Howdy, mine is the washer dryer combo unit, I’m getting an FE error code and the drain pump filter seems clean and clear and the clothes haven’t dryed since I got this unit; i moved into an apartment and it came with. What parts should I get and instal to fix the FE code and also what parts should I buy to fix the heating element?
For model number WM3488HW
Hello Evan, Thank you for your inquiry. The FE error code is displayed when the amount of water in the tube is more than required for the load and is often caused by an issue with the water inlet valve or water level pressure switch. You can test the valves and switch with a multimeter. For the dryer not heating, we would recommend checking the heating element, safety thermostat and thermistor, which you can also do with a multimeter. Good luck with your repair.
Removed the top of the washer by removing the 4 back screws and 2 small brackets. Then I removed the front panel, this was actually the hardest part, 2 screws and 8 tabs that you pop out carefully from the top of the panel. I only disconnected the power button and was able to rest the panel on top of the washer. The rest of the washer came apart quickly just moving down the front of the washer and removing the door, latch, tub gasket, drain cover. Removing the pump was just a mater of disconnecting the drain hoses, and one clip under the drain assembly. 3 screws attach the drain to assembly to the pump and only 2 wires that are clearly marked. Reassembly is just going back through in reverse order of disassenbly. The best thing about this is that it all comes apart with a standard phillips screwdriver.
Thank you for the very helpful YouTube video. After watching the video, I was able to diagnose the problem, buy the part from your website, and complete the repair. This is my personal machine - I am not a professional repairman.
There are two pumps in this system. I turned the washer on its side and took off bottom plate. There are several screws holding this on. I then took the entire pump assembly off. There are 3 screws holding each pump on the brown plastic body. Each pump has a positive and negative lead. I switched out the pump and reassembled. The hardest part is getting the 3 "shock absorbers in place with the rubber sleeves. I think the book suggest getting to the pump from the front side but I went through the bottom. Worked good. I did wonder however if the other pump was working. Do you need two pump working to get flow? By replacing one pump I went from no flow to good flow. Cost me $75.00
