I believe the F6 code is a motor failure. I suggest you call a pro to come out and look at it.

Kenmore elite smartwash quiet pak 9 he4t the washer starts filing water when the washer is turned off.

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,
This is symptomatic of a malfunctioning water control valve- not closing fully- the hot water one, if the washer is hot and cold fill, and the cold one if it is just cold fill!
Sorry but it needs replacing and a service call ;-0(
Good luck,
John C
