Just a note guys, this was one of the first videos I did on my channel. KZbin won't let you update a video as much as I'd like, so I did another video for a Maytag Washer, but the codes and such are almost exactly like this, but more extensive as I've gotten a little better at doing videos.

Great Video! Before you do ANY of this though, do a "hard reset" by (1) unplugging the washing machine for >1 minute (2) plug in then rapidly open/close the lid 6 times within 12 seconds. My washing machine didn't even have the lights come on and this was the magical solution.

My Whirlpool had a sensing light flashing. You raise the light up and down six times realfast. Then lay about a six pound weight on the corner of the lid where the lock switch is. That stops the vibration to the lock switch. fixed mine. apparently the lid vibrates and cretes a signl to the lock switch.

This video saved me, from buying my mother a new washer. Thanks so much. Recent winter storm, her pipes burst - shorted the logic board and filled the tub with water. Getting into diagnostic mode and seeing the codes helped me realize, that there was too much water in the wash basin and after removing 3 pitchers of water, the washer started emptying the rest. It now working again.

I got it on the first try. DO NOT turn the dial quickly as instructed in other videos. Thank you young Ben!! 😀😀😀

HERE'S HOW TO CALIBRATE the Amana after you replace the shock absorbers or other major parts: Go to diagnostic mode as described in this fellows video. All the LED's will be lit. FIRST make sure there is no clothes or water in the basket. Then all you do is ROTATE the control knob until the MIDDLE led is lit . You will have 2 leds NOT-LIT to the left and 2 NOT-LIT on the right. (ignore the RED LED). Now it is in CALIBRATION mode!! all you have to do to ACTIVATE CALIBRATION mode is press the START button. Then the machine will go through some 2 minutes of clicking and spinning the motor. Just be patient and wait for it to do its thing. Then it finally clicks and ALL THE LED's are OFF. That means it is done with CALIBRATION. wash some clothes and see if it is fixed. Mine is fixed but ONLY replacing the shock absorbers DID NOT FIX IT. It must be calibrated any time you replace a major part like that. I found my REPAIR MANUAL book inside the washer on the FRONT panel. Only had to remove the TOP PANEL to get the repair manual.

I have this exact washer. We had a small flood in our basement, and after we got the water out and all of that taken care of, our poor washer has been broken ever since. It had a red steady light after the flood, but we got it working again. However, now it wont do a final spin, and we have to do a drain and spin cycle after its done to get it to do a spin to have the clothes not be soaked to put it in the dryer. Im going to run these diagnostics and see what i get. Thanks!

Thanks so much for this guide to reading the error codes--SO helpful! From a comment on another video, I learned this valuable bit of info. Mine was right where the commenter said it would be. Before your video, I'd been running diagnostics but couldn't figure out how to read the error codes! "I found that the service manual is included in the washer casing. When in front of the unit, open lid, look into tub (back at yourself) and in the now upper right corner is the service booklet in a plastic bag stuck to the front of the inside of unit. It goes through all of the codes and steps to test the unit."

I know your comment is a yr old, but hoping to find some info! Whirlpool washer wouldn't drain so I figured out it was the pump ordered had someone take off old one but they couldn't come out new one on as soon as I needed do we called a man that has been working on them yrs and yrs. Well he charged $100.00 and yes it will pump water out but it is making a click somewhat on verge of a grind sound not for long but just while it's switching from after washing to start rinse spin. But it sounds like it's spinning and still swishing like a wash cycle at same time. I have reset it.

Transmission/clutch were fine, turned out to be the shifter module.

I ordered a new water inlet valve, they sent one that didn’t fit. I called and ordered the (correct🤞🏽) new one, and not only was it the right one....they sent me 2 ✌🏼of them! Anybody know of any washer that uses 2 inlet valves? .....eh, didn’t think so.😅 Anyways, I replaced the inlet valve, ran diagnostics, cleared the fault codes, and successfully did a load of laundry. fireonice143

Hi!!!! This was a GREAT video!! Bookmarked the page for future reference! I'm trying to repair my Mom's Amana NTW4650YQ0 top load washer and the control board was burnt so I bought another board with the same part number off of eBay labelled as a Whirlpool control board. I know that a variety of brands will carry the same type of control board so I was pretty confident as the part number was the same. I installed the new board, plugged in, set the machine to a small load and the machine filled fine then the lid locked and it went into wash mode. So far so good, right? Cycled out of wash mode and went in to rinse mode and then all lights went off so I took the hose off and drained all the water to try again. I tried entering diagnostics based on other KZbin videos but your detailed video really did the trick and I finally succeeded. I tried manual diagnostics and the machine entered all the cycles and I could hear the drum spinning so the rinse/spin seems to be working fine but I don't know why it's not rinsing during regular use. I also ran the diagnostics and only the "fill" LED flashed so I'm assuming everything is fine. What else can I try?

Went back one click left, pushed start, all lights light and blink and just stay blinking. One click right and only the sensing fill button lights. I did not hit start again. This is an Amana belt drive machine. If I put the machine in "Clean Washer with Affresh" mode it goes through all the cycles with no problem. This makes me doubt it is a mechanical problem?

Just wished you would've explained that on some washing machines that wash could actually be the #8 then it would go 4 2 1 and lid lock would act as your #0!!!!

I've done updated videos on this. Sadly, KZbin hates the idea of editing videos, otherwise I'd of added more content to it. The problem is that older versions of these washers (like the one in the vid) add the #8 in there, while older ones only went up to 4. I made this video before that was a frequent thing with these style washers.

The lights indicate the equivalent BINARY NUMBERS of the code; you do not add them together - you translate them. Search "binary numbers" for how to read a binary number. The leftmost light does indicate subsystem and component (F & E codes). Also, Whirlpool tapes a printed service guide inside the washer casing. This guide has the codes and other service guides. Don't let a repair person take it from the machine's owner.

Saved having someone come out and check that needed a new board and with cost of that plus board could get a new washer. Which is what we are going to do.

Hi, I have an Amana washer and I did the diagnostic like you showed. The only light that keeps flashing after I press is the sensing fill. Do you have idea what it is? I am having problems with the sensing fill mode, it does not stop until the washer is full.

Is the only light its showing in the actual error code lookup is sensing fill, nothing else - or is it that when you try to start a cycle, all it does is flash sensing fill and nothing else?

@@MariaMoreno-iy6nm GENERALLY that means it cannot detect any fail codes. If you cycle through the next one or two codes and get the same info, there may not be any major codes stored in it. Having said that, the sensing fill light flashing when the machine is running, and not doing anything else 'til its filled - it may be a pressure hose/switch problem on detecting proper fill volumes which typically doesn't have a code to it. I would suggest re-calibrating the machine, and make sure that clear plastic pressure hose isn't damaged.

Bens Appliances and Junk thank you so much for replying back and for sharing your video. We think is a major problem with the transmission because the agitator does not spin when is put to wash. And we also found oil leak at the bottom of the washer 😥

- UPDATE: After emptying my washer halfway, which was stuck with a full tub and did nothing, I finally got the lights to blink. Here's what I did: - After doing the counterclockwise full rotation reset on the cycle knob and THEN DOING THE FOLLOWING PATTERN, I GOT THE LIGHTS TO BLINK & DO WHAT HE SAYS. - *Amana: (in the manual): R3×, L1, R1 - But after that I'm stuck because everytime I turn the knob one click I get a different error code set, so that could be like 12 or more. What am I supposed to do with all these codes?!

Hi, I just released a video involving a maytag washer - uses the same system to check/test the various diagnostic modes, including testing the Shift Actuator. I would check to see what happens when you try to force it out of spin mode to agitate. If you can't do it, then the shift actuator underneath is bad.

Older washers don't have an electronic board that allows code access. Could be a good thing, though, as they tend to last a LOT longer.

- 6:18 How EXACTLY do you, "go thru" all the codes? Do we wait, do we press buttons, do we turn knobs, which knobs do we turn, how many times do we turn which knobs? Is there a separate error code set for each & every turn of the main dial? Do we have to write down each error code and record exactly where the dial was and associate it with that exact location of the direction of the dial knob? - Once we get error codes, then what are we supposed to do?!

I have no hot water have gone through to make sure it is not plugged either hose or filter and yes hot water is turned on. When hot water is selected no water enters drum cold water works perfectly. Did your troubleshooting mode on my Amana washer and it only flashed on the green fill button was not solid green flashing green only . No other buttons came on in diagnostic mode. I feel it could be stuck value on hot water side .. if not I believe it to be water solenoid sensor!! What do u think??
