Whirlpool Dishwasher Error Codes
F1 (or 1 flash)
The dishwasher’s thermistor shows this code when the water temperature is either too hot (above 85°C) or too cold (below -3°C). But keep in mind that the temperature sensor could also malfunction and cause this kind of error. Consequently, if the sensor is broken, think about replacing it. Request Service
F2 (or 2 flashes)
There is a high probability that you have a leak that needs to be repaired if the system displays this error. First, you should drain the water from the dishwasher. After you check the appliance for leaks and take measures to eliminate them, the code will disappear. Request Service
F3 (or 3 flashes)
If you experience this problem, you may want to check if the machine is heating the water properly. If the water is not hot enough or the machine is taking too long to heat it, you may want to look at the following factors: The thermistor is broken, the heater is defective, and the connection between the heater and the main electronic control unit is broken (check all wiring and connections). Request Service
F4 (or 4 flashes)
When your dishwasher doesn’t drain water as it should, the code appears. Try to determine if the drain pump is obstructed or has malfunctioned to eliminate this issue. You will need to clean or replace the pump if this is the problem. Additionally, you should definitely check for any potential obstructions in the drain hoses in your machine and the drain pipes in your house drainage system. Another factor is that the dishwasher drain line is located at a level that allows water to drain out before the wash cycle is complete. By raising the drain hose to the proper level, you can solve this problem. In addition, the probability of a malfunction of the optical sensor or the primary control unit is negligible. Request Service
F5 (or 5 flashes)
This error appears when there is an issue with the drive rotor (the rotating component). You almost certainly need to get the dishwasher drive replaced. Request Service
F6 (or 6 flashes)
This error code indicates a problem with the dishwasher’s internal water flow when it appears on the display. You might need to examine other probabilities at this point. We advise you to inspect the intake valve that allows water to enter your appliance to see if it is in good functioning or clogged. Replace it with a new one if it is broken. Then, if there is any form of blockage in the inlet hose, you may want to clear it. A problem with the water supply is another possible explanation. At this point, it is best to check the tap to which the dishwasher is connected with a hose. It may be turned off. Turn it on to solve the problem. Call a specialist if none of these tips helped. Request Service
F7 (or 7 flashes)
According to this error, the flow sensor has failed. Some of the difficulties listed for error F6 may also appear, such as the following problems: Your water supply tap may be blocked, the water supply hose may be blocked or bent, the water inlet valve may be defective, etc. Request Service
F8 (or 8 flashes)
When the water level in the dishwasher is too high, this code appears. The potential causes of this malfunction may be as follows: Due to a clogged filter and problems with the water supply system, the dishwasher cannot drain the water because the water is excessively soapy and foamy (add less detergent during the next cycle). Request Service
F9 (or 9 flashes)
The water pump in the dishwasher continues to circulate inside the tub. You may be dealing with either a faulty inlet valve that cannot be closed or a short circuit in the main electronic control unit. Check both parts for problems and then replace the one that has stopped working. Request Service
F0 (or 10 flashes)
Check the sensors or their connections to the main electronic unit to determine the cause of the malfunction. Request Service
FA (or 11 flashes)
This code will appear on your dishwasher’s display if the optical water sensor is malfunctioning. The sensor may be faulty, but it indicates that the water in the dishwasher is very dirty. In such circumstances, an additional rinse cycle is started. If the problem persists, you may need to clean the optical sensor, which may be clogged with debris. If this does not help, check the sensors to make sure they are securely connected to the dishwasher control panel. Request Service
FB (or 12 flashes)
If the diverter valve in the dishwasher is faulty, the code will light up. The upper spray arm receives water flow control from this valve. Check for problems with this valve and replace it if necessary. Request Service
FC (or 13 flashes)
This sensor will alert you if the water in your area is hard so you can add additional dishwasher salt to your washing cycle to soften the water. The specific sensor may have malfunctioned and needs to be replaced, nevertheless. Request Service
