The W4 hardmount washer-extractors run from the W455H up to the W4300H, eight models. The digits after W4 show the size class, so a W4130H is a 130 pound machine, and the H marks it as hardmount. The data plate carries the model.
Compass Control uses a CPU board, I/O boards and a motor control unit, and it numbers its errors. An error 01 means fill time was exceeded, and errors 02 and 03 are door open and door lock failures. An error 10 means the drum did not drain. A service switch on the CPU board or the I/O board puts the machine in service mode so we can test inputs and outputs one at a time.
We repair these washers. The estimate is on paper first, and a machine that cannot be fixed at a sensible cost gets a frank answer.

What does the H in W4130H stand for?
The H marks a hardmount machine, anchored to the floor. The digits show the size class, and your data plate carries the whole model for parts.
What does error 01 mean on Compass Control?
The washer did not reach its water level in the time allowed. We check the supply, the valves and the level hose, then the control, and a blocked inlet screen is the first thing we look at.
What is service mode?
It is a mode started with the service switch on the CPU or I/O board. We use it to test the machine step by step and find the real cause.
