Know Your Whirlpool Washer
What Makes Whirlpool Washer Repairs Different
Both top and front load models will only run their spin when the lid or door switch registers the lid or door as fully closed and latched. Source: Whirlpool - Top Load Washer not Draining, not Spinning, and/or Leaving Wet Loads
Some models sense load size before filling, tumbling or spinning the drum briefly, and then set the water volume to match, so a partly filled tub is often normal. Source: Whirlpool - Why won't my washing machine fill with water
What Whirlpool Says to Check First
- Washer shaking or walking. Remove the shipping bolts, adjust the feet until all four sit firmly on the floor, and spread heavy and light items evenly in the drum. Source: Whirlpool - Washer is Vibrating, Walking or Moving
- Washer smells. Run the Clean Washer cycle monthly, use only HE detergent, take clothes out promptly, and leave the door open between loads. Source: Whirlpool - Removing Odors or Smells - Front Load Washer
Reading a Whirlpool Washer Error Code
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| F5 E2 | The door or lid lock cannot engage, often because something is blocking the latch area. Source: Whirlpool - Error Codes in Front Load Washers |
| F9 E1 | Draining is taking longer than expected; check the drain hose and standpipe and avoid excess suds. Source: Whirlpool - Error Codes in Front Load Washers |
| Sud / Sd | Too many suds were detected, usually from non-HE or too much detergent. Source: Whirlpool - Error Codes in Front Load Washers |
