My washer has an F dl problem?

Hi,

When my washer did that, I found that the shocks that hold the tub were bad...

Check out this tip I wrote about the noise and vibration that front load washers can make..

this code is for a door lock failure. it can also be a ccu problem as well. some have had luck hitting the back right corner of the machine forcefully to remedy this problem.

i think the dl code is clogged water pump,tip it back and you can remove the water pump cover and check it-mike

The door lock is not telling the control the door is locked. Faulty door switch or failed control or loose wire.Try pushing in on the door while it tries to start. Advanced trouble shooting may be required.

when it is in high spin then you stop the washer it makes a thumping noise until the basket stops sort of like a flat tire sounds to me like you need a drive block

the dl code means door lock ,,,, you will need to replace the door latch assy to fix it / larryyb

sounds like door lock issue but probably not lock itself remove top (3 screws) along back of top ..at rear of machine is control board ..if you are hearing a clicking noise at time door is supposed to be locking try wiggling connectors on control bd if i remember they are the pink wires if door locks then you have a bad connection on control bd may try wedging something under connector to help hold in place but only true fix is a control bd..good luck

f dl refers to a bad door lock. do you hear a faint clicking noise when you try start the machine and after maybe 30 secs of clicking the" fdl "comes up???or perhaps the door makes the noise to lock but never does lock,in which case sounds like a bad latch assy.. although the fault for the door latch it could also be the CCU not energizing the door lock. try taking off the top of the unit by removing the 3 screws along the back of the top assy (they are torx 20 screws) form there youll see the main control board mounted to rear wall and if you look straight down the right front side youll see the wiring for the door lock itself. disconnect power to unit!!!!! first unplug and replug all the wire harness on the door latch and then also the pink wires on the module itself, maybe just a loose connection. try it now see what happens
