Frigidaire Front Loading Washing Machine

After my clothes have completed the wash cycle, I find I have black marks on some of the clothes.  It looks like they were washed with a black felt tip pen.  Have you heard of this situation and do you have a solution?

Hi, I moved my Frigidaire Front Loading Washer MOdel # LTF2940FE1 to my new laundry room. It was working before and now it's giving me a reading of ddo. Upon doing a little research I found out how to get the error code number and it is E14, which is a reed switch, but I haven't a clue what that is. Can you tell me and if it will be difficult to replace myself. I'm pretty handy with tools, my husband recently had a stroke and isn't able to do things like this yet. Help please?!

Frigidaire heavy duty super capacity 2 speed combonation sometimes goes through cycle fine but mostly continuously fills and drains at start S.N. XE32103237 - FEZ831CAS2

All front loading washers will fill and drain multiple times before it finishes. Unlike a top loader, a front loading washer will take longer to run because there is no agitator and will fill with water and drain multiple times. A front loader is more energy efficient than a Traditional top loading washing machine. A washer dryer combo will take hours to complete a cycle.

My Frigidaire FTF530FS Front Load Washer appears to be leaking oil and it is getting on my clothes

Hello Loree Grudem - This can be the result of the shaft bearing and seal. They may have become worn and the transmission oil is creeping up to get in your water. Once this happens, it gets on your clothes to cause staining. Or possibly you have a buildup of fabric softener that comes loose and puts a greasy like substance in your water and on your clothing. Once you put your clothes in the dryer and the old fabric softener melts you will see these spots. I suggest contacting a professional to move forward accurately.

Is there any kind of recall on a Maytay front loading washer, model #MAH6500AWW? I am having problems with mildew in the rubber part and terrible smelling water in the bottom.

The cleaning process for your Maytag Neptune front-loading washer, for example, requires some time and patience. Over time, your washing machine will need to be cleaned. It can develop offensive odors through multiple wash cycles. This makes the washing machine less effective at cleaning the clothes you put into it. Maytag offers some sound advice for cleaning your front-loading washing machine.
  • Pour 2/3 cup of liquid chlorine bleach into the bleach compartment of the dispenser drawer of your Maytag Neptune front-loading washer.

  • 2

    Run your Maytag Neptune front-loading washer on the "Clean Washer" setting. Press "Start" to start the cycle.

  • 3

    Leave the door open once the cycle is complete to allow the inside of your Maytag Neptune front-loading washer to ventilate and air dry.

  • 4

    Look closely at the gray seal of the Maytag Neptune front-loading washer's door opening. This seal can have a buildup of debris or detergent residue.

  • 5

    Spray the seal with an all-purpose appliance cleaner and scrub away any debris or residue with a cloth or scrubbing pad. Dry with a clean cloth.

  • 6

    Remove the soap dispenser drawer. Press the release lever and lift it out to clean.

  • 7

    Take out the inserts and rinse them and the drawer thoroughly.

  • 8

    Wash with a mild soap and cloth to remove any residue. Dry thoroughly before replacing.


  • ALWAYS LEAVE THE DOOR OPEN WHEN NOT IN USE! This prevents the mold and mildew from forming once you get it cleaned.

    My frigidaire 417 front loading washer drum bangs around violently especially during "spin" cycle. What can I do to remedy problem?

    You never want to over load your machine, when you do some of the heavier clothes seem to go to one side of the machine. When the spin cycle starts and it's making that loud sound, open it up, wait for the spin to come to a complete stop, then make sure clothes are evenly around. Then put the lid back down it should be fine then. If it's not, then repeat above steps. I hope this helps. Thank You for using FixYa.

    CLOTHES ARE VERY WET AT THE END OF THE CYCLE

    The pump is probably obstructed by an object. Typicial it will be a coin. You will need to gain access to the pump, which should be located on the bottom front to the machine. Remove the hoses to the pump.(Important..have a bowl or pan to catch the water that will come out of the hoses)
    Turn the machine on a cycle that will turn the pump on. This will let you know if the pump is working correctly. If something is in the pump,remove the pump and remove any obstructions. Then just reverse the process to reassemble your machine. If the pump is not working thaen you will need to replace it.
