Whirlpool Duet WFW9550 Washer - Page 8 Questions & Answers
How do I unlock my washer
im gessing its a front load.. under the door switch there is a plastic tab that you pull about 1 cm down it aint easy to reach but its there you need to slide your hand in there and feel it
Will not spin or drains shows F21
The F21 error on a Whirlpool Duet washer means the unit was draining slowly. This can be caused by a blocked outlet hose (kinked hose, for example), excessive suds from using non-HE detergent or too much detergent, blockages in the drain pump filter (coin catcher), or a problem with the pump.
You should be able to clear the error by pressing Pause/Cancel twice. Check your outlet hose. Then unplug the washer. Have a bucket handy to catch the water when you access the pump. Remove the toe panel from the bottom of the washer. There are three screws to remove; then you need to lift the panel slightly and pull it forward.Check the filter for foreign objects.
Test the washer by selecting a cycle and running it with no clothing or detergent. If the unit still fails, then the pump, pump motor or the pressure switch is bad. However, you should also check the wiring to the unit.
I hope this helps. Please add a comment with the model of your washer for specific directions and parts information.
