It is an awoe 8558. the spanner symbol is flahing

Hi Lisa. I'm not familiar with the particular machine but I suspect that if you look just inside the machine near the door catch you will see a small button/lever that operates a switch. (look up microswitches on net). Switch either needs adjusting or replacing. You could try holding the switch closed with your finger or something to see if the machine is going to work - if it does look like working (filling?) the switch just needs adjustment.

The f13 is a door lock error. You will need to replace the door lock mechanism, could also be the wiring or connections for the lock itself so check that first. Cheap part and easy to replace.

Hello!

F13 means a problem with the door locking mechanism. Turn of and then turn on the machine.
Try to open and shut the door of the machine again. If the error still persists, then you will need to replace door lock mechanism. For this, you will need to remove the door gasket (its hold by spring tightened wire, then unscrew the 2 TX20 screws that hold the doorlock, unplug -it, note the part number and order a new one from your part supplier, install-it back. It's a bit difficult to put back the door gasket spring, take care to put back the gasket correctly.

Hi again,
Whirlpool AWO 'F13' decodes as 'dispenser circuit failure'. If you have tried switching off and back on again and it is still there I suspect it means that you will have to call an engineer. Sorry ;-0(
Good luck,

You did not say what machine you have!
F 13 I have is a dispenser circuit error and the causes/procedures are
1 Unplug the washer or disconnect power
2 Check the mechanical linkage from the motor to the top of the dispenser
3 Check the wire harness to the dispenser motor and the central control unit
4 Check the dispenser motor for powered rotations

Replace faulty components

If there is a spanner symbol lit it means you need to call a repairman.

The F30 error code will flash when the dispenser motor cannot be driven to its proper position.

* It could have a mechanical failure in the linkage between the dispenser motor and the top of the dispenser.
* Loose wire connection between the machine control board and the dispenser motor
* Failed dispenser motor
