what you said better: raspberry pi isn't intended for such high voltages and currents and would need loads of external components to actually drive the machine.
It's not as straightforward as using an "ad hoc" board.
@@simonero96 absolutely. It looks like some people have tried and not got very far with it for reasons you and I may have already mentioned. But when I get mine up and running I promise to send pictures of it 😂👍.
@@andyscott5978
Nice. I wonder how are you going to drive such a big AC motor through a raspberry but I'm not expert enough and I'm sure there are plenty of solutions.
Also, wouldn't be better to use an Arduino instead of a Raspberry?
The robotic voice is horrendous (there are AI that do very good text to speech) but I absolutely loved seeing this.
I am electrical and electronic engineer. This Video is awesome...very nice job...thank you for share...
Naaa... big compliance fail using Green/Yellow EARTH/Ground wire for motor wiring.
You should know that.
That machine looks spookily similar to an AEG washer-dryer that I threw out when it stopped working. I had fun taking it apart to make it easier to dispose of. I wonder if it was made in the same factory as that one. The control board was available for about £150, but I thought with my luck something else would break soon after. With the state of the UK economy today, I probably wouldn't be so cavalier in discarding it if it happened now.
That machine would have left his brother in a carnival lol, But jokes apart universal control boards are cheaper
Good luck and success to everyone
Al-Jarjawi, automatic washing machine surgeon
that's so cool! I have the (exact?) same machine but branded Siemens Siwamat XLM 146f Family. I had to replace the control board some years ago but was still able to get it from Siemens. Apparently the same board is used in some Whirlpool machines. I recently had to replace the diaphragm/seal in the inlet valve and the shock absorbers. hard to find good quality ones unfortunately. Original ones looked way better construction than the cheap plastic ones I found.
I'm glad to have learned there is this universal control board! Thank you for sharing this!
Thanks! As my appliances are using more and more time I have been thinking about doing something like this. Great!
Hot glue is the best part. Something else on the washer will soon fail. ;)
Can you please give us a source as to where we can buy this unit? I did not see anything in your comments about the video. Thank you….
You did an excellent job at dressing the wires and explaining the circuits!
С таким же успехом можно взять любой модуль от любой стиральной машины и перекомутировать , но главное спермоклея налить побольше 😂😂😂.
Amazing demonstration thank very much
Is such a significant repair even economically profitable? I live in Europe and a repair of this magnitude (including labor and shipping) would cost more than half the price of a new washing machine. It is then a question whether this is worth doing with, for example, a 5-6 year old washing machine.
Otherwise, of course, I praise and wonder that you are taking such care of it. Of course, it's not easy, you had to study the washing machine first, which certainly took a few hours of time. And time is money.
No.
Respect from Turkmenistan. Я ваш поклонник фанат
thanks
Where did you buy this universal board? Can we get link?
This controller works only for belt-driven washers? How about bldc motors, is is there available universal controller?
Great video and I had no idea you could get a universal controller for washing machines. The one thing I would ask is that you never use the green/yellow wire for anything other than Earth / Ground. If you need another colour of wire, consider using some rings of tape on a colour already used e.g. brown with a black ring.
There's not much to a washing machine. At its heart is basically a timer. The circuits are run to specific timings, on a cycle. You can see the theory in operation on those old dishwashers that use mechanical mode dials that rotate electrically as the program runs. They are quite simple in theory.
why is everybody hung up on this?
@@UGPepe if you use the Earth wire as a live conductor and someone other than you works on it, they may well reconnect that “live Earth” to Earth because that’s the universal rule. At best this make a bit of a bang when you turn it all back on at worst it makes every metal item which is connected to Earth in your house (or wherever you’re doing it) live. I’m sure you can work out what the result might be.
I’ve worked on systems where someone used the Earth as a live and it all went bang when I turned it back on and I’m a qualified electrician. Or were you meaning just the whole alternative controller?
Unbelievable, i don't know in my memory not one repair case related with changing control panel like in this video. I worked in washing machine factory about 10 years :DDD Repair cases with control panel was very difficult because to find problematic module necessary to connect each serviceable module separately. Always in such cases it turned out that the problem module was the control panel itself :DDD
Could you turn off the bad automatic translation title and description? They are so badly translated that it makes it seem like your mounting the washing machine to somewhere (like wall for example).
All My Lifer I Have Been repairing Everything I Own And Not Own Because Im Broke No Joke, I Know, If Something Expensive Brakles, I need To Fix It, Is It Tvs Or Whatever , I Fix It Or Try My Best To Do It And You Would Not believe How Muich Smarter I Have Goten By Doing It :)
Thank you Sir, Learn a lot.
Using yellow/green as anything other than ground is both dangerous, and illegal.
Same for blue, which is always (no exception) neutral.
Find cables in other colors instead.
May you can Share a Link where to buy this system?
I wish I knew earlier that such Chinese kits exist. I had to discard an old premium ASKO machine only because the manufacturer doesn't sell replacement main boards.
I would use the old wires!
Thank you!
Good job! 👍
You are a real master!
Good luck! )))
Very good (from Italy)
Your use of green / Yellow for anything other than earth would be illegal in Australia or NZ But otherwise that is educational.
In most parts of Europe as well. But I wonder if this is a worldwide rule?
Nice job.. impressive work.. your tutorial so clear bro... Thanks.
Glad it helped
Esperando essa novidade chegar aqui no Brasil. Peças de reposição originais às vezes são impossíveis de encontrar.
Very nice.. But here we are servicing the board well.. please upload (If possible) an inverter type washing machine board
Did not know this was a thing, very cool!
I did not know there was a universal control board. But i want to slap you for using the colour wires you have used. Also in the UK we only use a cold water supply . And therefore it is important to use the heater element. However i see an issue with not connecting the heater with a hot water supply , as if the hot water input temperature is not high enough the program won't move on. Also would be better to remove the old program knob and fit the new controller over that to cover the old programs. I do like the principle of repair over throw away for my self as an experienced appliance engineer. just for the hell of it. But would find it hard to justify the cost to some one else on time charged on the retro modification .
as far as I understood him, he just didn't connect the heater element in his lab setup. The heater needs water, otherwise it will get destroyed. He will connect it in the washing machine of course.
Ah yes that makes sense, thank you
@@tommeier2299
I did connected the heater inside the washer, just while testing the board i did not, because the heater could have burned without water
It's hard to see if you have grounded all metal elements to protective earth (PE), not only because you use the green/yellow wire colour against the purpose but also because you don't mention equipment equipotential grounding. Without restoring all ground points, the machine can become a death trap if an electrical fault occurs.
Если её не вскрывать под напряжением ничего не произойдёт. Корпус заземлён и этого достаточно.
They didn't connect any ground anywhere. The only place it was connected was in the plug... 🤦♂
تشکر وسپاس شما یک برلیانس باشکوه هستین بسیار ممنون وعالی❤❤❤❤🌸🌸🌻🌻👏👏👏
Im thinking about converting a washing machine to 12v for use in my boat
Nice work with the cables but using hotglue to stick the controller to the machine was HORRIBLE! Use silicone or acrylic whereyou can have a nice connection.
Спасибо . Все доступно и понятно . Один вопрос - марка , модель блока .
Where can you buy them is it just the one brand or other brands all work for any washing machine can you adjust the spin cycle is that a pot? If not what is the spin cycle in RPM looks interesting save them going to landfill

I want to ask, why does my washing machine after installing the universal PCB in my house trip on the main MCB when washing? and when spinning is normal
Obrigado por por legenda. Ficou fácil entender. Esse placa universal. Tem programação. Como delicado, cama, lavagem rápida ?
Excellent job, nicely done. Very neat and professional.
Thank you very much!
This is awesome. Should have been a thing.maby years ago vs being sticking using overpriced oem parts
This should be made for sale on european market and a replacement for original knobs.
extremaly rare case of failed electronics, in 99,99% cases are worn bearings, electric motor or heater
That's cool a universal controller board exists for those qualified enough to retrofit a machine with it. The annoying part of the video was the computer generated narration rather than the person narrating it themselves..
Nice job, how much was the job cost compared to a New washing mashine?
Where I live It costed around 100 dollars
Is the universal board 110v only or it could be used with 220v?
Please let me know from where can buy this universal pcb and possible to connect this to beko washing machine
такую же хотел сделать. не потому что сильно надо, а чтобы было. но пока время на это развлечение нету. а идея замечательная.

You NEVER schould use yellow - green wire as a power one! This colours are ONLY for protection!
So if i understand corectly, door and water flow sensors work with AC voltage? That seems.. strange...

well that's a good idea, but it will require alot of work.
Hello, where is this electronic card sold?
I will watch
Brown or black is the hot connection.
Blue is neutral. Yellow-green is only permitted for protective earth.
