Whirlpool WTW5000DW0 Washing Machine How to check codes F7E1 Error Code.

[@jordanshilander7402]

My whirlpool had this code F7E1 and I replaced the shift actuator but it still wasn't spinning. I then replaced the capacitor and now it works fine. Thanks for the video!

[@motoracerx1418]

So thanks to this video, i was able to get the fault code on my whirlpool WTW5000DW1 washer. It was the F5E3 code- lid lock. The washer was cutting in and out of each cycle...You could hear the lid lock switch clicking while sensing, washing, etc and the lid lock light wouldn't stay on. My fix was taking some electrical contact cleaner and generously spraying the lid lock switch. The electrical contacts must have had some dirt/muck build up. Working perfect again now. Washer is 5 yrs old. First issue i've had with it and am very happy with the machine. Thanks a ton FreeInDeed!!!

[@curtclemans7206]

Thank god I found you I'm sitting here now did everything you said so far so good I'll never buy another washer like this again but it makes a strang noise washing this sucks

[@elizabelle1967]

I had an F8E1 and was able to read the problem on your other video where you show the manual page by page. So in my situation, the rinse water fill was taking too long and thus the cycle would never complete, omitting the spin and always returning to wash. I disconnected all pipes from the machine and saw there was sand clogging the filter on my incoming cold water. I vacuumed the filter as well as the inside of all the pipes (drain too) to get any dirt and debris out. Then, I reopened the valves and ran water long enough into a bucket to make sure there was no air inside the pipes. I reconnected all three pipes and it seems to have worked. The manual says that the error code will erase after 10 washes if the problem doesn't reoccur. Thanks so much, your vids helped me the most.

[@elizabelle1967]

@Maddog worker The filter is behind on your machine, where you fix your water pipes. It filters the incoming water (cold or hot). It is small, the size of a dime.

[@golfgod11]

I wish I would have seen this video before replacing my washer plate and hub only to find out it was the Shift Actuator. Had no idea these threw out error codes and how easy it is to read them yourself. Great video

[@Dooguy]

could u tell me what your machine was doing or not doing before you realized it was the shift actuator?

[@golfgod11]

@@Dooguy It wasn't agitating. I figured it was the hub or plate that was stripped but it wasn't. When i tipped the machine over and manually moved the actuator it was easy to tell that was the issue.

This washing machine has been one of the worst home purchases we have made! It's a pain in the rear, and seems to never really work correctly!

[@tommyboyreckids]

I agree my washer will not go to rinse on its own but will rinse when switch it to rinse and when i use the code that was given here, and i don't get any bad codes what a pain

[@tommyboyreckids]

@Maddog worker yes the problem was the water pressure in the home when i use the water hose from out side machine work fine

[@mysTAUry]

This brand is trash! This is the 4th video I have watched in an attempt to figure out what was wrong with my machine. All videos and the people in the comments are saying the same thing. STUCK ON SENSING!

[@freeindeed9508]

I'm not a technician but this may help a little. If your (Green Sensing) light is on during startup and the (Red Locked) light doesn't turn on the problem could be a faulty Lid Lock switch. I wish I could help more, have a nice day.

[@shantalpatterson6717]

I have a expert system with auto level, at the end of tge cycle all the lights runs across instead of just turning off is that normal? Also when its filling water it makes a clicking sound maybe ever 15-20 seconds

[@dionstephen88]

Merry Christmas did what you showed first code all lights flashing fill,wash,rinse,spin,done.second code fill rinse spin done and rise and spin.3 code full rinse spin done and rinse and done.got any advice please and thank you.opps the all lights flashing in the fisrt one is i believe thats just telling you its in error mode

Ok was there a part two to this showing how to put the code back in . Sometimes when doing a post video 📹 with your phone 📱 then up load

[@crazeefingas33]

shane dyches By now you have probably taken care of your problem, but just in case you want an actual manual: when you lift your lid there is a plastic bag taped at the front end. You may have to move the around to get it out.

[@sixpackbinky]

My brand new one has a clunking noise when it fills with water then clunks again whil washing

[@juniormint3136]

99% of the time its user error as always. Its not like an old style machine, its critical you have proper water pressure and temperature, select the proper cycle, level it well. We're never gonna have the durable beasts of yesterday that took a beating and came back for more.

[@aaronsg71]

I can’t get my sensing light or wash light to come on! It’s stuck on rinse and lock! Any help???? Thx

[@freeindeed9508]

I have not ran into that one yet on my machine, so I have no straight forward answer for you. Are you able to cancel the process and check for codes? If you visit my channel, there are some other videos on the WTW5000DW0 machine that may help out. Where I found my Service Manual, Automatic Test Mode, Calibration, Checking For Codes. They are videos I made when I ran into my F7E1 error code and had to replace my HUB. Good luck on your journey.

[@juans6639]

Mine sounds like a Semi shifting gears without the use of the clutch. Been working fine for several years and has made those noises since the first day. I feel it will come apart any day.

[@adolfosanchez7434]

I bought mi machine yesterday and I returned to the store it’s the most worst machine that I never saw in my life

[@cheyenneroth6707]

Sadly ur English is way worse

[@Admin-ie9hp]

So my error codes are all the green lights are blinking. I cannot find any list on what this could be. Basically what is happening with the washer it's identical to this one I press start the lock light flashes and doesn't allow it to engage in wash if I press the start button three times real fast it says sensing but nothing happens after that it fills for a split second and says sensing still and doesn't do anything else. I have no idea what this could be

[@freeindeed9508]

I am not seeing any codes in my manual where all the green lights are flashing. The good news is you got all the green lights to flash while starting the process. It could be possible you skipped some of the last steps to retrieve your codes. Or your machine may be a different model, in which case I'm not sure if the codes are the same. Here is a link from my KZbin channel that has the manual one page at a time you may be able to pause on the pages you need for help. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lX_CinaJg9-cjsU Or you can visit my channel and find the video. Hopefully this helps and good luck with your project.

[@RobertArnold-s4k]

I have tried everything but my whirlpool will not go into calibration mode please help

[@Dolce916]

Thank you so much for this video! God bless. But I cannot for the life of me see the error codes even after taking screen shots and zooming in on both of your videos of technician guide. My washer has sensing, washer and done error code. Do I just do what you did on the video? Thanks so much in advance!

[@freeindeed9508]

You're welcome! Now looking at my video it is hard for me to see also, might have to redo that one. So it appears that you have (Sensing + Washer) on the first flash of lights, then (Done) on the second flash. If that is correct it appears to be an (F8E1 - No Fill, Long Fill) error code. Hope this helps, God Bless

[@donaldlyons1759]

Only my sensing light is blinking whats that mean

[@freeindeed9508]

I honestly am not sure. If the lights work during a wash cycle, it may be the steps or timing of how you turn the dial, while you are trying to checking codes. Even with the manual in front of me, It took a few try's to get the right timing. It may help to have your manual in hand. Here is a video link to help find your service manual.

[@freeindeed9508]

Try pressing the start/pause button down for 3 or more seconds and see if that does anything. When all else fails, I unplug my machine for five minutes, then plug it back in to give it a fresh start. Hopefully that works to get the lid unlocked.

[@millennialcaribbeanmom]

I’m at the point of jus figuring out if there’s a code! New springs & can’t get spin or wash! Hear the motor come on & stop! Belts on no Tension, capacitor good , actuator good! Fills with water & basically nothing else! Drains back out! Appliance guy told me replace LID lock! SAME RESULTS! It’s not the lid lock!!!

[@ArandaArandaAranda]

I just bought this washing machine no more than 2 weeks ago and it's giving me problems I bought this machine to the fact that Whirlpool is recognized brand of the best washing machines but hard to say they have become the worst machine and not use a friendly they are horrible to use they don't allow you to control the water level after you have set already in medium or small if you want to change it to large amount and it stops spinning I just lost about six load of water back to back just now this is so horrible it's a Whirlpool 19 kg model number 7MWTW1904MD1horrible

[@travisjay100]

I don't have errors, but this washer absolutely SUCKS!!! How can I bypass the lid lock without having some switch with wires hanging out of the front? I just do not want it to lock! I've had to drain the damn thing and start over, so many times with this rediculous feature! Absolutely hate this washer and any other like it!!!

[@faustopg]

Why on earth did I buy this machine! Bought it from a friend who sold it to me at half price. She claims she only used it once. If I had the money I'd through it out and buy a different one.

I feel the same way at times. After replacing my Basket Hub, I got another year of clothes washed so far. Thankfully the new Basket Hub was under $20, the time and frustration was the difficult part. Thank you for watching. Have a good day.

[@margiehutchins9255]

the progress lights won't come on

[@freeindeed9508]

Sometimes it takes practice to get the right timing on turning the dial. After you get the right timing, hopefully the lights will start to flash, for the Diagnostic Test Mode. Best of luck to you.
