FDL code is a door lock code on these washers, but be advised, the older models had an issue with the main control boards loosing connection at the soldered joints for the door switch. They would loose solder, and the board would think the fault was the door lock and it was actually the board.

If the door fails to lock after six (6) attempts "Fdl" will display. The "Fdl" error code indicates the door failed to lock or the control does not detect the door being locked. The likely failure is the door lock mechanism. There is always a chance there could be a loose wire connection between the door lock mechanism and the Central Control Unit (CCU) causing the error too.

F/H code means the machine has not detected water entering machine. If the machine is filling with water then you need to check the pressure switch. If no water is entering machine then you need to check the fill valve.

Unplug the washer for AT LEAST 30 minutes to reset the Central Control Unit (CCU). If the door still remains locked after a CCU reset, you can still open the door by using the manual release. The following link explains how:

NOTE: The "Fdl" and Fdu" fault codes are for older models of your washer, but the principle of accessing and releasing the door latch is still the same.

If your error code still persists, you may have to replace the door latch. Just follow the guidance in the link below:

yes!! the F/11 is triggered under high voltage conditions like high speed spinning. The part is called the MCU motor control unit. if it goes into failure while using your machine and locks the door, just wait 3 minutes and the door will unlock after the MCU resets. Try using you machine with a low speed spin for awhile.

Broken supply hose behind the washer??

Remove three screws in the back that secure the top. Push down on lid and slide to the back.

If sound like a lid switch issue. Open the top of the washer to get an access to the lid switch(located near the doorframe). Look for a loose wire or a broken switch. In case there is no loose wire or broken switch, you should replace the switch. Good luck!
