BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE (continued)

Problem

Possible Cause

Solutions

Water in the washer drains 

slowly or not at all, or the  

display shows:        

Drain hose is kinked, pinched, or 

clogged.

Drain discharge is more than 96 inches 

above bottom of washer.

Make sure the drain hose is free of 

clogs, kinks, etc., and is not pinched behind 

or under the washer.

Adjust or repair drain. Maximum drain 

height is 96 inches (8 ft.)

The display shows: 

The washer has detected an out of  

balance load.

If the washer detects a load that is too 

far out of balance to spin, it will dis-

play this code while it is attempting to 

rebalance the load. The washer will 

add water and try to redistribute the 

load automatically. This display is for 

your information only, and no action is 

required.

The display shows: 

If the ub rebalance (see above) is not  

successful, this error will be displayed.

The load is too small.

Heavy articles are mixed with lighter 

items.

The load is out of balance.

The automatic attempt to rebalance the load 

was not successful. The cycle has been paused 

to allow the load to be manually adjusted.

Small loads may need additional items to be 

added to allow the washer to balance the 

loads.

The load may have heavy items loaded with 

lighter items. Always try to wash articles of 

somewhat similar weight to allow the washer 

to evenly distribute the weight of the load for 

spinning.

Manually redistribute the load if articles have  

become tangled preventing the automatic  

distribution from working properly.

The display shows: 

Control error.

Unplug the washer and wait 60 seconds.  

Reconnect power and try again. If the error  

reappears, call for service.

The display shows: 

Water level is too high due to a faulty 

water valve.

Close the water faucets, unplug the wash-

er, and call for service.

The display shows: 

The water level sensor is not working  

correctly.

Close the water faucets, unplug the wash-

er, and call for service.

The display shows: 

A motor error has occurred.

Allow the washer to stand for 30 minutes 

and then restart the cycle. If the LE error 

code persists, call for service.

Clutch error.

Mechanical failure.

Unplug the washer and call for service.

7KHGLVSOD\VKRZV

 

Foreign objects, such as coins, pins, clips, 

etc., caught between the wash plate 

and the inner basket.

Turn off the washer and then press the 

Power button. Press the spin speed button 

without selecting a cycle to drain and 

spin the load.

When the spin is complete, remove the 

FORWKHVDQGWKHQÀQGDQGUHPRYHDQ\

 

objects caught in the wash plate.

Always check pockets, etc., before wash-

ing to prevent error codes or damage to 

the washer or clothing.
