How do fix error code F21 on my Kenmore He2 washer that will not drain...

the pump may be blocked.........disconect the pump tp check......
good luck

2 easy fix, clean the drain pipe on the back or have the hose higher level than the washer. If don't work its electronic.

Hi
F21 error means that the drain time has exceeded 8 minutes; this will turn off the water valves. Press PAUSE/CANCEL two times to clear the display. If errors still remains then please check the drain hose and make sure it is not plugged or kinked. Disassemble the washer by removing the back from the washer and check the electrical connections at the pump and make sure the pump is draining. Also inspect the pump filter for foreign objects. Before disassembling remember to turn off the power and disconnect the washer. If it still doesn't help then there is an issue with the pump and you'll need to replace it. Hope this helps... Please post back if you need more information.

you machine is clogged,easy to solve.Take clothes out put them in to bucket or tub,Now try scopping water out,and put in draino-max and let it soak for 1hr.Now run machine no clothes,See your drain pump is clogged it may be pet hair or strings or lint.You need to bleach machine atleast every 2-weeks.

If your washer does not drain you need to check this parts.

1. Inspect the drain hose for kinks
2. Test the timer control
3. Test the lid switch(some models)
4. Inspect the water pump
5. Inspect the drive belt(belt drive only)
6. Inspect the motor coupler

Either your drain pump is bad or something is stuck in it.  It won't spin until it drains so fix the drain pump, and it will spin.  You should be able to get at the drain pump by taking off the bottom panel, or back panel.

Check to see if the drain hose is twisted or crimped. Start the wash cycle from the beginning

“F21” is a Long Drain error. If the drain time exceeds 8 minutes this error code will be displayed. In addition, a “SUDS” error may also be displayed. This may be an indication of a drain pump problem and/or clog in the drain line. You will need to check the following:


1.First, attempt to unplug the washer for at LEAST 30 minutes to reset the Central Control Unit (CCU). Sometimes this is all that is required to correct momentary glitches with the unit. If the error code returns, proceed to step 2.
2.Check the drain hose to make sure it is not kinked or clogged.
3.Check the electrical connections to the pump and ensure the pump is running.
4.Remove the drain pump filter and check for foreign objects and/or debris.
