Kenmore Elite Oasis Washer Error Code F1

Hello,


The F1 error code means that the computer thinks a button on the touchpad is stuck. Sometimes this can be resolved by making sure the touchpad connector fits tight into the control board. The F1 code can be cleared by pushing CANCEL/OFF. If it returns the touchpad needs to be replaced .

Sears will replace the electronic control board (the F51 prob) for free, in warranty or not. Serial #s for the bad board are: CS48 - CS52 or CT01-CT49. Call Sears at 800-847-9083.
You hv to rate me ‘very helpful’, or the call won’t get thru!!

this is a main control board failure and needs to be replaced

I think there might be a recall on your washer call to see. I am not for sure that there is a recall but I a m pretty sure there is. So don't quote me on that. the f1 error code usually means that you have a bad board. f1 means that your pressure switch line is failing and this is all in your board. check your owners manual if whirlpool is not going to pay for this repair sometimes there are extended warranties in your manual

Moister can get in between the contacts,is it in a high moister environment? Try using a hair dryer on the panel to dry it out.Also unplug it to reset.
Hope this helped.Let me know by rating me

f-1 error code,, replace main contol board ,,pressure swtich is loacted inside board would not fill drain and spin once replaced there will be no more problems, if machine is 2 yrs should be covered under warranty

repl/ main control board reason for error code F 1 ,,,nothing else

Ok these are not the series 70, getting a model number off the door will reallllllly help. Some of these sound like the oasis. F1 is motor control or primary control failure and F 41 is a rps thermistor failure.
