Elite and Haier washer error codes
If you have a Kenmore Elite HE3 washer and you are getting error codes, this page will help you to
diagnose the problem. The most common error codes for this Kenmore washer is
faultcode F02, F11, F dl, F06, SUD, etc. We will show you below what these error codes mean and the solutions to fix them yourself.
Error code F02 – This means that the washer has a DRAIN issue. To fix this error code it is recommended to check the drain hose for kinks, and check the drain pump for anything that
may be clogging it. Check to be sure the pump filter is not jammed or clogged. Check drain pump electrical connections. Replace drain pump if all else fails.
Error code F11 – Means that the machine has a communication issue. Most likely the washer has vibrated enough to vibrate wires loose. You will need to remove the top of the washer and
inspect the wiring harnesses that go to and from the control board. One of the wires will probably be loose therefore causing this error code. Make sure all wire connections are secure.
Error code F dl – This fault code means that the washer door has a locking issue. Your washer will attempt to unlock the door 6 times before it displays the error. This error indicates a problem with the door lock mechanism and or door lock switch assembly. This error could also mean there is no communication between the control board and door lock. This could indicate a loose wire between the door lock assembly and the control board.
Error code F06 – Indicates a problem with the drive motor. The control panel is not able to detect the motors speed and therefore the machine will shut down. When the washer is in a spin
mode and this error occurs, the washer door will be locked for 3 minutes. Check wire harnesses on drive motor, motor control unit, and control board.
Error code SUD – This indicates that the washer has either the wrong detergent or an overload of detergent. SUD means excessive soap suds have been detected. To fix this issue run the
washer on a rinse cycle and then on a normal wash cycle and DO NOT add any detergent or clothing. This procedure will reset the washer and remove the excess detergent. If this does not
fix the issue, check the drain hose for kinks or bends. Check the drain pump filter. If the above does not resolve the issue, check the drain pump for clogs.
