WHAT IS THE REASON OR CAUSE POSSIBLE FOR WHICH IS IN CODE F32

F32 is a pressure switch failure. It controls the water level in the washer. The switch is a round plastic part mounted on the right panel towards the back right corner. Remove the switch by disconnecting the wire harness and the rubber tube connected to it and gently rotate it 90 degrees CCW and you should be able to pull it out easily. Some suggest that blowing on the tube will clean out anything that could be clogging it as a quick fix. If you suspect the switch you test it by checking two things; Blow on the inlet that was connected to the rubber tube you should hear a couple of clicks. The second test is to check if the switch works electrically. If the switch is bad you will need to replace it.

f32 is usual pressure switch failure

You may have more than one problem.
The code F32 is for a problem between the engine computer and the body computer, or a loss of memory. To fix that someone would need to check the ground connections and the harness between the two computers.
The engine could be burning coolant like the head gasket problem you mentioned.

The "F32" error code is indicating that there is no electrical supply to the Pressure Switch from the Central Control Unit (CCU) or if the Pressure Switch contacts are not making, then "F32" is displayed.

Possible Causes/Procedures:

• Pressure switch failure
• Check the Pressure Switch wiring harness for continuity.
• Check the Pressure Switch for correct operation with a Digital volt/ohm meter.
• To manually check the function of the Pressure Switch, remove hose from switch and apply air to switch. Audible clicks will be heard from the switch.

Here's a solution from an old posting of the same problem in a different Kenmore washer:


F32 is the code for a Water Level Switch Failure.
1. Remove the top panel from the washer by removing thethree screws in the top back of the washer.
2.Inside the back rightcorner is a round plastic box, fastened to the side with a plasticsnap. In will have a wire connector and a small, rubber hose connectedto it.
3. Check to make sure all the connector wires areconnected and tight. Unplug washer for 30 seconds to reset it. If the cycle failsstill with the F32 code, you'll need to replace the Water Level Switch.
4. Ifthe Water Level Switch does not eliminate the F32 code, it then the machine controller may have failed.

Mine had F51 and F32. After reading the solution #1 I checked the drain pump for any clogging but it was a broken wire (blue) in the pump connector. It was (long but) an easy fix, because the connector is IDC and we just need to open the cap, take out the remaining wire piece, reposition the wire in the blade and close it again, using a pipe plier. It's back to life.

The F32 error code is a pressure switch failure error code, this error could be caused by several different reasons.

More than likely the pressure switch has malfunctioned. Be sure you are using H.E.(high efficiency)detergent. Select STOP twice to cancel the cycle. Select DRAIN & SPIN if there is excessive water in the washer. Re-select cycle and press START. If the problem remains you will need to call for service. This type of repair will require accessing the inside of the cabinet area to make some checks. This will require a service technician to diagnose & repair.

F32 is a long drain fault code. Tip your washing machine back far enough that you don't have to hold it up. At the back of the unit there are two "things" with hoses coming out of them attached to the bottom of the outer tub. On the left is the recirculation pump, and to the right is the drain pump. Take a wet/dry vac and get as much water out as possible through the end of the drain hose, then pull the hose off the drain pump, remove the pump, and look for coins/shoelaces/whatever might be blocking it on the inside.

What make and model is your washer? This applies to Whirlpool cabrios. Just reread your message and realized that I have no idea what you're talking about. F codes are pretty common in different brands, but "32" could mean anything. All depends on what you're looking at.

We found out that the F32 code means you have a faulty pressure switch. From my online research this is a common thing with the whirlpool.

We had just bought it and the next day when it was delivered we were excited to try it out and got that bloody F32 code...luckily 2 days later we got it fixed by a repairman.

I have know idea why Whirlpool would make a product with all sorts of codes, but no explanation as to what they mean. That makes no sense.

3. Check to make sure all the connector wires are connected and tight. Unplug washer for 30 seconds to reset it. If the cycle fails still with the F32 code, you'll need to replace the Water Level Switch.
4. If the Water Level Switch does not eliminate the F32 code, it then the machine controller may have failed.
