My Duet goes starts and after awhile it flashes F-09 and water is in the tub and the door is locked (which is good I guess). Is this a flow problem and if so, how do I replace it?

Pressure Switch Error
The Duet washer uses a pressure sensing switch to detect the water level in the wash tub. The sensor uses a small tube that is attached to the outer tub. The pressure switch is very rare to fail so the first thing to check is that the hose is not pinched closed and doesn't have any holes in it.
This might work try unplugging it for about 45 -60 seconds and see if it clears the problem. The red light is some type of warning and I would be safe in saying it is a safety device gone bad. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Yes that is how that style washer works since its very possible if opening the door when water is in the tub that it would spill out when opening the door when water in the tub..all front loaders work ina similar manner where when water is in the tub the door wont unlock
The F21 error code means the pump has taken longer to drain the water than usually time it takes to drain. Here is what you check to see if something is in the drain pump filter restricting the water flow into the pump. I know i have the Whirrpool Duet washer pictured . Whirlpool makes that washer so other that the name "duet" everything is the same The most prominent cause of your DUET washer not opening after the cycle is done and door remains locked is going to be a blockage in the drain pump. Here is what to check in the pictures below.Start by unscrewing that just a little and use towel/tupperware tubs and catch the water that will come out. Once all the water is out remove completly and check for a blockage
Hello, HF Code means No water detected entering machine or Pressure switch trip
not detected. If after 30 seconds the control does not detect water
entering machine and then valves will be turned off and the error code will be
displayed. Or If the control has turned the water valves on and
after 8 minutes the flow meter has detected 10.5 gallons of water passing
through it, but has not detected the pressure switch trip, the valves will be
turned off and the error code will flash. Press PAUSE/CANCEL twice to
clear the display. If there is no water in the unit: 1. Make sure that
both valves at the water source(s) are turned on all the way. 2. Check for
plugged or kinked inlet hoses or plugged screens in the inlet valves 3.
Verify inlet valve operation If there is water in the unit: 1. Verify
Drain pump operation 2. Pressure Switch Hose is in good condition and
properly connected to Tub and Pressure switch Verify there is not a siphon
problem Verify wire harness connections to:Inlet Valves, Pressure Switch,
Drain Pump, Flow Meter, and Central Control Unit (CCU) Check all hoses for
possible leaks Verify pressure switch operation Verify flow meter
operation Verify CCU operation. Thanks
no water error code. first check the the water is on and the hose screen is clean.
