    Error Code: F0 E2 Difficulty: Easy

    Problem: Over Suds Condition

    How to Fix F0 E2 Error (Step-by-Step)

    1. Do not add more detergent. The washer has detected too many suds and is attempting to correct the issue automatically.

    5. In the future, always use detergent specifically labeled for High-Efficiency (HE) machines.
    6. Reduce the amount of HE detergent used per load, as modern detergents are highly concentrated.
    7. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

    Error Code: DOOR LOCKED Difficulty: Hard

    Problem: Indicates that the washer door is locked and cannot be opened.

    How to Fix DOOR LOCKED Error (Step-by-Step)
