Universal Washer WiFi not working
If your washer WiFi is not working, start with the connection settings before replacing a part. The most likely cause is an incorrect password, so verify the password saved for the washer and enter it again carefully. Next, check that your router is plugged in, has power, and is operating normally. Turn the router off, wait briefly, and turn it back on to reset the connection. A washing machine WiFi problem can also occur when the wrong home network was selected. Confirm that the washer is connected to the correct network, or choose the "Other" option in the app and manually enter your network name and password. If the network is correct but the washer app is not connecting, the router may be too far away. Move it closer or add a WiFi extender. Less commonly, a failed WiFi module, communication board, wire harness, or control board may be responsible. Disconnect power before inspecting electrical components, and follow your model's technical instructions. Enter your washing machine's model number on Repair Clinic to find the exact replacement part for your specific washer.
