SOURCE: whirlpool awo3561 fault showing as f06? what does

"F06" is a Motor Speed error code. It means the motor is not spinning, or you have a loss of commuincations between the Motor Control Unit (MCU), Central Control Unit (CCU) or Drive Motor. The following link explains:

http://www.fixya.com/support/r714929-f06_error_whirlpool_duet_kenmore_elite

The easiest place to start would be to verify all your connections between the Drive Motor and MCU are intact and not corroded. Then, perform resistance checks on the Drive Motor windings.

For ease of troubleshooting, UNPLUG the washer and remove the top panel by removing the three screws that hold it in place in the rear of the washer. With the screws removed, the panel will slide back, then off. Position the washer where you have full access to the rear. Remove the back panel of washer. With the top and back removed you will have full access to the CCU, MCU and Drive Motor.

If you have questions along the way, or if you require addtional assistance, please let me know. I hope you find this information helpful.

The error is an indication a motor speed problem. You will need to check the following:

- Check the wiring harness. Verify all connections between the Drive Motor, Motor Control Unit (MCU), and Central Control Unit (CCU).

NOTE: The MCU is a circuit board located in the vicinity of the Drive Motor on the bottom rear of the washer. To access the MCU, you will need to remove the back panel of the washer.

NOTE: The CCU is the main computer for the washer and is located behind the wash tub. You will need to remove the top panel to access the CCU. This is accomplished by removing the three screws in the back of the washer that hold the top in place. Once the screws are removed, the top panel will slide back, then lift off.

- Check the Drive Motor. Perform a continuity check of the Drive Motor windings. Remove the connector plug and check across pins 1 to 2, 2 to 3, and 1 to 3. All readings should be approximately 6 ohms. HINT: You can also take this reading by removing connector 2 from the MCU and measuring across pins 1, 2 and 3. If the readings are good, this will also prove the wiring and connector good.

- Check the MCU. The connectors are numbered 1 to 3 (L to R). That is, with the MCU installed, connector 1 is on the bottom, followed by 2 in the middle, and 3 on top.

Connector 1 - is the serial communications link between the MCU and CCU and has three wires. At the opposite end, this will be the 2nd connector from the rear on the left-hand side of the CCU.
Connector 2 - is the link between the MCU and the Drive Motor. Pins 1, 2, and 3 on this connector are the Drive Motor windings. Pins 4 and 5 are for the tachometer.
Connector 3 – is the primary power connector. Pins 1 to 2 should read 120VAC with the door in the locked position. Pin 3 is ground. At the opposite end, this is the 4th connector from the right on the front of the CCU.

NOTE: All the connector pins are numbered R to L.

If your continuity readings are normal for the Drive Motor and you have verified all connectors, replace the MCU.

If any of the Drive Motor windings indicate readings higher that 6 ohms, replace the Drive Motor.

The error f06 appears on display of ariston hotpoint model wdg8640

The User Manual for this model was of no help ... other than to suggest unplugging the unit which you already did ...
I could not find specific error codes for your model ... but F06 on Hotpoint washers in general have two definitions for F06:

F06 - Door lock fault
Issue: Washing Machines door cannot be opened or closed / when the door is closed the machine the programme will not start.

F06 - Program selector dial

Since you are having door issues ... then I would say the door lock is indeed the problem.
Check to make sure there is not any debris in the door lock insert, but my guess is that is not your problem.
It could be the latch on the door or the lock switch mechanism in the machine housing. Odds are it is the locking mechanism

Here is a Hotpoint You Tube on how to replace ... but it is not for your specific model

Good luck with your troubleshooting!

What is causing error codes F06 E01?

This error message means an electronic communications problem. Press pause/cancel twice to cancel the error and then disconnect the power cord from the outlet, wait few minutes, plug the power cord back in and select a new wash cycle.

If you see the same error again then you need to check the connections located between the drive motor and motor control unit.

We have fault F06 on battery charger CMP2100 Please advise

See below for specific description; but, I would guess your battery has a short. Maybe, your alternator/charging system is overcharging and is essentially boiling the battery internals. F06 The charger detected that the battery may be getting too hot (thermal runaway). The charger automatically shuts the current off if it detects the battery may be getting too hot or the battery may have a shorted cell. Have the battery checked or replaced.

Error code F06 appeared. Have since replaced door mechanism assuming that to be the issue. However problem persists, and noticed that there is a spark/arc in whatever the component part is in the lower...

If your machine is a Whirlpool or a Maytag, then F06 means the control board is not registering the motor speed it expects.
You'll need either a new motor or a new control board to fix it.
Is there an electrical burning smell, with strong sparking and lack of motor power? That would indicate a bad motor to me.

Indesit 123 FAULT F06

I had this error and engineer said the meaning of the codes on the web are wrong as they don't like to disclose their real code meanings for pure protectionism reasons. F06 on IWD7145 is a burnt out door interlock IDC error. He replaced the part number C00085194 (replacement door interlock) and microritardator part number 085194 and it works ok now.

Please could you advise my Panasonic video recorder has a F06 error code and the cassette is stuck is there anything I can do?

You appear to have a K-deck mechanism. F06 means mechanism locks during unloading. The cause of which is the load motor and the carriage alignment. Which might explain the stuck cassette. If you look around the net for "Panasonic K Mech" you should find a load of free service information on it.

What does the F06 code mean? My machine appears

The F06 code usually indicates a motor related problem. Some potential causes are loose/corroded connections of the wiring harness between the motor and the motor control unit (MCU) or between the motor control unit (MCU) and the central control unit (CCU). Sometimes this problem can be fixed by removing and reseating the electrical connections at these locations, but unfortunately I believe that your motor is shot. I say that because one of the ways to test the motor is to remove belt and turn pulley by hand. It should rotate freely. Then, run motor without belt (which you said you did). If the motor will run without the belt, but won't run under load (with the belt on), then this is a sign that the motor is bad. Really sorry for your trouble and I hope this helped. Best wishes.

Panasonic VCR has F06 code

You appear to have a K Mech model. F06 is the code for the mechanism locking after unload. The cause being something to do with the loading motor or the way the carriage is aligned.
