FAULT CODE DISPLAY MODE (Pgs 6–7)
To access fault/error codes, perform steps 1 and 2 of Activating
the Service Diagnostic Test Modes. Turn the cycle selector knob
until the status LEDs correspond as follows:
 "Done" LED On
Sensing Soak/

Press the START button to enter Fault Code Display Mode.
The status LEDs flash on and off.

 Toggle cycle selector knob to view fault codes in the order
of most recent to oldest. (Refer to Fault/Error Code charts
on pages 6 & 7.)
NOTE: A fault/error code will be removed from memory
if it does not reoccur after 10 consecutive wash cycles.
2. To clear fault codes:
 Toggle cycle selector knob until the status LEDs
flash ON and OFF (see figure 2, page 2).
 Press and hold the START button for 3 seconds to clear

Fault/Error Code Display Method
Fault/error codes are displayed by alternating the state of
the Status LEDs in one second intervals. All fault/error codes
have an F# and an E#. The F# indicates the suspect System/
Category and the E# indicates the suspect Component system.
If the Sensing Load LED is ON, the Fault Number is represented;
if OFF, the Error Number is represented (see example below).
The remaining LEDs (Soak/Wash, Rinse, Final Spin, and Done)
represent the fault and error code in binary. (See Fault/Error
Code Charts on pages 6 & 7 for more information.)
