Samsung WF365BTBGSF Starts and then stops only after it is unplugged for a while otherwise it wont power up at all

HELP! I have a Samsung Front Load Washer (Model WF365BTBGSF 4.1 cu ft). This is a newer machine that wont let you fiddle with the PCBs given they are covered with a jelly style moisture barrier.

Initially the washer stopped and displayed an error code (AE). I reset the machine. Removed the power cord and let it rest. I also reset the electrical breaker. The washer started back up and ran for the five minutes and then shut down completely. The AE code no longer displays – the machine display simply goes blank and eventually powers down. The AE fault code which only displayed the one time indicates a communication issue of the washers main components. I opened the machine, inspected it (looked for obvious wear, burns disconnected/loose connections) and decided to replace the main control panel (DC92-01527C) – RESULT: NO Change. NOT CHEAP.

Machine started up initially but powers down after 60-90 seconds. It continues to do this, provided it is unplugged or the electrical panel breaker has been turned off (removing all power to the machine) for an extended period before turning it back on.

My sense is there is a capacitor somewhere that needs to be replaced. I saw two small capacitors on the main board but my guess is they regulate power to the components on the PCB and there must be another regulating the motor.
