Whirlpool Duet GHW9150P Front Load Washer Logo
Anonymous Posted on Feb 23, 2011

My ghwp150pwo whirlpool duet washer has just recently started to make surging sounds while draining. I bought it brand new in March of 2005 The water seems to all drain out, clothes seem to be the same degree of dampness as always.. its just this odd surging sound that isnt normal. It has the original drain hose on it. Is there a filter to clean out? Manual does not mention one.

Try and put some Drano down the drain standpipe..it maybe starting to clog.

  • Anonymous Feb 23, 2011

    Well I can do the Drano down the standpipe, but the surging is from the washer, you see and hear it in the hose that is going from the washer to the drain standpipe. Im sorry if I was not
    clear enough. By "see" it I mean you see the hose **** a bit
    as it surges if that makes any sense.. that is why I thought perhaps it was something wrong with the hose, maybe a filter we should clean out ect...

I have a whirlpool duet washer (2008). The SUD light came on and i have never seen this before. what is wrong?

Are you using a good brand of HE detergent? Is the water draining. If draining. Start the washer. Empty and no detergent. After a few minutes, are suds in the washer? If so cancel and drain. Do again. If so cancel and drain. Add 1/4 cup of cooking oil. Start unit. Let oil rid unit of built up soap. Detergent (overuse) can build up in unit and on clothes. If this does not help you. Give more information,( noises, wet clothes) and I will try to solve your problem.

This may or may not be helpful but please see the following Whirlpool installation and service manual for the Duet Sport washer.

It has a number of sections on accessing components and you may be able to determine how to take the front off.

Whirlpool duet washer F21 error code. Just bought

"F21" is a Long Drain error. The following link explains how to torubleshoot:

http://www.fixya.com/support/r1484065-f21_error_code_whirlpool_duet_kenmore

What this usually means is that you have something clogged in the drain pump and it needs to be cleaned out. In the majority of the cases, this corrects the problem. However, if you JUST purchased this washer, and it is brand new (not used), I would recommend you use your manufacturer warranty (good for the 1st year in most cases) to avoid the risk of voiding it. The conditions of some warranties, prohibit the consumer from opening the appliance and attempting any repairs. Read the find print just to be sure.

If you have any questions, please let me know. I hope this helps you.

Whirlpool duet frontload washer not draining on automatic cycle

Try unplugging for 10 min. This will reboot the system and clear the curcuit of all power. Replug the washer and select spin to drain. Selecting too many cycles in a short period of time can confuse the little brain in the curcuit just like a power surge does after a storm. Clear the brain and start from scratch.

Whirlpool Duet Washer won't spin

Sounds like the whirling noise is the pump, pumping. Does it drain at all? Check the drive belt and make sure that it is not broken. This system uses a drive belt with a clutch system to agitate back and forth. The clutch system could be bad as well.

This might not be a cheap fix, these are the main components of the system
