Are you seeing the F5E4 error code on your Whirlpool washer? Don’t worry, this code simply indicates a problem with the door.
Here’s how to understand and fix the issue:
What does the F5E4 error code on your Whirlpool washer mean?
The F5E4 error code (sometimes displayed as dr) signifies a “door not opened” error. This can happen in a few situations:
- You pressed “Start” with the door open.
- You ran multiple wash cycles without opening the door in between (usually 3 cycles).
- The washer isn’t properly detecting the door opening and closing.
How to fix the F5E4 error code on your Whirlpool washer:
- Check the door: Make sure the door is firmly closed before pressing “Start.”
- Open and close the door: If you forgot to open the door after a cycle, simply open and close it now. This should reset the error.
- Power reset: If the error persists, try a power reset. Turn off the washer, unplug it for a minute, then plug it back in and restart the cycle.
Important Note: While this guide focuses on resolving the F5E4 error, some troubleshooting steps for F5E1, F5E2, and F5E3 might also address door-related issues that could be causing the F5E4 error.
