Fix Your Broken Washer Control Board for CHEAP! How to Use an ESR Meter for Board Repair

Is it possible to repair a washer control board? YES! You may be surprised at the cost of repairing an appliance control board like a refrigerator control board. I want to show you how to use an ESR meter on how to find bad capacitors on a control board. In the video, we test a Whirlpool Washer control Board, and a Samsung Refrigerator Inverter Board with the ESR Meter. This is an introductory video that shows why you'd want to buy an ESR meter.

At the end of the video, I also add in a little about how to find a bad relay on a dryer control board, since I had one available. I hope this video gives you some guidance and ideas on how to deal with the meter and how checking capacitors works.
