Fixing an f 02 code

Our 3 year old duet has stopped working. the problem seems to be that it won't spin. when it is time for the agitation, all i hear is a slight buzzing sound. i then get an f 02 code. i unplugged it, made sure that all of the connections were tight, but it is full of water, so i don't want to drain it. any suggestions? thanks suzanne

well, i put a bunch of towels on the floor under the washer and drained it. i pulled out the little filter thing in the thing that unscrews at the bottom of the washer and there was all kinds of junk in there, including rocks, paper clips and a chopstick trainer! i cleaned it out, put it in, plugged the machine back in and, VOILA!!!!!

hey! i fixed my own washing machine!!!! my dad is going to be SO proud!!!!!

Whirlpool duet fw95hedco washer won't spin at max speed & leaves all clothes wet. No error codes during tech diagnostic visit. Washer only 18 months old.

Possible Defective washer transmission. Do you overload the washer with heavy items like towels or blue jeans very often? That can cause early failure.

If the drain time exceeds eight minutes, the water valves are
turned off and “F/02” is flashed. Press PAUSE/CANCEL two
times to clear the display.
NOTE: After four minutes the “Sud” error will be displayed,
then four minutes later the “F/02” error code will be
displayed.

Possible Causes / Procedure
1. Check the drain hose and make sure it is not plugged
or kinked.
2. Unplug washer or disconnect power.
3. Check the electrical connections at the pump and make
sure the pump is running.
4. Check the drain pump filter for foreign objects.
