    machine will not do any thing shows code 06 .

  2. do you have the model number of your machine ?

  3. jacques simard says:

    my model is whirlpool wfc7500vw

    thank you

  4. Chris says:

    My model is a AWOD AS147 and the fault code is F07 – “Triac short circuit detection” according to the above, but I’m not sure that’s what the issue is.
    The motor and the pump are going, but the drum isn’t turning. When I turn the drum by hand it makes a disagreeable noise, like something has broken within the mechanism that controls the drum spin.

  5. Check the carbon brushes and the commutator plates on the armature this could be making the noise and the circuit fault.

    Let me know how you get on…

  6. Chris says:

    Had a repairer out, it’s the bearings which have gone. Thanks anyway!

  7. chris says:

    hello

    My model is a AWO10761 the fault code is F6 or F15,the motor makes noise, no power to turn the drum
    many thanks

  8. The first thing I’d check is the carbon brushes and the armature on the motor to make sure everything is fine there.

    Have a look and let me know how you get on.

    WE HAVE A WHIRLPOOL 6th SENCE AWOE9558S 8 MONTHS OLD IT KEEPS COMING UP WITH F13 HAD WHIRLPOOL OUT AND THEY REPLACED DOOR LOCK AND CATCH BUT IT STILL DOES F13 WHEN ITS AT THE END OF WASH WHEN ITS READY TO DO ITS LAST SPIN

  15. mattnall says:

    I have the same code, F13, on a whirlpool AWO D5716. When I turned the control dial to OFF and then back on again the power wouldn’t come on – no lights etc. and door wouldn’t open.

    After a couple of minutes the door unlocked and now the power is back on and everything seems fine. Ran a ‘rinse and spin’ cycle and it stopped with the same code.

    Now when the door releases power doesn’t come back on.

    Any help appreciated.

  16. William says:

  21. Stewart says:

    Hi,
    I have an AWM 1000 which comes up with an F10 code constantly and will not move from one cycle to the next. Any suggestions most welcome. Apparently this code is the ‘Motor Control Unit (Thermal)’. What does that mean?

    Many thanks for any help.

  22. Mrs. Cooper says:

    We have the fabric sense system, whirlpool washing machine and just all of a sudden it stopped spinning. It makes the sound and goes through the whole cycle, the water drains completely but after that it will not spin but it goes to the end of the cycle and cuts off. My clothes are completely and with the spin process they are almost dry. Should I look into a repair or is the machine just done. We have had it for 3 & 1/2 years. Thanks, Mrs. Cooper 6/4/2011

  29. Gail says:

    AWM337 Whirlpool Inspirations, approx 11 years old, perfect working order until last week. Wash programme completes but then after the spin cycle the water does not empty from the drum and it cuts out completely, just goes silent. Any ideas ?

  30. shannon says:

    i have a mod.#WTW6600SWI. We use the sheet cycle the most. inconsistently i get F1 code. noticed on a time when i did not get the code, but was looking for it i could here the pump but no water. as you know the sheet cycle is the only cycle to fill the drum. and yet this particular time i got no fault.

  31. Andy says:

    We have an AWM6141 and we are getting the FH error code. This usually comes on at around 6 minutes into a 30 minute wash. The drum has water in it and when the error occurs, the pump kicks in and drains the water. I have checked all connections and cleaned out hoses…still no luck.

    Any ideas?

  32. Mairi says:

  41. Tony Bacon says:

    Whirlpool Model AWO/R5406

    Approx 2 years old . It will do a full cycle on any set temperature but will not just spi, or rinse and spin. It just keeps sounding as if its going to start but doesn’t.I have had this problem before and when I phoned whirlpool they said it was Code 4. To rectify , un plug, open door and depress the start button for 60 secs . It has not cured the problem this time. Anybody had the same problem ?
