Any one recognize this part number.
I'm curious what this Chinese aftermarket board fits.

BIG middle finger to the great satan of washing machines when I need a repair part next time.
I'll risk this part might suck for 11 bucks
The OEM sucks so what have i got to lose?

The controller board - it is probably for a Chinese Whirlpool front loader - quite likely not sold in USA or Canada.

We have had Chinese-made Whirlpool front loaders here in Australia for a long time, possibly 20 years?

I tried googling the part number in the Aliexpress ad but came up with nothing of substance.
I tried googling the part number printed on the PCB and found this Ebay ad:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/234944531537...

Which gave a model number, which I put into google and came up with this machine:

baike.baidu.com/item/%E4%B8%89%E...

So it's likely to be for a Chinese-made washing machine that is sold under Sanyo and Whirlpool badges.
(and possibly other brands as well.)

That shift mechanism sure looks like the one on my wife's machine...

There is a company in the USA called " Dinosaur boards " I used to purchase aftermarket regulators and control boards for Onan Generators Obsolete parts.
Prices were rock bottom.
The core charges were very low
I clued into shortly that I was never getting a refurbished board they were always new.
My other supplier Flight systems could never repair a board for that price always two or three times as much.

One day I went on a search after discovering the parts were coming from China.
A referb Flight board was 400 bucks
A Dinosaur was 125 bucks
The Guy in China making them charged me 59 bucks.

Now I search for Chinese parts because most of the time they are made there anyways.
Its just a question of finding the the supplier or a supplier that wants to muscle in and clone a part.
Making boards and assembly in a mom and pop shop is very cheap.

I found a lot of this in Asia.
An Indian company that will cast and machine parts.
A Chinese company for electronics
A Company in Vietnam that will make gaskets and rubber parts.

High quality with LOW LOW tooling.
We MAKE GOOD PART sir.
Sometimes they do sometimes they do a really good job
