Replaced main control unit after getting F71 error code on Kenmore Elite Ht3. Plugged in, still got F 71 code. Now power completely out and door locked! Help!
Unplug or turn the circuit breaker off for a 5 minutes to allow it to reset. Plug the machine back into the wall outlet or turn the breaker back on. Press the Pause/Cancel/Stop button twice to clear the PF in the display. Try to start a short cycle to check the operation of the machine by selecting a cycle and pressing and holding the start button until the machine starts.
