This error code indicates that the door needs to be opened and closed.

The F26 code may appear the first time you try to use the washer. Open and close the door to clear the display.

The F26 code may also appear if the washer has run three cycles without the door being opened. Open and close the door to clear the display.


If opening and closing the door does not remove the error display, press Pause/Off or Pause/Cancel twice.

If Pause/Off or Pause/Cancel does not work:

  1. Unplug the washer or disconnect the power for one minute.
  2. Plug in the washer or reconnect the power.
  3. Re-select the cycle and press Start.

F26 (on an HE5t)

The error F26 does indicate a fault in the door switch circuit. See the image below for a complete listing of what can cause this error. There is a door unlock error that would display if the door is not locking or unlocking but the F26 means the control is not seeing the door switch open and close.

This is most likely a problem with the door switch or a loose connection at the switch.

What does F26 mean

Hi, Well The error F26 does indicate a fault in the door switch circuit. There is a door unlock error that would display if the door is not locking or unlocking but the F26 means the control is not seeing the door switch open and close.This is most likely a problem with the door switch or a loose connection at the switch.
One thing to try first before scheduling service or replacing the part is to check the connections on the door switch.
You can unplug the washer first and remove the lower access panel and reach up to the door lock and try to feel for the connections and make sure they're tight.


Thanks! mannu_rakesh
