F0E2 Whirlpool Washer Error Code

DIY

Excessive suds were detected in the basket.

What does F0E2 mean?

The washer runs an automatic suds-reduction routine, so let it continue.

Common causes

The manufacturer support page points to these conditions for this code:

  • Too much detergent, which produces excess suds
  • Using the wrong type of detergent

What to check first

  1. Use only HE (High Efficiency) detergent in the recommended amount;
  2. allow the suds-reduction routine to finish.

When to call a professional

If the code returns after these checks, schedule service with a qualified technician.
