Washer displays F0E2 and may stop mid-cycle with excessive suds visible in the tub or on the door glass (front-load) or in the basket (top-load).

Safety First: Unplug the washer before removing hoses or accessing internal components.

This code indicates the control detected too many suds, which can prevent proper draining and spinning.

• Step 1 – Let suds dissipate: Leave the washer off for 30–60 minutes to allow suds to break down. Do not add more detergent.
• Step 2 – Run a Rinse & Spin: Select Rinse & Spin with no detergent to flush remaining suds.
• Step 3 – Check detergent type and amount: Confirm you are using HE (High Efficiency) detergent. Use the minimum amount recommended on the bottle for your load size and soil level.
• Step 4 – Inspect drain system: Remove the drain hose from the standpipe and check for kinks or partial clogs. Ensure the standpipe height meets installation specs (typically 39–96 inches).
• Step 5 – Inspect pressure hose (advanced): With power disconnected, remove the top or rear panel, locate the small air hose from the tub to the pressure switch or control, and check for soap residue or kinks. Clean or replace if blocked.

Persistent F0E2 errors even with correct detergent use may indicate a pressure system or control issue that should be evaluated by a technician.
