The GLD series is at the age where the control board is a realistic suspect rather than a last resort, but it should still not be the first thing replaced. Water temperature, the filter and the spray arms explain most wash complaints even on an ageing machine.
An owner can clean the filter and arms, check the high loop and confirm the supply temperature at the nearest tap. Board diagnosis, pump work and anything behind the door panel is a technician job with the machine isolated.
