Fault F70 Getting Fault F70. Dried out but still getting. Which part could be broken?

Obviously the machine believes the drain cycle is not complete. It is running the drain pump until the level it "sees" is all the way down. Somehow you or your technician will need to get inside the beautiful stainless panels to adjust, clean or replace the drain level sensor...

check for obstructions in the pump, the hose and the drain.

F70 means it is an Central Control Unit(CCU) communication failure.

Hi.

Please read the article I wrote on fault codes F70 and F71. The problem is the same with all Duet models:

F70 and F71 are two logic board error codes that point at a communication error between the main log...

Hi


Thanks for using FixYa. Error F70 is Central Control unit Heartbeat failure. If a Central Control Unit Heartbeat Failure is displayed, no communication is detected from the Central Control Unit to the User Interface. To resolve this issue you’ll have to:

1. Check for continuity of the User Interface harness.
2. Check wire harness connections to the User Interface and the Central Control Unit.
3. Replace User Interface if drum is rotating.
4. Replace Central Control Unit if drum is not moving


Please do rate the solution if the issue is resolved or post a comment for further assistance.


Thanks

Hi.

I think that by this time you already fixed the problem. The codes indicate usually a fault that is either CCU or MCU.

how old is the unit?
if it is less than one year it is under warranty and you can get it serviced for free call kenmore,
the problem is the main controller.

Hi,

Yes. F70 is a flood in the base of the unit which activates the float switch and constantly activates the drain pump until the water has gone. Isolate the unit at the power switch and remove the bottom panel under the door panel. Dry up the water as best possible with a towel. You will see the float at the front. Run the unit again and check for any water leaks. You may just have over sudded the unit with too much detergent. Only use 2 teaspoons of powder. To start with while testing don't use any detergent. Good luck

Hope this helps.
