My washing machine Kenmore HE2t has a Code 3H. Door is locked with load inside

SOURCE: KENMORE HE2T WASHING MACHINE

"F25" is a tachometer error. If the control unit is unable to detect the proper motor speed, the machine will shut down. You can attempt to unplug the washer for at least 30 minutes to reset the computer. Sometimes this is all that is required to correct momentary glitches. If the error reappears, the manufacturer recommends the following:

1. Check the wiring harness between the Central Control Unit, Motor Control Unit and Drive Motor to ensure they are all connected properly and not broken or loose. This would be connections L2 and N1 at the MCU and connector MS2 pins 1 and 2 at the CCU. (There is a wiring diagram inside the washer behind the lower kick panel).

2. Verify the Drive Motor is turning and the motor windings are good. Resistance checks at the drive motor connector acros Pins 1 to 2, 2 to 3, and 1 to 3 should all read about 6 ohms.

I hope this helps you.

PS I believe the tachometer is a physically attached to the drive motor.

F21 is a long drain...it is taking too long to drain..you have a something slowing down the drain.. you can remove the bottom panel and clean out coin trap... if there is nothing then you may have another problem... but this is the most common problem..

Hi,
The outlet pump can be easily identified by reverse tracing the outlet pipe most of the unit will have at the back of the unit so remove the back side cover you can see the pump two clips will be present one from the drum and another is connected to the outlet pipe just remove the clips then two screws will be presented kindly remove those to unfix the pump from the machine then you can easily replace the pump

It appears your timer/main controller/CCU has failed in this instance.

For replacement parts - head on over to PartSelect.com or RepairClinic.com and enter in your full model number for a full parts listing.
I recommend both sites because ...


FixYa has no affiliation with either site - I have been using and recommending them for years - trouble free.

PartSelect has a great schematic database for locating the part on your unit and great "testimonials" for each part that often times includes HOW-TO information.
RepairClinic has pictures of each part they sell and also a great how-to and troubleshooting for basic repairs.


If your unit has never been serviced - there should still be an original service manual enclosed in plastic taped to the inside of the shell.
In the service manual are Error codes, maintenance procedures, and troubleshooting steps you can follow.


Anything too complicated or beyond your scope should be handled by a professional.

If you think you want to tackle the repair - and have gotten stuck on a step - reply to your question and I will be glad to help you out.
