I have the same model and same error and issue. Did you find your answer?! It has been an error code since it was installed by we haven’t had it looked at yet. I just realized today that no matter what setting I choose the clothes come out hot even if steam function is off

First try reversing the hoses to see if that remidies it.

Testimonial: "When doing a hot wash the water is hot, when doing a cold wash the wash is cold but the rince is hot..."

    Ah! It does that so that the dishes dry better. Some heat the rinse/wash water with a element in the unit others use your hot water. The dry element will always come on creating steam that sometimes you can see coming out of the front vent.
    Unless there is a air dry setting, but it still, will rinse with hot water.
    Either way it is suppose to do that tis not like a cloths washer.
    Hope this helps you understand your dishwasher.
    Best to you.

  • vince Jan 25, 2018

    the hose error may be due to the filter screen on the unit being restricted from minerals that are in the hot water and it catches.
    If you remove the hose from the unit inspect the screen that should be in the part you connect the hose to. Check too the cold one.
    Hope this helps.

EW1200 is rinsing in hot water how do we change that

Hot wash, hot rinse is for 'whites'. Cold wash, cold rinse is for 'colors'. Warm wash, cold or warm rinse is for 'permanent press'. Check your settings to see if you have these options. Double check the hoses, put the machine on cold fill and feel the hoses.
Has someone worked on the machine and possibly put the wires on the solenoids wrong? Easy mistake to make.

My Whirlpool Duet ht Washer starts washing fine, it drains then it starts flashing FH and wont take in water for the rinse cycle. It does this for every cycle, it will wash fine but after it drains and is...

The first thing I would check is shut off the cold water valve at the wall and remove the hose at the washer.carefully pry out the little screen in the inlet and clean well,reconnect hose and turn water back on FH is a water inlet issue I am hoping that what is happening is that when the washer starts its wash cycle it is probably filling with warm (hot) and cold water at the same time even though it might be mostly hot,but when it comes time to rinse (cold water ) there is not enough to make the computer happy and you get your FH error.. Hope this Helps,,If not your probley looking at a new fill valve assy

Front load kenmore washer will not fill on rinse cycle

yes you should have both hot and cold hooked up. if that is not possible splice the line you have and y it into both inlets. thats not the best way to do it but will solve the imediate problem.

Check hose error on electrolux wave touch washing machine

I'm sure nojallo1 has already fixed his but I just ran into the same problem and didn't find anything in my searches for a solution. The problem I had was the test cycle wasn't long enough to get hot water through my water lines so it could verify the hot and cold hoses were in the proper places. Solution: Turn the hot water on in all the sinks in your house until they have hot water running through them. This will prime your hot water line so it is full of hot water instead of cold water. Then run the install cycle again and it should be fine.

Kenmore front-load washer stops at rinse cycle

When the washer initially fills for the wash, is it only hot water entering the drum? Try switching the water temperature between hot and cold as it fills. If any of them show little or no water getting through, it sounds too easy but check to make sure water supply taps are on, and that the cold/hot fill hoses aren't reversed. Remove the fill hoses and check any of the screen filters for blockage (in the hoses and in the inlet water valve). When the machine stops and waits to fill but all you hear is a hum, it sounds like there is power going to the valve but water is not able to get through it.
Good luck!

Washer is using hot water on the cold/cold was

Unless your hoses are reversed the machine control is bad and needs to be replaced. Please contact me if you need further help or leave feedback if appropriate as that is how I get paid. Thanks for letting me help you!

Should the washer be hot after the rinse cycle?

Try cycling a cold/cold wash and see how that comes out.. if it comes out hot then your water inlet valve is letting hot water in when it shouldn't.. conversely, try cycling a hot/hot wash and see that it does indeed come out hot... ( quick tests to verify performance)..hope this helps.
