Ok , I just got done installing a washer machine.
Connected the cold , hot , drain pipes and plugged the machine into a electrical outlet.
Works fine.
But my question is their some way I can manually turn on the washing machine without pushing the start button.
Like is their some 2 wires in the back of the washing machine I can directly connect together or short to start the washing machine without having to push the start button.
I have done alot of HVAC work and we could always turn on the heater by touching a wire to the R and C labels on the 24 volt transformer of the furnance. Which in reality it is just what the thermostat is doing behind the scene. This is an example of bypassing the start button on the theormostat (heat) and directly controlling it. I am wondering if I some how bridge to wires/components in the back of the washer machine will it turn on??? Their must be some way???
Although I don't know the inner circuitary of a washing machine
<-anybody?
I do know all the inner workings of a furnace and every little circuit and component. It is usually listed on the furnace itself. But washers and dryer seem not to give to much detail on their inner circuitary.
Curious, I have the back panel of the washer completely off their looks like some relay's , inductor/transformer stuff , alot of wires seems the hot splits off into many branches....etc
Thanks for any help
