Sud SUDS (Overdose of Detergent detected during the Wash Cycle)
The motor control unit senses a suds lock condition by analyzing the current draw on the drive motor. If "Sud" is displayed a potential suds lock is detected. This may signify a bad pump, an extra heavy load, excessive detergent, or excessive suds.

SOURCE: My Kenmore Elite Front load washing machine HE4

SuD = SUDS referes to the Pump strainer. It needs to be accessed by taking off the front to get to it and be cleaned
There are 3 screws on the bottom panel you need to remove. Take off panel. Facing you is the pump strainer. Big white piece of plastic. It is the only thing you can unscrew by hand.You may be surprised as to what you find in there. Good hunting.

Machine read sud

SUD means too much soap was used. Run the washer with a few empty loads and no detergent and the SUD should go away.

What does SUD mean?

SUD means a detection of suds in the machine. These machines are very sensitive to over sudsing. Try adding just plain water or bleach to break down the suds level. They say to use 1/4 of the detergent you would use in an older machine.

If you see "Sud" or "Sd" with the Rinse status light on, the washer is in the process of removing suds. Let the cycle finish

If you see "Sud" or "Sd" and the Cycle Complete light is on, the washer detected too many suds during the cycle and your load may not be fully rinsed or water may not be fully removed. You may want to select a Rinse/Spin cycle for further rinsing.

What does it mean when your washer says ''sud''

If the digital display reads "sud" I suspect you may be adding too much detergent especially if this is a front load washer. You only need 2 tablespoons, seriously. Don't put in a cup of detergent into a front load washer as it doesn't require that much and consequently it will "oversuds" which will cause the machine to either "lock down" or go through an extended wash/rinse cycle which defeats the purpose of the front load saving water...good luck

Spinning and draining does not work, F error or sometimes Sud

Sud means you using to much soap and the f code means soap is locking the drain pump up and wont allow unit to drain and spin.
