rL

The rL error code on a Kenmore washer typically indicates that the washer detected a load in the drum during the Clean Washer cycle. Since Kenmore washers are manufactured by Whirlpool, the meaning of the rL code aligns with Whirlpool's system. 

Here's a breakdown of what the rL error signifies

  • Clean Washer Cycle Issue - The Clean Washer cycle is designed to clean the washer itself, typically using little or no water and some tumbling action. The rL error occurs because this cycle requires an empty drum for proper cleaning. If clothes or objects are left inside during the Clean Washer cycle, the washer detects them and triggers the rL error code.

Resolving the rL Error

  1. Check the Washer Drum - Open the washer door and carefully look around the drum for any clothes, towels, or objects that might have been accidentally left inside. Remove any items you find.
  2. Restart the Clean Washer Cycle - Once you've removed any objects from the drum, close the door and restart the Clean Washer cycle. The washer should now be able to complete the cleaning cycle without encountering the rL error.

Important Safety Note - Before attempting any troubleshooting steps, unplug the washer from the outlet to avoid electrical hazards.
