The suds code is telling you that you're using to much detergent,you should be using H.E. detergent and like 1/4 cup full of it.if you use more than that it can oversuds and this is the number one cause of damaging the spider gear.if the spider gear goes you'll be in the market for a new washer,you'll know if it goes when in spin the machine will bang loudly,you can run the washer with just water,let it run for a bit and drain it to get the extra suds out,while it's agitating look in the machine most likely you'll see the detergent in the water.

What does error F35 mean?

It helps to have FULL make and model in such questions, but here are a few ideas

The F35 error code indicates an analog pressure sensor error. The analog pressure sensor is the component that detects water level in the washer tub. This error can usually be cleared but it will occur again if the main control board still detects a problem with the signal from the analog pressure sensor.

What does 5ud mean 10 minutes from finishing 5 Ud displayed can't open door?

Hello Maureen Turner,

If your model number came thru with your question... I could have looked it up AGAIN to see if

By far the biggest cause of the "suds" alarm...
is "SOME ONE" is using other than "HE" washing
agents in your HE machine...

Stop it... Read your owners manual.

This can cause serious and expensive repairs.

I HAVE A WHIRLPOOL DUET STEAM MODEL WFW 9600 TW01. I GET A FLASHING 'SUD' AND THEN CODE E 51. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS? WHAT PART NUMBER DO I NEED? ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED

Pull out your washer and look on the back for a plastic sleeve with paper in it. Often these papers are materials for the repair person. If you are lucky they are what you need to solve the e51 mystery.

I duplicated his actions and it cleared up my SUD/F35 error. I think running the diagnostic test multiple times flushes the sensors/sensing lines to eliminate the problem.

I HAVE A WHIRLPOOL DUET STEAM MODEL WFW 9600 TAOO. NO WASH CYCLES WILL START. I GET A FLASHING 'SUD' AND THEN CODE F 35. DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS? WHAT PART NUMBER DO I NEED? WHERE CAN I FIND IT?...

SUD, usually caused by using the wrong type of soap. Your soap should have the letters "HE" on front of box/bottle. SUD can also be a bad drain pump, question is, does it still have water showing in tub?

F35, is a pressure sensor # W10156252, good luck finding it, as Whirlpool has problem keeping these things in stock. They list price at $112.82. Only takes about 20 minutes to change. Research sears.com, select PARTS Direct, enter model number, click on cabinet parts, find analog pressuer switch, see if they have in stock. Or, research the net for someone that does.

Take top of washer lid off, pressure switch is located on top right rear side wall of machine.

Good luck.

Error code

Our new Whirlpool Duet had the same problem after only three months of use. We contacted Whirlpool since the washer is still under warranty. The issue is a "bad pressure switch". The part number is W10156252. Service company replaced the part yesterday, and the washer is working like normal. Whirlpool nor the service company had any explanation why the part would go bad in such a short time. No charge since the washer is under warranty.

WARNING - There must be a shortageWe were initially told that the part was backordered for 2 to 3 weeks. We even tried to obtain the part through other vendors and got the same time frame. Furious with the potential of being without a brand new washer for 3 weeks, we spent many hours on the phone with Whirlpool trying to expedite the part. After some strong encouragement and moving the issue up the chain of customer service, Whirlpool agreed to pull a part from the factory inventory where the washers are built. The only problem is that nobody could tell us when, or if, the new part would be shipped. Suddenly, the part just arrived by FedEx at our house. In all, our washer was inoperable for 1 week. Be persistent. They will tell you over and over there is nothing they can do.

If you negotiate well, Whirlpool will extend your factory warranty for an additional year.
