You need to make it spin and listen to it for bearing damage. If it rumbles when spinning, forget it. Usually commercial machines are pretty well used up. |

they didn't say there was a problem, but the Control Board is electron,c p/n 201567P, $310. How often do control boards go out on these units? Do I test it just by doing a cycle? |

I saw your reply only after I had posted. By bearings, do you mean drum bearings, or something else? what else should I look at in a used laundromat washer? Thanks! |
