The F1 error code on this washer indicates a Primary Control Board failure.



It is likely that the machine control board will need to be replaced to correct this problem.



The part number for the machine control board is undetermineable because you have not provided me with the exact model # of your washer.



The procedure for replacing the machine control board is provided HERE

LINK: http://media.fotki.com/1_p,wfgstgtftbtkrrdxgtqsskgwtqkq,vi/gfsfgfsgqxgfqtqtgwf/1/1303472/5961857/image55806img-or.gif



NOTE: Be sure to unplug the washer to disconnect electrical power before accessing internal components.



There is a slight possibility that a problem with the pressure switch hose could be causing this problem.

A pinched or twisted air hose can cause this fault code.

When you open the console, check the air hose connected to the pressure switch on the machine control board.

If it is pinched or crimped, I recommend rerouting the hose to resolve this problem.

This may fix your problem without replacing the control board.



NOTE: You may want to check for this condition before ordering the control board. Most electronic control boards cannot be returned for a refund or credit.



If you find no apparent problems with the air hose on the pressure switch, then replacing the machine control board on this washer should correct your problem. There is a risk involved in replacing this part yourself.

As noted above, you could have a problem with the air pressure hose that is not apparent upon your initial inspection. A service technician would normally need to properly and thoroughly diagnose this problem before replacing the control board.

Our frigidaire stove or the oven is locked and it just keeps making this beep noise and the oven wont unlock so we really need help unlocking the oven and stoping the been noise thanks

The "F1" error code indicates a failure of the Electronic Oven Control or EOC circuit board. You may find the oven gets too hot, fails to respond to input or acts irregularly when the EOC is malfunctioning or broken. While this code usually indicates a need for repairs.

My washer keeps stoping and saying f1

F1 error code means that the control board has a failed component on it and needs to be replaced. Heres a little tip though due to so many of these control boards being faulty there is a class action law suit against whirlpool for installing the control boards into the cabrio. If you were to contact whirlpool directly I am pretty sure they will replace the board for you rather then you spend the 175.00 for the control board from a appliance parts store here is a number that a couple people I found have called and whirlpool sent a technician out to change the board for them free of charge 1-866-698-2538. I would call this number and talk directly to whirlpool on this matter. If you have any further questions message me back and please also remember when our chat has fully concluded to rank how this opinion has helped in your appliance situation it allows me to continue helping others in similar situations in the future. Thanks again Rick

Hi


Thanks for using FixYa. Error F1 indicates primary control failure and to resolve this you’ll have to replace the machine control assembly. This error should be fixed by whirlpool as its a common issue with whirlpool Cabrio washers, you can call 1-800-253-1301 whirlpool will send a tech. to fix it and pay for the part. Please do rate the solution if the issue is resolved or post a comment for further assistance.


Thanks
