KENMORE OASIS I GET THE F1 AND I HAVE TO HIT STOP TO RESTART THE CYCLE

  • Malana Feb 19, 2009

    We purchased our Kenmore Elite Top Loader approx 2 years ago and about 6 months ago I would start a load and a few minutes later I would hear it beeping and it would flast the F1 code. I can press start/stop button and it usually restarts, but since last night cannot get it to finish a load. Model#110.27062603.

I jhavent got to figure out what an F1 is. I suspect its a "Fill" code 1?

Does it fill with water okay? If it dosnt fill within a cretian time I bet the computer see this and causes a F1? But Im guessing.

If it is this take your hoses off the washer not the faucet. put loose ends in the washer tub and hold em down while Turning on the water. Look for rust, sand or any thing that might be coming into the screens. If you have low water pressure this could be the cause also. But only remove the hose on the faucet end if you have low water pressure then look for the screens on the faucet end.
Also check the inlet of the washer at the water valve for mud, dirt or anything.

I need to know if this is what an F1 code is if you wouldn't mind posting back and if this helps you please rate me as high as you can. Thank you and good luck.

I just called Whirlpool today 11/10/11 with the F1 issue. Whirlpool is contacting our local appliance store/repair place and arranging to pay them for the service call and work needed to repair the machine. In the meantime, the Whirlpool rep tells me the washer will most likely not be able to wash any more loads. With baby #6 coming in 5 weeks, this is a big concern! Hopefully the small town repair guys will come through for me.

Right after the Lid Locks on both the wash and rinse cycle, the F1 light starts flashing and stops the cycle. We have to stop and restart at least 3 times for it to finally engage. Your suggestions...

F1 is a ( pressure sensor failure) which controls water intake in the machine control unit. The fix is to replace the machine control unit ( computer) This is an easy but costly repair..... At one time kenmore sent out letters to owners of certain models offering replacement of the computers Good Luck

F1 code coming up on my Oasis HE washer

YES! Serious problem...more annoying than anything else. Wait until your machine stops at the spin cycle and displays "F1" again. We just had a repair tech out today and received a quote of $384+ to fix/replace the circuit board. Kenmore & Sears are fully aware of this problem and have issued a recall on a model that is one digit off of the model I have yet they will not do anything about this even though it is the same problem. These machines are huge dogs!

F1 error code on Kenmore Oasis He

I think there might be a recall on your washer call to see. I am not for sure that there is a recall but I a m pretty sure there is. So don't quote me on that. the f1 error code usually means that you have a bad board. f1 means that your pressure switch line is failing and this is all in your board. check your owners manual if whirlpool is not going to pay for this repair sometimes there are extended warranties in your manual

F1 error code on Kenmore Oasis He

Per Sears. To fix the problem. Unplug the washer for at least 10 min then push pause or stop 2 times and this will fix the problem.

Kenmore Elite Oasis HE F1 Error

Im sorry to tell you but you have a bad control board. This was a faulty board from the factory. There is a class action lawsuit agianst whirlpool (whirlpool made the oasis). Try calling to get whirlpool to fix it. Maybe try joining the lawsuit. They have remanufactured the part so the new one wont do that again. Its a great machine when it works right.
