i lost the manual , what does "5d" mean when it is

LF error indicates Long Fill

Remove the hose coming from the wall and clean the screen on the machine side.

If it is clean - and you have good flow from the wall - then you either have a bad water valve or the control is sending power to the secondary diverter valve but not the primary hot/cold valve or vise verse.

If cleaning screens doesn't work then most likely needs inlet valve. i have seen one of these with LF code caused by the machine control howeve.

If you have the flood proof hoses - change them for regular ones... they have some sort of built in safety mechanism where if they "think" the flow is too much they will shut themselves off.

Unplug machine and tilt it back. Pull down the white insulation board. remove the two screws holding the white/clear plastic guard in place 5/16 nut driver. and check the gear and belt ours had come off. Now it works just like new you will need a 13mm hex for putting the gear back up.

spinout bearing bad if noisey in spin only whole tub must be repaired

The out of balance is why it does not spin. You can manually stop the machine, and spin the basket. Then move the clothes until it is balanced. Then start it again on rinse & spin or drain & spin as appropriate. When you get tired of this, try below.Or you can change the "Soil Level" to heavy or very heavy". This increases the water level and helps it balance the load.

LF (F30)
LF flashes when the control don't sense any water coming in like it is supposed to do. Things to check:
Hoses connected; water turned wide open.
Hose screens plugged.
Is water siphoning out due to having the drain hose too low? (30 inches above the floor)
Pressure hose from tub to control loose, pinched, hole, Sediment in tub? Blow that tubing out and re-secure; retry with water OUT of tub so the pressure can properly build in that tubing.
