How to Fix F0 E2 Error Code on Kenmore Washer

The error code F0 E2 on your Kenmore washer signifies an oversudsing issue. This means the washer has detected an excessive amount of suds during the wash cycle. Excessive suds can prevent the washer from cleaning clothes effectively and can also lead to overflow during the spin cycle.

Here's a breakdown of the reasons why this error might occur and how to troubleshoot it -

Possible Causes of F0 E2 Error

  • Improper detergent usage - Using too much detergent, especially high-efficiency (HE) detergent in a non-HE washer, can lead to excessive sudsing.
  • Wrong type of detergent - Using regular detergent in a high-efficiency (HE) washer can create a lot of suds. Always use HE detergent formulated for automatic washers.
  • Clogged drain pump or filter - A clogged drain pump or filter can prevent sudsy water from draining out properly during the wash cycle, contributing to overflow and triggering the F0 E2 error.

How to Fix CL Error Code on Kenmore Washer

The meaning of the CL error code on a Kenmore washer depends on the washer model. There are two main possibilities -

  1. Control Lock - In many newer Kenmore washer models, the CL error code signifies a control lock activation. This means the control panel has been intentionally disabled, likely to prevent accidental setting changes during the wash cycle or by children.
  2. Clean Washer Reminder (Less Likely) - In some older Kenmore washer models, particularly washers in the 110 series, the CL error code might indicate a clean washer reminder. This is a prompt to run a cleaning cycle to remove detergent buildup and potential odors from the washer tub.

Here's how to determine which meaning applies to your washer

  • Consult your user manual - The most accurate way to determine the meaning of the CL error code for your specific Kenmore washer model is to refer to the user manual. It will explain what the code signifies and how to deactivate the control lock or run a cleaning cycle (if applicable).
  • Look for model number - If you don't have the user manual readily available, locate the model number of your Kenmore washer. This is usually a sticker or label on the back of the washer or behind the washer door. You can then search online for troubleshooting resources specific to your model number and the CL error code.

How to Fix EE Error Code on Kenmore Washer

The error code EE on a Kenmore washer signifies an issue with the EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) on the main control board. The EEPROM essentially stores the washer's program settings and operating instructions. Here's a breakdown of what the EE error code means and how to troubleshoot it -

What is EEPROM and Why Does It Cause Errors?

The EEPROM is a non-volatile memory chip that retains information even when the washer is turned off. It holds crucial data for the washer's control board to function properly, including wash cycle settings, spin speeds, and other operational parameters.

If the EEPROM becomes corrupted or damaged, the control board might not be able to access or process the stored information correctly, leading to malfunctions and the EE error code.

Possible Causes of EE Error

  • Corrupted EEPROM - This is the most common reason for the EE error. Over time, due to various factors like voltage fluctuations or internal glitches, the data stored on the EEPROM can become corrupted.
  • Faulty control board - In some cases, the error might indicate a malfunction with the main control board itself, not just the EEPROM.

How to Fix dE2 Error Code on Kenmore Washer

The error code dE2 on a Kenmore washer indicates a door lock error, similar to dE and dE1. However, dE2 specifically points towards a scenario where the door is closed, but the washer isn't detecting it as securely locked.

Here's a breakdown of the dE2 error and how to troubleshoot it

Possible Causes of dE2 Error

  • Faulty door lock mechanism - If the lock itself is malfunctioning, it might not be able to fully engage or signal a secure closure even when the door is shut.
  • Misalignment of door or lock - Over time, the door or the lock mechanism might become misaligned, preventing a proper lock even when the door is closed.
  • Worn door seal - A damaged or worn door seal might not create a proper seal with the washer body, which can interfere with the lock mechanism's ability to detect a secure closure.
  • Electrical connection issues - Loose or damaged electrical connections between the door lock and the control board might disrupt communication, even if the lock is physically engaged.
