Whirlpool Duet Washer F2 Error Code

Once the Whirlpool Duet washer control board picks up a "lengthy drain" condition the user interface displays the F2 Error Code.

Throughout many areas of the clean cycle the pump will switch on and try to drain water from inside from the tub. When the pump time surpasses 8 minutes water valves will switch off along with a F2 error code will expensive. In most cases the mistake code will surface however "disappearInch simply to surface one day, week, or month later. In other cases the mistake code will surface and won't disappear until professional repair is required.

You will find a couple of various things that create the lengthy drain or lack of ability to function effectively. The commonest problem I see is junk, bobby hooks, toothpicks, socks, under garments, bra under-wires, plastic, dryer sheets, along with other non-mentionable products:-> that in some way work there means by between your inner and outer tubs and obtain drawn in to the drain pump canal.

Another problem is really a defective or malfunctioned pump impeller. The impeller has a tendency to break from the shaft and rattle around rather than rotating inside a smooth fashion - that is needed for correct pump operation. What can cause this? Well, in the earlier paragraph I pointed out the junk that eventually will get drawn in to the washer pump canal. A number of this junk makes its well past the pump trap, whether it's sufficiently small, and triggered enough force on the impeller to break and finally break it.

So, exactly how should we verify if there exists a bad pump or we have to clean the pump canal? Easy, we decide step one, clean the pump canal - in the pump completely with the rubber drain baffle at the end from the washer.

Initial step, take away the bottom front panel of washer by helping to loosen and getting rid of the 3 screws situated in the very bottom front of panel. Take out lightly then pull lower to get rid of.

Next step, obtain a large bowl or shallow pan to trap water in the drain trap. Put the pan underneath the drain trap to trap water and take away the washer pump drain trap cover by rotating it counter clockwise. This might try taking some effort. Work gradually. Getting rid of the trap cover too quickly could cause an enormous quantity of water to ton out and cause harm. Take it off sufficient so that you can catch water in a controlled rate.

Once all water continues to be drained out, take away the trap cover completely and clean all gold coin and debris in the trap. Disconnect the hose clamp in the rubber baffle hose that connects in the pump to the foot of tub. Disconnect the big clamp in the hose at the end from the tub and take away the drain baffle. Inspect and fix it. Inspect and clean the hole at the end of tub to make certain any socks or under garments has not clogged it.

After we are sure things are obvious, and all things have been washed, stick your finger in to the front from the trap and feel in to the side from the pump in which the impeller is situated. Make certain there is not anything stuck inside it. Make certain the impeller moves freely. It ought to possess a piston kind of feedback feel when rotated. Make certain it's not damaged from the shaft. If any broken is observed then your pump will have to be changed.

These completed steps will help you resolve your F2 error code issues. If you're still getting issues then professional appliance repair shop is going to be needed.
