This error code indicates that the door is not locking.
Is the washer door firmly shut?
The door must be completely closed for the washer to operate. The door may look as if it's closed, but it may not be latched. Open the door and firmly close it.
Were you washing a large load?
Before you close the washer door, check for laundry items sticking out beyond the door opening. Leave enough space in the washer to allow the clothes to freely tumble. Reduce your load size if needed.

Kenmore elite he3t washer door will not open, always showing as f22 error code

it is your safety latch on your door. On the front load washer it will lock the door and if there is a problem with the latch it will keep it closed to prevent injury. If you have cloths in there try unplugging for about fifteen minutes or so and then plug it back in.

F 22 front door locked and door won't open.

hi there,

the F22 stands for the CCU/Touchpad error. in other words, the keypad has lost connection with the control board behind it.

this is what you do:

unplug the washer
take off the console
check the connection between the touch pad and the CCU boad
make sure that nothing looks corroded or burnt
make sure that nothing is pinched or bent
unplug and replug wiring harness and connections form keypad to the CCU board

let me know if it this works.
