Have the same problem , but when it gets to the drain cycle ( about 12 min left ) will chime and show an i con on display ( washer with a hose on bottom left with an X on it ) and it doesnt drain. I un plug and let sit for awhile , turn on and go to no spin and it will manually drain ( sometimes ) Do I need and New drain pump?

As you know OE is drain error. you still have a drain problem and this could be because the pump impeller has a coin or similar jamming it, or it could be that the pump motor itself is failing. If the drain hose is clear and not kinked and the pump is working the machine should drain........Good luck....Nomess

It is possible that the machine does not start off the cycle because there are errors due to feedback from the inputs. For the program to start up the main program controller must initiate the INLET/MOTOR/DRAIN pump/ valve to open up and allow each function to be driven starting from the flow of water into the drum as also the drain valve to open to exit the water at the point of the program cycle. If this does not happen then the voltage at the valve/motor/pump must be checked or the fault relates to no voltage from the controller. This means the controller is a suspect.

Possible there is moisture within the board or the panel/display. remove and use a dryer to warm, reset checking for moisture in the harness and connectors. If the fault persists , the processor/display unit is a suspect.

Ihave the same problem and my husband thinks its something i'm doing wrong.I did switch to he detergent and it helped for a while.Now it's doing it again.I just cleaned all the rubber pieces with bleach water and hopeing it will help.But truthfully i can't wait for this thing to die so i can get a new washer.and it will not be a front loader.....

its a door error ita because the door is not closing all the way

Have you fixed the leak? Where was/is it leaking from?

You will need to replace the water inlet valve. Here is the part you need.

proceed with common sense and logically, fix it use the Vom or DVOM .God bless you

For this error code you need to check both the water heater or element and thermistor, basically the washing machine is reporting a fault on the heating circuit with this fault code but it is not capable of identifying exactly where the fault actually lies. On non-display panel models this fault code is denoted by the lights for 95, 60, 40 and cold being lit or flashing.

• Check water heating element
• Check heater for contunuity,
• Check steam heater for continuity usually
• Check thermistor or temperature sensor
• Check the thermistor resistance,
• Check wiring to water heating element
• Check connections to water heating element and temperature sensor
