Our Kenmore Elite HE3 Model prefix is 110 stops during the rince and spin cycle,beeps, and desplays F dL or F 11. The door light is not on, but the door is locked. We were able to start and complete the cycle by numberous attemps in pressing pause/cancel,drain & spin and a few other combinations. Is there anything you could suggest.

Wash another load and see what happens the f-dl code means door lock problem and f-11 means communication error between top control board and the bottom control board if you can wash a load completly everything will be ok but you can't let me know and we see where to go from there

  • sandygammie Apr 27, 2011

    Mine is doing the same thing? I replaced the door lock thinking that would solve the problem.... it did not. It does some clicking noises and sometimes the door locks but get the error code fdl. I have unpluged the stupid thing, wiggled all the wires, re plugged them all back in and tried to start the machine and just get the beeping and the error code. Another $100. down the drain. Now I am thinking its the main control board. I have no idea how much that will cost or is there something else I can try to get my machine working again???

Kenmore Elite HE3 front loader F-11 and FDL codes

yes!! the F/11 is triggered under high voltage conditions like high speed spinning. The part is called the MCU motor control unit. if it goes into failure while using your machine and locks the door, just wait 3 minutes and the door will unlock after the MCU resets. Try using you machine with a low speed spin for awhile.
