Description
This is the main control board for GE front load washing machines. The main board includes an integrated water pressure switch, and is not available separately as per GE.
WH22X36637 has been revised to WH22X37840
WH22X37840 replaces WH22X29532, WH22X30898, WH22X32057, WH22X32457, WH22X34659, WH22X35517, WH22X36637
Note that this board ONLY works for specific GE models, and may need programmed.
It is critical you verify the drain pump is in good working order! A failed drain pump will damage new control boards if not verified to be working!
The board fits the following models:
- GFW650S
- GFW850S
- PFW870S
- PFW950S
If your model has a different number, you will need to order the proper control board for it.
LEGIT!!! Installed control board and success!!! KEY NOTE: once installed text parts to the number on card to get personality code. Very important you do this so control board knows what model it’s in.

Worked perfectly!
My GE model GFW850SPN2RS stopped draining water. I initially thought it was the drain pump and changed that out, but it did not fix the issue. After more research, I found that most of the time you also have to change the control board. This control board looked like it had slight variations, but it worked perfectly. Turns out there was a circuit that blew on the original board. It was not difficult to do on my own. Saved myself about $700.
GFW850SPN5RS just over 1 1/2 years old . I live alone so lightly used. Estimate maybe 75 loads since new. Quit during wash cycle. With Ben’s YouTube video I was able to pull codes 92,32,18,38,26,27and 39. Went to function test 14 and was able to pump out with spin cycle. Then it would just turn on and shut off. Bought control board WH22X37840 from Ben’s and installed. Ben’s video is right on and best price out there. So far so good. Back in working order. Genuine GE part which is unfortunately what broke in the first place. Will see how long this one last. Likely the last GE product I’ll ever buy.
