Repairing the F02 error code can usually be done without ordering parts. Tools needed to repair your whirlpool Duet F02 error code are towels and a quarter inch socket.
Tip the washer back at a 45 degree angle. On the bottom panel there are three or four
screws, with the screws removed the panel will slide down and off. With the lower access panel now removed you will have access to the washers
drain pump clean out.
With the water already bailed from the washer you can twist the filter head counter-clockwise to remove. Twisting the filter head counter-clockwise will loosen filter so it can be pulled out.
With the filter out clean and install it back into washer.
Run a quick cycle to ensure the washer is back up and running and the F02 error has disappeared. If the error comes back, it may require you to clean the drain pump filter again.
If you require a new drain pump motor, you can purchase the part from the link below.

I am taking the pump apart in the morning. Yeah. I will let you know what I find. I can move the propeller, but it is tight and feels rough. Not good.
There was a rubberband stuck in around the base of the propeller. I wiggled the propeller back and forth and pulled it out piece by piece. It is working fine again.
A thin rubberband was lodged around the base of the propellar. The pump needed a good cleaning too. It is running fine again. Glad I didn' spend $80 on a new one!
