Wow.....such clear, simple instructions. Been fighting with my washer for a couple of days. Finally tripped over your video, and thought I'd give this a try. Used the information you provided to identify the problem (bad water pump). Luckily, you also had another video on how to replace my pump. Following your instructions to the letter. I just replaced the pump. I'M DOING LAUNDRY NOW!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

were you able to get it to do a diagnostic test like in the video?

Sorry for the delay in getting back with you on this question. So that I understand the problem, What do you mean by "it fills for a few seconds then goes to next step in cycle"? I don't quite understand. Thanks!

Hi again and thanks for the great video. I ran the diagnostics, but the washer stalled at C7. Obviously, the drain pump is not working. I did the diagnostics test for pumps but it doesn't work. I had tested the pump with an outside source of power and it works fine. Do you think I need a new control board? Help please. Thanks

Thanks so much for your help! I had a repairman look at it while I waited for your response and he felt like the rods needed replacing. I hope this includes your recommendations.

Thank you, I reset and it is actually is washing a load, the only problem now is the timer is going the different minutes for heavy, normal, medium, light minutes flashing (like it's changing the minutes 40,37,34, 31 and keeps decreasing in minutes as the load processes. So I'm waiting to see how long this load washes.

@xzqzq It takes a very long drain time to activate the LD and F32 error codes. So you probably do have a blockage somewhere. I usually use a Shopvac to suck out as much water as possible from inside the washer, then tip the washer back so you can get at the drain pump (unplug it first and be ready for a lot more water.) Partially remove the hose from the tub to the pump and get the water under control, then remove the pump and have a look inside. If it's clear, are all 4 fins intact?

Does this work for the dryer, same make and model just the dryer to this set?

I'm getting the LF code during the rinse cycle only. No water is being sprayed over the clothes thus triggering the LF code. There is no problem filling at the start of the cycle though. Are there seperate valves for filling and rinsing?

Great! As far as clearing the stored codes on that model... I don't think so. As far as I can tell it keeps a full error log that cannot be cleared. If you find a way I would love to hear about it! Thanks for the comment!

@applianceassistant Well, it has been taken apart - super easy to work on. A wash cloth and a piece of bra wire had lodged into the drain, and when the pump was removed a quarter fell out. Damage wise, two of the fins in the pump were broken, so I'm just going to buy a new one and save the old pump as a spare, just in case. Can you recommend any kind of "simple" method of flushing the drain pan of anymore trash without a tear-down?

bummer!... Thanks for the tip! I'm glad you got it working again!

I did not find any recall information on the duet, oasis, or bravos washers or dryers... if you do find info please post!! Thank you!

The drain pump should be on at C7 until the inner basket drops and is engaged on the basket hub + 10 seconds...Do you here the pump making any noise? if the pump is running and just not moving water it may be broken or clogged, you may also have a clog at the outer tub where the drain pump connects. however, if it is not being energized you would need to check if power is getting to the pump from the control's P4 connection.

Awesome video thanks for the help. I received a fault code of F68. Could you shed some light on this. Thanks for the input.

I'm having trouble with my whirlpool cabrio. it's displaying f 54....... can anyone help fix this issue?

The faint click may be the relay in the board closing to energize the pump. You may want to double check the connections to the drain pump. To be sure you would need to measure for 120 Volts AC at the wires to the drain pump. I would start with that if there was a clog in the tub you should still hear the drain pump turn on.

Have the Whirlpool Washer Cabrio Top-Load Model WTW5640XW3, have no water coming in at start up, went thru the diagnostic error code look up procedure, and only got F0 and E0 readings, can you help me?, still no water. Seems to go thru thru the water attempt twice I can hear a valve, and the lid locks like it should....no water entry....Thanks a million

Nice! Thanks for the comment! and encouragement!

Great Video, Any chance you know how to get a Whirlpool Cabrio wtw5550xw0 in diagnostics mode? my will spin sometimes other times not drain and sometimes it will pause thru the cycle and i have to hit start again and it will spin and drain but never say done when its done talk about a 600$ pile of junk

I have a Whirlpool cabrio platinum and it is leaking on the inside. Dripping water into the tub. What is causing this drip, I have to put a bucket in to catch it so the water doesn't sour.

Hello, great video! I did a diagnostic and came up with a f72. Any suggestions on what to do next? It will not spin at this point

I have a whirolpool cabrio washer, when the machine is in the cycle of strikes wring sideways grabs and stops noisy and not what the problem is overloaded

Have a Kenmore Elite Oasis. Ran the full diagnostic mode and everything works. Problem is when I actually go to start a wash load, power comes on but start button does't work. Can anyone help?

Thanks for the comment! It's always encouraging to hear success stories!

Hi, I have an Ld code with my Oasis washer (HE). It stops after the wash cycle before spinning, so it stays full of water. The water intake is normal. I took the pump out and it's clean, and so are the drain system and the basket. The pumps works fine (when I connected it to an outside source of power). I always use the right powder (no sudding). There is no moisture or rust in the control board area. I unplugged it for a while and restarted it, same thing. What else could the cause be? Thanks.

@OftenMisled You take the good with the bad I guess and just keep on going... I'm sure I've accidentally flaked on my manners a time or two...not often though! it always feels good to get a thank you :) Thanks for the comment...

What is your washer's model number and original problem? That step should be drain and slow spin... Do you hear the drain motor? is the water draining out of the washer okay? Is the outer basket spinning at all?

Did you get any codes by doing the diagnostic test?

Getting the dl error door lid? What can i do?

It's a little tricky on that style of washer. You have it right and it should work if the timing is correct. If it does not then you may have a board problem. Think of it as a safe combination but before you start the process clear the knob at least three full rotations to the left... then one click each: R - R - R - L - R with a very short pause between each move. If it works all the lights should turn on.

Hi, I have a maytag bravos washer. During the spin cycle it will bang around and knock around so hard the machine stops and gives me an error code. This happens even if I run a test with no clothes inside the machine. I think the drum is loose. What can I do to fix it? Thanks in advance. Your site is very helpful to a layman like myself.

@applianceassistant Hi do I let each code go through it's stage or keep clicking because my washer have about 4 codes that would show up it runs a little but I kept going through each code and after I decided to was a small load it stopped again on 13 mins left of spin cycle

We have a Cabrio Washer WTW8100bW. It runs fine but when it changes to the next cycle, we get an OL code. My wife has to change the cycle manually. The manual says over load but that’s not the case. Light loads. Any suggestions?

F1 is a general control board error : ( Any other symptoms? Or is it not working at all?

Sorry for the delay! What is your washing machine's brand and model number?

Hi, we have a Maytag Bravos xl and we tried this and it didn't provide any information. any other ways to get a diagnosis?

I do the automatic diagnostic it goes to all All the cycles but at cycle c8 about 5 minutes stops and gives me code f72 what is that can u help please

That is the newer style of Cabrio that Whirlpool released after I created this movie. It is completely different mechanically and has kind of a tricky diagnostic mode. Take a look at the lid striker that is attached to the lid (the part the inserts into the lock.) The back of the strike is open and leaves the internal magnet exposed allowing it to swell with rust. When that happens the lock cannot close all the way so it will do what you are describing. If not email me through my website.

My Cambrio doesn't show 88 or any number. I hold the SOIL LEVEL button for 3 seconds, release, hold, then release like you've said( or I have hearing problems) and it didn't work.

I have an error code F0E5, could you please tell me what that means

My Whirlpool Cabrio is giving me the "uL" code with nearly EVERY load (no matter the size or if I try to redistribute the load...even to the point of removing some items that may be heavier than others). What do I need to replace as far as repair?

I want to thank everyone who posts here for helping diagnose my machine codes. In replacing my discharge pump, I noticed I was getting water level change errors then after,only to find someone at my house had nearly turned the water off to the valves thus causing "lack of level change" errors. This may have been what was causing the clothes to entangle and so on which was another part of my original story. Stick to those codes folks. Your machine is talking to you.

Amazing, solved my problem, ready to go back and do what I enjoy the most in this beautiful world.....LAUNDRY.....of course! Thank you!

Hello, I have Whirlpool Cabrio Model WTW6200SW2 washer, during the cycle UL comes up on the screen and also no matter what load size you have choosen it over fill the water in 2nd rinse and then spin at the time to rinse therefore sill lots of water. Once I pause the machine and then Start again the remaining load finish normal but if left un attended then flooding... Please help. Thanks

This diagnostic was a great gift!!!!! Performed this on my cabrio and got it to cycle through and corrected itself! Keep up the good posts! People really need them!

You will need to measure for 120 VAC out of the control where the drain pump plugs in on "P4" terminal when the pump should be running... Hopefully you have a broken wire or bad connection... If you need parts I would greatly appreciate it if you purchase through the links on my site. Thanks for the question! Good luck!

My Whirlpool Cabrio washer, type 580, wtw6400sw3, cy0270534, is faulting during the rinse exhaust, showing ' LD' at @ 13 minute mark. I took the drain hose off, made sure hose & drainpipe clear, ran diagnostic, showed only ' F32'... Attempted a new wash load - worked OK for the wash cycle, faulted at the end of rinse cycle. Any idea what the problem is ? Thanks for the help !!

Its nice he's coming back on a Sunday! Don't rake him over the coals to bad sounds like he wants to get it right... such is the nature of machines and repair and mistakes do happen. Did it work properly after he installed the new pump before he left?

Great! Thanks for the comment!

I'm sorry to hear about that! I would turn it in as a loss to the insurance company... The control board is probably shorted out but even if you replaced that part all 3 motors would be damaged. Good luck!!!

F51 is an RPS (Rotor position sensor) error. That is the sensor that detects motor movement. They like to do this error but the RPS is almost never the cause. Sometimes unplugging and reconnecting the connections to the sensor and the control board several times will clean of any corrosion that has built up and may be causing the communication error. I have a repair guide on my website, but accessing the lower RPS contacts is not very easy. Might be worth a service call if you trust a company.

my washer is saying f2 and is constantly making a beeping noise. replaced both boards and it still dont work. sometimes it will come on and sometimes i get no power at all. does anybody know wht this could be?

The SD code is usually for suds or a long drain code. you may be able to get it to work by letting the suds turn back to liquid and then trying to drain/spin again. if that doesn't work you may have a problem with your drain pump, pressure switch or control... but probably the drain pump. hope that helps! Good luck!

@xzqzq My pleasure. Thanks for the comment!

Hi I have wtw6400sw0 sd code on my washer it drain fine but when it wont go to spin cycle it wil stay on 8 min and after few min SD code wil showup

I ran the diagnostic test and now what? I have whirlpool cabrio model # wtw7600xw0. It is givong me error code f2, which from an interet search seems to be a stuck button. How do I fix this? Or what is my next step aftet diagnostic. Thank you for all your help! You really are great :)

Hi again, I tried your 3 second process and it's showing Error "F70", then I hit the key again to go to ** mssg then it went through C1, C2... cycle. Now what do I do to fix the "F70" Error and what does it means?

mine keeps giving me a HC code, I looked into it and it means hot cold water lines reversed... I ran hot water upstairs so I could identify the hot water line and hooked it up the the machine where it says hot... same with cold blah blah... why would it be saying that?

I have the Whirlpool Cabrio all the sudden it stops spinning out starts shaking like crazy you have to fix the clothes and make them right even to make it spin out and then has time that don't even work what needs fixed

That means that the basket never reengaged to the drive hub. You will probably need to replace the hub part#280145. They tend to get stripped out.

I have the exact washer mine runs the water cycles but wont spin any ideas?

on the newer whirl[pool cabrio washers how do i acess the diagnostic codes,

Thanks so much for teaching us how to fix the washing machine.. got jamed.. but it's c8 now.. let's hope it works again. Thanks so much.

@Alprazolam Thanks for the complement! your video looks good... don't take it down.

I have a cabrio that is getting to rinse/spin and then popping up with LD error. I checked line and seems to not be clogged. I also ran diagnosis test and stayed on C8 and would go no further or shut off. Any suggestions?

i turned it to drain and spin to try and get the water out...all i hear after pressing start is a very faint click... it isn't the lid lock click because thats louder... there was nothing stuck in the long drain (which was the original LD code I saw displayed when it stopped draining the other day) when i ran the diagnostics it says F32.... which i thought was the drain pump... how do i check the internal basket to see if anything is stuck there.

Sorry for the delay in response! I put a link in the description of the video for the diagnostics guide on my website it is much more complete than this video. F68 is a stored version of F1 which is primary control failure It's vague so hard to say for sure but you may need a new control : (

Hello, I have a Whirlpool Cabrio top loading HE machine. Looks exactly like the one in the video above per the control panel. I have been getting an LF code. It seems to be filling on some cycles but not others. I ran a ‘clean washer’ cycle and it did fill up all the way. It seems to not be filling at certain times in the cycle though. Sounds like it’s trying to by the sounds it makes. I cleaned the inflow screens and checked the inflow pressure, etc., it’s all ok. I’ve taken the inflow valve part out of the washer and I’m going to check it with an OHM next. Are there any other issues that would cause this code that I’m overlooking? I’ve had to fix this washer more than a few times myself. Getting ready to dump it if it’s going to be more complicated at this point. Any help is greatly appreciated! Mother of 4 and I need this washer to run consistently every day. 🙏

hi, i have a whirlpool cabrio. it wont power on and did the test from video and i get a f70. it went thought C0-C9 fine and still wont power on. any advice please

Depending on how gummed up the hub and drive shaft are it may be easy and may be a pain... The cap of the agitator/wash plate will come off by prying from the side seam with a screwdriver. Then remove the 7/16" bolt and remove the agitator. you should see the hub. You then need to look it over really good for striped gear teeth anything that might keep the basket from lifting free when the tub floats. I have more info on my website. Good luck!

I have a Maytag Bravos that is stopping in cycle and showing a F 54 Code?

Sorry for the slow response. That would most likely point to your motor getting hot... You may have something like a small sock stuck between the inner and outer tubs. I have a service manual for that washer available on my website. Its not to difficult to pull the inner tub out and check.

When my whirlpool cabrio goes into the drain and spin cycle it gives me a ld code. I did the diagnostic test and got a F32 error code. Can you tell me what that means?

How do you replace tub displacement/ out of sync sensor on Maytag Neptune TL, model # FAV6800AWW? Thanks.

Sounds like the inner tub is hung up... It should move up and down on the drive shaft pretty smoothly. When the tub fills with water it should allow the tub to float up and disengage from the drive hub for agitation, then drain out and sink to engage the hub for spin. You will need to pull the inner tub and check the hub. You may also want to clean (with sandpaper) and lightly lubricate the drive shaft. Hope that helps, good luck!

are there instructions on how to do that somewhere? my cabrio keeps quitting with the oL code like 15 minutes into a wash out of no where and i dunno what to do.

i have a maytag bravos xl and it is giving f l what does it mean?

Thanks brother, So I spend $240 bucks on a new controller but now I'm getting a F83 display and after 8 mins of running it skips to 4 mins failing to agitate and drains completely. Any Ideas?

I'm in the military my washer was in storage for over 3 1/2 years. I re-started and does not complete the wash cycle. Water fills no issues but does not wash; after a few attempts of washing goes to spin and at the end I get OL with a really small load. any suggestions??

F51 is a rotor position sensor error so you may also need to check the wire connections to the RPS. I would start with cleaning the drive shaft and see if the F51 comes back. You need to pull the motor stator to check the RPS so hopefully it was just a fluke. If you look under the washer the round plastic disk (rotor) should be clean, if there is water or rust residue on it you have a larger problem of the tub seal leaking : ( hopefully not... Good luck!

Help i have a Cabrio wtw5500 model...is there away to find a code for it? It seems like the sensor may not be recongnizing that the lid is closed and it won't stay locked. It will lock to start and the it unlocks and won't continue the wash. Please help!

I have Whirlpool Cabri 6400SW3. All diagnostics are normal. Certified technician unable to fix problem even with help from manufacturer. Washer works perfectly through all cycles when empty. With wash, it fills for a few weconds then goes to next step in cycle. Tech replaced pressure hose, electronic panel, etc. still same problem. I am left to buy a new machine wh this one works perfectly (without wash in it)!?

On a Whirlpool Cabrio, if you get a 0L or a UL code. The bottom load sensor on the stator could be bad. Watch Cabrio videos on here for better details. The washer will usually stop with 3 minutes left and give error code.

thank so much for your help ,very good video

Hi. I had a F7E5 Shifter Fault error code on my Whirlpool wtw4800xq2. I have replaced the actuator, and the washer is working fine. However, when I re-run the diagnostics, it still shows the same code. Is there a way to reset the diagnostic codes? Should it reset by itself?

I’m getting error code LE on my whirlpool Cabrio. The washer works just fine but at end of cycle if I don’t turn machine off manually the whole cycle starts again all on its own.

That is a calypso washer. id is probably LD for long drain. You may have a problem with the drain pump... fairly common problem on that washer type. “Ld” flashes if it takes longer than 5 minutes to pump out water to a point where the operating pressure switch resets. The automatic service diagnostics mode is activated by pressing: SOAK - SOIL LEVEL - SOAK - SOIL LEVEL Pump Motor correct resistance values RD to WH 10 - 12 ohms YL to WH 10 - 12 ohms RD to YL 20 - 25 ohms Good luck!

Yasin Polat, I don't have the option to reply to your question... Not sure why but doesn't seem to be any way to comment here or on your page. Sorry. First try unplugging the washer for a few minutes to reset the control. But it sounds like the start button on your washer may be broken... Does the start button feel different from the others when you press it? If thats it, the console is an expensive part but you can get in there with some super glue or epoxy and carefully fix the plastic tab that is probably broken. Good luck!

I know this test well, but I have a problem with the new maytag bravo washers. Model mvwx700xlo, In that tech manual it says to clear the board by turning the selector knob counterclockwise then within 6 seconds turn clockwise 1/2 sec, turn clockwise 1/2 sec again 1/2 sec then counterclockwise 1/2 sec, then clockwise 1/2 sec. I've tried this on several Maytag Bravos and can't get it in diagnostic mode!! Please if anyone can tell me what I am doing wrong???

Hi i was watching your video, and i just wanted to know were i can get a manual for the machine. I bought this machine on creigs list and in very good condition almost brand new. He did not have the manual and it is hard to know what the machine is doing when a certain light goes on and i do not know what it means. Well anyways the whirlpool cabrio wtw6400sw can you please give me some feed back. thanks jp

My washer filled up with water and quit spinning, So ran a diganostic test and it shows F72 what does this mean?

I have been getting an oL code on my washer. I did this diagnostic test and CO popped up and then it has C1 and started to run a cycle. And also had the add garment light on

I have problem with cambio washer, it runs fine and washes but lately when it is in its last spin cycle, and as it starts t spin i hear a strange sound like plastic parts sound . the sound stops and then it continues spinning and drying. does anyone know the possible cause. is there something in back a roller or guide that needs replaced. please advise

I have a whirlpool cabrio washer and I tried running the diagnostic test and it wouldn't even start doing it. I even used a stopwatch to keep track of the 3 second intervals. What do I do?

I have whirlpool Cabrio error code Lt It’s in test mode It washes them starts a cycle again🥴 How do you get that error code off?

I did the troubleshoot and the C cycles finished but then it stopped again, please help.

My whirlpool Cabrio has a F code. I'll be sure to try this and come back with the results. Gee guy, thanks alot.

I just replaced all 4 suspension rods and when it gets to the last spin, it gives me a UL CODE and it stops. what should I do?

(cont.) Additional info: Water does not drain; when turned on normally, the washer makes an occasional clanking sound while buzzing; and lid does not lock on diagnostic nor normal wash. Any help would be MUCH appreciated.
