Keinokuorma & AccApp - thanks for your replies. Sorry it's taken so long for me to reply, but it took me a while to find the time to get an ohm meter and to get back to the washer. One thing I forgot to mention in my initial post, was that the washer works perfectly fine with no clothes or with a light load of clothes. The problem primarily occurs when I put a more "normal" size load of clothes in the washer. That being said, I also referred to pages 50-52 in the Frigidaire washer manual (thanks AccApp) and performed some of the troubleshooting tasks. Page 50-51: Measuring the readings from the 6-pin plug and the 10-pin plug. Put washer in tumble, measure reading from 5 pin (of the 6-pin plug) and the 1, 2, 6, 9 & 10 pins (of the 10-pin plug). Readings (VAC): pin 1 = 36.7 (lower than 50 VAC) pin 2 = 119.8 pin 6 = 119.8 pin 9 = 26.3 (lower than 50 VAC) pin 10 = 199.8 Based on the results, this points to a defective Speed Control Board. Does that sound correct? Page 52 - Drive motor tumbles very slowly in any timer position. Measure resistence between pins 3 and 4 of the 10-pin plug. Reading = 182.9 Ohms From troubleshooting: If reading is 184 Ohms +/- 7%, Defective speed control board. Both results point to a defective speed control board, but I'd appreciate your guidance based on the above results. Also, where can I purchase a Speed Control Board for this washer online? Thanks! Mikel
