The high voltage sensor will tell the reader whether the machine is running or not. 

Splice the two wires from the High Voltage sensor to wires coming from Pin2 and Pin3 from connector J1 on the power board. Pin2 and Pin3 are interchangeable (since they carry AC voltage). Connect the other end of the High Voltage sensor to the mating connector on the cable harness.

Step 7: Mount the Reader and Activate with Activation Card

Issue	Explanation and resolution
Reader display showing "BUSY" but machine not running	The problem is likely in one these three issues: 1)the High Voltage Sensor is not properly connected 2)there's a problem with the High Voltage Sensor. 3)there's a problem with the washing machine 4)there's a problem with the card reader If this is a new installation.... Chances are it is issue #1, so double check the splicing to the two grey wires. You should also do a reader Swap with a reader/machine that IS presently working. If this reader/machine was working before.... Then it is likely issue #2 or #3. Call into Laundroworks support for assistance. We can configure the reader to bypass the High Voltage Sensor to see if reader can start the machine.
Reader advances the mechanical timer too far when starting the machine; machine does not start	This might be related to the high voltage sensor. Call Laundroworks support. A technician should be able to bypass this sensor.
