Error codes washing machines Whirlpool

Error code	Interpretation of code	Possible failure, elimination of damage
FH( F01). 1 LED.	There is no water entering the tank, or too little water has collected - it is not enough to wash.	If the FN or F01 error is on the display, it can be caused by a number of reasons: Insufficient pressure in the water pipe. Normalize pressure, consult plumbing. The water supply valve is only slightly open or completely closed - you need to open the taps. Clogged intake valve, or rather, its filter - requires cleaning. It is also worth eliminating the siphon effect, which provokes self-draining due to improper positioning of the water drain hose. The pressure switch is broken. Requires cleaning the hydraulic system( tubes) sensor. You may have to replace the pressure switch. The wiring of the valve, level sensor, or pump that drains water is out of order. Requires maintenance of wires and contacts: check, stripping, replacement. instagram viewer Failure of the electronic unit. It is necessary to replace defective areas or the entire module.
FA( F02). 5 and 9 LEDs.	Triggered Aquastop.	When the system shows a FA or F02 error, it is worthwhile to take into account such possible causes of failure: The inlet valve is blocked. Valve replacement will help. The system has leaked due to the depressurization of the tank, nozzles and hoses. Finding the cause of the leak, it is worth replacing the part with the defect. It is important! The MCA tank cannot be repaired, but it is expensive to change it. Consider buying a new car. Module is broken - partially or completely. Repair or complete replacement of the module will help.
FP( F03). 5, 6, 8 LEDs.	Failure in the drainage system - waste water does not leave the tank.	If the FR is highlighted, and in some models of F03, this can be caused by three reasons: The pump, which is pumping out the waste water, has served its own - it could burn out or weaken the contacts, clog up its filter. How to fix: if the pump is no longer repairable, then it is worth replacing the part with a new one. The drain hose or other element of the drain system is blocked. To eliminate the blockage, you need to clean all the links of the drain chain by rinsing them under the tap. The control unit has broken - partially or completely. The solution to the problem in the repair or complete replacement of the unit.
F04. 4 and 9 light bulbs.	Failure of the heating system, or rather: the water does not warm up to the desired temperature in the time allotted by the program.	You can clear the F04 error after checking the sensor circuit, maintaining the contacts, replacing wires with defective areas. If NTC is broken, then the sensor needs to be replaced with an original part.
F05. 4, 6, 9 light bulbs.	Temperature sensor failure.	To eliminate the F05 error, you need to check the resistance of the temperature sensor and replace the faulty element.
F06. 4, 5, 9 indicators.	Tachogenerator does not send signals. Error F05 or F06 is accompanied by the fact that the motor rotates at low speed or does not work at all.	Most likely, the failure is in the tachogenerator. Probably, the fixing spring washer has flown from its place. Sometimes it is enough just to restore the normal position of the washer. In case of other damage, the tachogenerator must be replaced. The second option: the connection in the circuit is broken TACHO - motor - board. You need to reconnect
F07. 4, 5, 6, 9 light bulbs.	Motor control circuit is broken.	F07 error means: Fault in the area of the motor control board. The decision to replace the burnt triac. Faulty control unit. Sludge repair will help replace the entire module.
F08. 3 and 9 LEDs.	Water heater broken - TEN.	When the Whirpool washing machine generates an F08 error, it can be caused by the following factors: The heater has burnt, or its wiring has broken, the contacts have oxidized. Contact maintenance or heater replacement will help. The pressure switch is broken. Failure of the electronic unit. Thermistor circuit is broken. Inspect the contacts and thermistor for serviceability, replace the sensor.
F09.	Water overflow detected.	When F09 is lit on the display, consider first of all these possible causes of failure: The pressure sensor is broken. Requires replacement of the sensor nozzles or the pressure switch itself. The inlet valve is out of order. To eliminate the damage, you need to replace the part. Control module malfunction. Replace the board section or the entire control unit.
F10.	Motor breakdown.	With the F10 code, the most likely causes of engine failure are: Thermal sensor error. If you cannot repair this item, you will have to change the entire control unit or motor. Triac failed. The problem is solved by replacing individual sections of the control unit of the washing machine Whirlpool.
F11.	Breakdown of communications.	Check the voltage level in your home's power grid; if the parameters are inappropriate, then it is worth restoring the optimal parameters. You may have to contact an electrician.
F12. 3, 4, 9 LEDs.	No heating, washing occurs in cold water.	Reset errors occur after eliminating the causes of the breakdown: There was a sticking of the relay responsible for heating the water - located on the electronic unit. Relay replacement required. TEN broke or punches on the case of the Whirlpool washing machine. If, after checking the heater with a tester, you are convinced that it is broken, replace the heating element. Break in the wiring between the heater and the module. Requires wire maintenance. Thermal sensor failure.
F13. 3, 4, 6, 9 light bulbs.	Water either runs too long or does not fill at all.	Code F13 appears in such cases: Reduced pressure in the water pipe. It is necessary to take measures to normalize the pressure. Powder cuvette clogging - remove the dispenser and rinse. If you can not remove, clean directly on the machine. The filler valve is blocked. Usually, cleaning the filter screen is enough to fix the problem.
F14. 3, 4, 5, 9 LEDs.	Invalid EEPROM values.	Most likely, the failure touched the processor. Requires controller firmware or replacement of the control module completely.
F15. 3, 4, 5, 6, 9 indicators.	In many CM models the Whirlpool F15 code denotes an electric motor breakdown.	To find a way out of the situation, it is enough to determine the cause of the breakdown and localize it: Replace the components of the control board: a relay or a triac. Replace engine brushes or the entire motor. Replace tachogenerator in the event of a malfunction. Check wiring between motor and board. Repair or replace the command block.
F16.	Breakdown of the control system.	What will help: Checking contacts. Replacing parts of the board. Replacement Board.
Fod( F18). 2, 5, 9 light bulbs.	Machine is blocked due to improper powder. Accompanied by increased foam formation.	How to troubleshoot: Use a different, better powder. Change the dosage of detergent. Turn the machine off and on.
F19.	Disrupted power supply. Error F19 is accompanied by a stop of the washing mode, or the machine does not turn on at all.	Possible causes: Low voltage. The integrity of the power cord or plug is broken. Broken socket. Blown out the CMA power filter.
F20.	Disrupted command board.	Restarting the wash mode may help. If it does not help, you need to repair or replace the board.
F21. 2, 4, 6, 9 indicators.	Failed control module.	Most likely, with the F21 code, the circuit between the board and the control panel was broken. Helps to maintain contacts and wiring. If it does not bear fruit, you need to repair or change the fee.
F22.	Code F22 may indicate 2 failures: Fault in the heating element. There is no water entering through the powder receiver due to clogging.	In order for the washing machine to stop producing an error, eliminate the causes of the failure: Heater failure. Need a replacement. The wiring between the heater and the board was cut off. Required TO wiring. The mains voltage fell to a level insufficient for the operation of the AGR.
F23. 2, 4, 5, 6, 9 light bulbs.	The intake system failed, the user receives signals from the CM about an empty or full tank.	The pressure switch may be broken, you need to replace it.
F24. 2, 3, 9 light bulbs.	A water level monitoring system broke down. The signal that the tank is full is given for more than 1 minute.
F26. 2, 3, 5, 9 indicators.	Motor does not rotate.	In this case, the problem may not be in the motor, but in the module.
F27. 2, 3, 5, 6, 9 LEDs.	Rotation of ED only in one direction.	Blown motor relay on electronic module.
F28. 2, 3, 4, 9 indicators.	The operation of the motor failed - it does not turn fast enough or does not turn on at all.	Cause of breakage in the stator winding switching relay. Need to replace the defective item.
F31.	A rare error, typical only for recent CMA Whirlpool models. Indicates that the software has not been updated via the Internet.	To solve the problem: Contact your ISP. Contact an authorized service center.
FDL.	The hatch lock is broken.	Probably, UBL contacts have worn out. If everything is fine with the contacts, replace the blocker.
FDU.	The hatch door is not closed tightly enough.	Proceed as follows: Close the hatch tightly. Check UBL, if it is broken, replace it.
bdd. 2-6, 9 indicators.	Drum doors are not properly closed.	What to do: click on “Reset”, hold for 3 seconds and wait for the message “Drum is open”. After you need to open the lid, re-close the sash drum, select the program and run it. If the error persists, contact the wizard.

Whirlpool washing machines from different years report a breakdown in two ways:

The old model signals a combination of light bulbs.
New typewriter shows fault codes on the display.

Understanding what each code means, you can quickly reanimate the washing machine by helping it yourself or by telling the nature of the problem to the master.

For those who have lost the user manual, we have prepared a table with the codes for Whirlpool typewriters. We collected in the table codes and combinations for all models, described what each code means and what to do to save the machine from breakage.
