LG F1480YD5 PF error code - powers off after 5 minutes of use

[KevinUK]

Hi,

I'm getting a PF (power failure) error code when doing a tumble dry or wash cycle after around 5 minutes of either (the whole machine powers off).

The machine is 12 years old.

After some Googling it sounds like I need to replace the PCB but I can't see anything on my machine that looks like a PCB on similar models that I've seen on YouTube, I was expecting to see a large rectangular circuit board.

Where should I be looking and any ideas on if it could be a different faulty part?

Thanks!

Where you see the control knob and the digital display look at that section and see what it takes to remove it from the machine
See if the front of the machine can be removed from the machine but be careful with the wiring and the tubing in this section and do not be tempted to just rip thing apart this is how parts get damaged and broken

Also if it has wiring plugs and if there are several plugs make sure that you take pictures of and if any of them are exactly the same then make sure that you take picture of each one and make sure that you mark them somehow to make sure that the plugs stay with the plug that should be connected there is nothing worse than plugging it in the wrong place bad thing can happen because of not taking the time to marking where things go
