Hi,

The F11 code is saying that there is a problem with the motor or motor control board, both at the bottom of the machine. Most often the problem is not there but rather in the communications between the CCU circuit board and the motor or motor control board. The CCU circuit board (inside back, top of machine, plastic case) has what's called cold solder joints where the relays (5 of them) and the spade connectors are supposed to be firmly soldered to the circuit board. Whirlpool had a quality control problem with these circuit boards but won't recall them. The cure is to remove the CCU circuit board in the plastic case (it's easier that way) then remove the circuit board and touch-up those cold solder connections I mentioned. If your not up on soldering techniques, you can remove the CCU case, with the circuit board inside, and take it along with this response, to a good appliance repair shop and they should be able to help you out. Good luck.

Washer stops and F11 code flashes

An F11 is a communication failure between the machines control board and the motor controller. Often you will also experience a 'DL' error associated with the F11 because when the washer fails, the door is still locked and when you restart the wash, the electronics will try and lock an already locked door. Either the control board or motor controller can cause this error along with a bad harness or loose connector, but the majority of the time it is the main control that is failing.

Our front load washer flashes f11 and stops in middle of load and will not finish.

Hi,
I wrote a solution before but it's not showing up as delivered to you so I'll try again. The F11 code is saying that there is a problem with the motor or motor control board (MCU) Most often the problem is communications from the CCU circuit board and the MCU. The problem is that there are cold solder joints on the CCU board at the point where the relays (5 of them) and the spade connectors are supposed to be soldered firmly to the board. The repair is to remove the CCU case (inside, top, back of machine) then remove the circuit board and touch-up those cold solder joints I mentioned. If your not up on soldering techniques just take this response and the CCU case, with circuit board, to a good appliance repair shop and they should be able to help you out. Good luck.

F11 error lights flash then stops at last spin . I did clean the filter and took some coins out Whirlpool AWM8163 washer

The F11 fault is the motor. I have had this issue myself and found that replacing the contact brushes solved this. The brushes on most electric motors are made from carbon, and wear down with use. They are spring loaded but have a limited life span. These are also cheap to purchase.

F11 Kiss of Death!

f11 is in my experience has been a faulty rear board, its really a communitcation error betwwen the control board, the latch and the lower motor control board(rarely an issue with the motor controller, but have seen faulty wiring(in which case had to replace the entire wire harness, as well as ann occasional door latch. keep after it under warr, so when it does runn out youll have records of attemps to fix while underwarr and make them make good on repairs after warrr expires
