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

  1. Pause the current wash cycle if the machine has not already stopped automatically.
  2. Do not add any more water or detergent. Allow the washer to sit for 30-60 minutes to allow the suds to break down on their own.
  3. After the waiting period, select a ‘Rinse & Spin’ or ‘Drain & Spin’ cycle to clear out the excess foam.
  4. Once the cycle is complete and the suds are gone, you can restart your laundry.
  5. To prevent this in the future, ensure you are using a High-Efficiency (HE) detergent, which is specifically designed for low-water washing machines.
  6. Measure your detergent carefully according to the manufacturer’s instructions for your load size and water hardness. Overdosing is the primary cause of excess suds.
  7. Consider using less detergent for smaller or lightly soiled loads.
  8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
