Whirlpool (or Kenmore) washing machine may fail with an error code of F-51. That's generally the Rotor Position Sensor--a little 3-pronged board with Hall probes to measure when the magnets in the rotor for the motor swing past. They can fail, or even break. Or...
The screw holding the bottom of the assembly in place may start to come unscrewed, so the probe and rotor aren't close to each other any more. Tighten it up, and done--no replacement parts needed.
