My washing machine starts than it beeps and stops F1 comes on can you help with the machine

f1 is an electrical error. Try simply unplugging the machine for 10 minutes or so. If the code comes back, you should have a service person check it.

My washer beeps and says "F1", I press STOP and START. "F1" appears again and I press STOP and START and then works. WHat does this mean?

Hi,


The "F1" error code on the Whirlpool cabrio is quite common, and generally has to do with the control board. Replacing the control panel may resolve this issue. However, I believe Whirlpool is aware of the F1 issue with the Cabrio, and is fixing some machines for free. Please call 1-800-253-1301 for more details and see if you are eligible for a free repair.


Thank you !!

My kenmore oasis shows the f1 upon starting the machine and at 23 minutes and often shows th ul why is this

Mine is doing the same exact thing. Just after I press "Start", the F1 starts beeping. Then at 23 minutes into the cycle, it does it again. So frustrating! What is wrong with this machine?

F1 code coming up on my Oasis HE washer

YES! Serious problem...more annoying than anything else. Wait until your machine stops at the spin cycle and displays "F1" again. We just had a repair tech out today and received a quote of $384+ to fix/replace the circuit board. Kenmore & Sears are fully aware of this problem and have issued a recall on a model that is one digit off of the model I have yet they will not do anything about this even though it is the same problem. These machines are huge dogs!

F1 error message machine stops and just beeps until you cancel and start over

F1 usually means a communication or an electrical error.

Unpgug the machine for 1 minute and then power back up. If fault reoccurrs check all connectors.

Good luck, I hope this helps

Dacor oven beeps and shows F1 code

-F1- Alarm “System Watchdog Circuit”
The system will detect a failure in the internal watchdog element relay circuits and will activate a
cancel feature. F1 will be displayed in the time digits and will beep until the cancel button or another
function is selected. An F1 failure could be detected in cook or time of day mode. With an F1 failure
the ERC is picking up a command to supply heat without receiving an input from the membrane. The
watch dog circuit is designed to prevent this.
If the beep continues after pressing cancel check the main control (ERC)
Dacor

Code F1

Hi. this is a serious control fault that incorporates many situations. This (F) code calls for a service call. there may be a combination of control and motor faults here. if you own a multimeter(ohm), i would start by testing the control panel connections. if you are uncomfortable with disassembling this machine, i suggest making a quick service call. If you have any questions,please feel free to ask.

Please rate and god bless.
