Error Code: F60 Difficulty: Hard

Problem: Flow sensor or pressure sensor error.

How to Fix F60 Error (Step-by-Step)

1. Disconnect the washer from power and water sources. Turn off the water supply valves and unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
2. Remove the top panel of the washer to access the internal components. This is typically held in place by screws at the back.
3. Locate the water inlet valve at the back of the machine where the water hoses connect. Disconnect the wire harnesses and hoses, then remove the screws holding it in place and replace it with the new valve.
4. The pressure sensor is usually connected to the control board via a small tube. Inspect the tube for any blockages or damage and clear or replace it as necessary.
5. To replace the control board, carefully label and disconnect all wire harnesses connected to it. Remove the mounting screws and gently lift the old board out.
6. Install the new control board, ensuring all wire harnesses are securely reconnected to their correct terminals. Re-secure the top panel.
7. Reconnect the water hoses and power cord. Turn the water supply on and run a test cycle to ensure the error is cleared.
8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

Error Code: FOAM DETECTION SYMBOL Difficulty: Easy

Problem: Too much foam has been detected during the wash cycle.

How to Fix FOAM DETECTION SYMBOL Error (Step-by-Step)

1. Pause the current wash cycle. If the machine will not pause, turn it off.
2. Wait for 15-20 minutes to allow the foam to dissipate on its own.
3. Once the foam has reduced, select a ‘Rinse’ or ‘Spin’ cycle and run it without adding any more detergent. This will help to flush out the excess suds.
4. If there is still a lot of foam, you may need to run an additional rinse cycle.
5. To prevent this in the future, reduce the amount of detergent you are using, especially for smaller or lightly soiled loads.
6. Ensure you are using a high-efficiency (HE) detergent, as these are formulated to produce fewer suds.
7. If you have soft water, you will need to use significantly less detergent than the manufacturer’s recommendation.
8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
