Washer blink F1 and will not spin water out will not empty water out of drum keeps shutting down

I just had this problem and was able to fix it. Your pump filter is probably clogged. To get to it you need to remove the front bottom panel of washer. The screws for the panel are on the very bottom of the front. You will need a T20 screwdiver bit. Once you have removed the panel unscrew the white plug at the front (water might spill out so drain what water you can from the washtub with a shopvac, the have a shallow water pan under the white drain with the shopvac running. Clean out the debris in the filter chamber. If this does not correct the problem disconnect the black rubber drain from under the tub and check for anything clogging the drain. Good luck. Johnny C.
