Tip & How-To about Washing Machines

Whirlpool duet sport

Problem: you have stopped cycle before it is done and now the unit will not start. You can press power on and select cycle but when you hit start unit powers down.

Solution: power unit on, select a cycle hit start...before the unit powers down hit pause cancel and you turn the washer off before it can turn itself off. The unit should return back to normal. This usually solves your problem without having to replace the control board.

Duet whirpool washing machine stop and DLF sign appear

Hi,
Initially unplug the washing machine.While the washer remains unplugged, press and hold the [Start/Pause] button on the front panel for five seconds.
Plug the unit back in, and run a rinse and spin cycle to test if the DL code is cleared.

If you still face the problem then follow the procedure:

Unplug the washer and allow the unit to sit for 30 minutes to give the suds time to dissolve.

Plug the washer back in and press [Power] to turn on the washer.

Do not choose a washing cycle. Press the [Spin Speed] key until "No Spin" is selected.

Press [Start/Pause] to begin a drain only cycle.

After the drain only cycle has completed, remove the clothing items from the machine. Turn the power back on and select [Rinse and Spin] and then press [Start/Pause].
This will remove excess soap suds and light residue from the drum.

Repeat this step until no visible suds are in the drum of the washer.


Hope this helps.
