Unplug washer and let set 30 min. should reset. plug in, turn on then turn off a couple of times to see if doorlocks and unlocks properly. If not you may need a new switch. That F22 is door lock malfunction. You may need to check hinges and see if they are tight.

SOURCE: Duet Front load Washer - will not start cycle.

Does your front washer, every time you press cancel give you a code that looks similiar to ER?

I checked the description and for some reason whirlpool denies having a F22 code on the Duet, but that doesn't mean much.

I am suspecting several things.

1. Electrical supply may have had a surge at one point or another. You may have to ask your electrical company to put a surge protector on your house by the meter. This is not to protect everything it has its own limits!

2. Unplug the machine for a while. Turn off the water supply and disconnect hoses The machine knows if there is water coming into the machine by a trip sensor.

3. drain out your exhaust line. There is a possiblity your machine thinks you are full of water when it is actually empty.

4 put everything back on, and then plug machine back in after about an hour or so. If it still doesn't work, it is time for your local appliance repair service technician to come out. He will check door trip sensor, and a few other areas that may be acting up.

Good luck.

SOURCE: F 22 front door locked and door won't open.

hi there,

the F22 stands for the CCU/Touchpad error. in other words, the keypad has lost connection with the control board behind it.

this is what you do:

unplug the washer
take off the console
check the connection between the touch pad and the CCU boad
make sure that nothing looks corroded or burnt
make sure that nothing is pinched or bent
unplug and replug wiring harness and connections form keypad to the CCU board

let me know if it this works.

SOURCE: WFW9200SQA12 F22 code problem

The problem you are experiencing is a Long Drain error. You need to check the drain pump reservoir and drain lines for obstructions. the following link explains how:

http://www.fixya.com/support/r385845-checking_drain_pump_in_whirlpool_duet

If cleaning the pump does not correct the problem, it is recommended by the manufacturer that you replace it. It does not take much to permanently damage these small pumps. If anything has been lodged in the intake if the pump for any significant period of time, the motor and/or impeller may become damaged. This results in a pump they "appears" to be running, but may not be pumping anything.

In addition, check the drain hose that runs from the bottom of the wash tub to the intake side of the drain pump. I have personally found small articles of clothing lodged in this area blocking the drain pump. Garments bags are highly recommended for small articles to prevent this.

I hope you find this information helpful. if you require additional assistance, please let me know.

What is code F22 on sport duet washer? The locking mechanizm buzzes a little, and when you push start it's locked and stays locked, and you have to stick your hand up in it to unlock it.Thanks.

Hi,
"F22" is a door latch failure error code. At the beginning of the wash cycle the door will attempt to lock several times. If the latch fails to lock, the washer shuts down and the error code is displayed.

In some cases, the error code can also be displayed if the CCU goes bad. There is a door latch relay on the board that controls the door locking mechanism. The CCU is not serviceable and must be replaced if defective. In addition, make sure all the connector plugs between the CCU and door latch are connected and snug.

Thank you !!
