Problem
There was no power to the control board
Tools
Torx bit, flat screw driver, multimeter
Repair & Advice
Use a torx bit to remove all the screws from the inner panel of the door. Then remove black cover to circuit board thermo fuse is on the right side and has two wires plugged into it one on each side. I used a multimeter to test continuity. To confirm it was bad. Replace it with a new one and it works.

Problem
Washer would not turn on.
Tools
Drill, nut driver, screwdriver, snips, electric tape.
Repair & Advice
I followed instructions from the appliance manual to get to the thermal fuse (taking the panels out to get to the main electric board, and putting everything back together was the most time consuming part of the repair). I followed the instructions that were provided with the new thermal fuse to replace it. The instructions provided were very clear, and the drawings matched exactly the parts and pieces involved in that repair. It made it pretty easy.
