My washer is blinking f11 and i do not have the manual with this machine as i bought it through rent a center

If it still works, forget about it. Owners manual may give you a good answer

if its a Kenmore model then this message says that the button control board has lost sight of the main control board , but its been my experience that this maybe able to be reset and it may never come back or it will not reset and the control board will need replaced (50/50)


cycling power may reset this

The F11 fault code indicates a serial communication error between the Machine Control board and the Motor Control board. This can be caused by several different problems.

A failed Machine Control board could be failing to provide the Motor Control board with proper voltage. If this is causing the F11 code, then the Machine Control board would need to be replaced.

The Machine Control board could also be failing to supply proper voltage to the door lock assembly. The Machine Control board would need to be replaced for this failure as well.

Voltage flows from the Machine Control board to the Door Lock Assembly. The Door Lock then energizes and closes the Door Lock MAIN Switch. Voltage flows out of the Door Lock Main Switch to the Motor Control board. So if you have power into the Door Lock Assembly but not out of the Main Door Lock Switch, it will give you an F11. If so, you will need to replace the Door Lock Assembly.

You could have a bad Motor Control board that is causing this failure. A bad wiring connection between the Motor Control board and the Machine Control board could also cause this fault code. A bad wiring connection between the Motor Control board and the drive motor is also a possible failure. A failed drive motor could also cause the F11.

With so many possible causes for this failure, I recommend calling a service technician to diagnose and repair the problem in your washer. If you are able to unplug the washer and check the wiring connections, you may be able to find a loose wire harness connection that is causing the problem. Much of the diagnosis for the potential problems noted above requires live voltage checks. I do not recommend conducting these types of checks yourself. Unless you want to take a chance and replace the Machine Control board and the Door Lock Assembly,

Call rent a center and ask them, tell them the serial number and model number and who you bought it from, they can tell you if the warranty is available on it

Hello there and thank you for choosing fixya
F11 is:
Serial Communication Error
Communication between the Central Control Unit (CCU) and the Motor Control Unit (MCU) cannot be sent correctly.

Check for:
Check Wire Harness connectors to the MCU, the motor, and Central Control Unit (CCU)
Check the Drive system for any worn or failed components
Check MCU
Check CCU
Check Motor
Check Wire Harness

If all the connections look fine , then its possible the CCU is reading wrong and will need to be changed

Hi,

To open the door you need to remove the panel below the door (three screws at bottom of machine) then reach up by the door lock and there will be a plastic tab hanging down, that will be the manual release for the door, just pull it down. Wile you're in there see if the technicians packet is taped to the inside wall of the washer, it helps to explain the workings of your machine. If the display is blinking, is it blinking a code? like F11 or FdL? Knowing the code will help in troubleshooting the problem. Good luck.

E10 THERES A JAM SOME WHERE MAKE SURE THE BELT IS OK ON WASHER .

I found the instructions!

remove bottom panel on washer right side of washer behind panel tech manual with codes

random issues with bad solder joints on the boards ,
open the top of unit , reseat all the connectors on the control unit.
start washer ,
, push up gently on the center black wired connectors . system should start and run fine as long as you hold it up. normal issue is that the solder connections to the relays need to be resoldered due to crack around the leads.causing random issues
