If you observe rolling or sloshing and occasional clicking on slow-speed spin in your Whirlpool Washer, it is normal. The steel balls in the balancing system are balancing the load.
Why is my Whirlpool 8TWFW5620HW leaking around the door?
If your Whirlpool Washer is leaking around the door, it may be due to hair, lint, or other debris on the inner door window preventing a proper seal with the rubber door seal. Clean the inner door window and seal. See “Cleaning the Door Seal” in the “Washer Maintenance” section.
What to do if “F9” followed by “E1” or “F09” followed by “E01” (drain pump system error) appears on my Whirlpool 8TWFW5620HW?
If your Whirlpool Washer displays “F9” followed by “E1” or “F09” followed by “E01”, this indicates a drain pump system error. Check that the drain hose is properly installed and does not extend into the standpipe farther than 4 1/2" (114 mm). Also, ensure the drain hose isn’t kinked, pinched, or blocked. Remove any clogs from the drain hose, use the drain hose form to securely attach it to the drainpipe or tub, and lower the drain hose if the end is higher than 96" (2.4 m). Finally, make sure you are using HE detergent and measuring it correctly based on load size and soil level.
What to do if “Lo” followed by “FL” or “F8” followed by “E1” or “Lo” followed by “FL” or “F08” followed by “E01” (water supply error) appears on my Whirlpool Washer?
If the “Lo” followed by “FL” or “F8” followed by “E1” or “Lo” followed by “FL” or “F08” followed by “E01” error code appears on your Whirlpool Washer, the unit will drain for 8 minutes with the door locked. Allow this drain cycle to complete to reset the error code. Once finished, touch POWER once to clear the code, then touch POWER again to restart the washer. Ensure both hot and cold water faucets are turned on so that both hoses are attached and have water flowing to the inlet valve. Also check the inlet valve screens on the washer for clogs, remove any kinks in the inlet hose, ensure auto shut-off connectors and hoses (if used) are properly installed and working, and use only the manufacturer’s recommended inlet hoses. If the code reappears, it is recommended to call for service.
What does “rL” (remove load) mean on my Whirlpool Washer?
If the display shows “rL” on your Whirlpool Washer, it means a load was detected in the drum during the Clean Washer with affresh cycle. Remove the items from the washer drum and restart the Clean Washer with affresh cycle.
