There is also a safety switch on the bottom compartment, if the cover is off it will display F28.

SOURCE: whirlpool duet wfw9200sq02 f28 error code

Hello,

What the F28 error code means is "serial communaction error" to put that in simple terms it says the main control board isn't talking to the motor control board. What would need to checked when the F28 code is displayed is for good tight wire connection on all the wiring harnesses between the main and motor control boards, if all the wiring plugs fit tight onto both control board while i hardly advise this and belive in the you can do it byself spirit it advise, ya call for service so the operation of both control boards can be checked to see which on has failed.

It starts and then stops and then F28 flashes

Not good! Probably motor control board or motor or wiring harness from control board to motor.

I have a whirlpool duet sport that is displaying F28 code. I have replaced the ccu unit now what do I do. It fills but will not wash, drains but will not spin HELP PLEASE!

For the F28 error code:
First, check the wiring harness connections to the MCU, the Motor, and the CCU. Make sure all the connections are tight and there are no ground wires off. Then check the connections of the CCU board within the housing.

If the wiring connections are fine then It would be a good idea to order both, as both components have been problematic for the error code F28.


Here is the CCU to order.

Here is the MCU to order.

Whirlpool Duet Sport Model WFW8300SW0 basket won't

The following list of codes indicates an electronics communication problem with the washer: - Duet HT washer - F01, F03, F06, F11, F23, F24, F27, F28, F29, F30, F31, F32, F35, F42, F61, F62, F63, F64, F65, F70, F71, and F99

If Pause/Cancel does not work:
  1. Unplug washer or disconnect power for one minute.
  2. Plug in washer or reconnect power.
  3. Re-select the cycle and press Start.
NOTE: If the error remains on the display, call for service.

I would first replace the door latch/lock assembly, a number of users have and it fixed the F-11 error code completely. Its the cheapest part for this problem.

Hope helps.

WHIRLPOOL DUET SPORT WASHER FLASH FAULT CODE F28

F28 is a serial bus error from the CCU (Central Control Unit) to the MCU (Motor Control Unit).

All you need is some Electronics contact cleaner spray and a 1/4 inch socket to remove the top of the machine and the back of the machine.
The CCU is the computer looking box at the top front right hand corner.
Find connector M13, (has red marking on it and only 3 wires) disconnect it by pushing the retainer tab back and pulling gently on the connector.
Spray the contacts of the connector and computer with connector cleaner.
Then re-assemble connector.
The MCU is in the back lower left corner.
Find the connector with 3 wires and red mark, and remove this connector in the same way you did the other, spray it and re-install.
Put the back and top back on.
