Whirlpool duet ht wouldn't start

plug it in, press power button (blue button on left) turn dial to desired cycle then press and hold the blue button on the right until u hear a click then relese. if it doesnt light up the display when u press power the washer is broken.

follow this steps and fix it. God bless you

The processes below will get most controls unlocked.

Duet Washer - Press and hold the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL button for 15 seconds.

Whirlpool Duet Dryer - Press and hold the END OF CYCLE SIGNAL button for 15 seconds.

Kenmore Elite Washer - Press and hold the DRAIN/SPIN button for 15 seconds.

Some Models- Press and hold the control lock button for 15 seconds.

If none of these work try unplugging for 5 minutes

The following list of codes indicates an electronics communication problem with the washer: - Duet HT washer - F01, F03, F06, F11, F23, F24, F27, F28, F29, F30, F31, F32, F35, F42, F61, F62, F63, F64, F65, F70, F71, and F99

If Pause/Cancel does not work:

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

NOTE: If the error remains on the display, call for service.

I would first replace the door latch/lock assembly, a number of users have and it fixed the F-11 error code completely. Its the cheapest part for this problem.

Hope helps.

power failure--------unplug the unit for 5 minutes and see if it clears that code

Just F on its own?
Try to clear it doing the following:
Select PAUSE/CANCEL twice to cancel the cycle. Select
DRAIN/SPIN if there is excessive water in the washer.
Re-select cycle and select HOLD TO START. If the problem
remains, call for service.

Hope this helps comment back if you need further help,

Hard Reset - In some cases the control can be non-functioning or may not accept activation from the control panel. To clear and restart the control follow the these steps:

Hold the 'end of cycle' signal button for 3 seconds.

Mine just did the exact same thing. I unplugged it, then plugged it back in, and it worked perfectly. Good luck!
