Error code F 01 on Whirlpool Duet Washer

Google is your friend

From what I found, looks like the computer may be blown.
If you remove the front bottom panel there should be a tech manual in there that describes the codes.

Before you order a new part... For fun, try unplugging it for 20 minutes, then plug it back in. See if clears the code.

After about year and half Whirlpool duet sport gave F01 error code. The technician manual is located under the lower front panel. There are three possible reasons for F0:
1) EEPROM ERROOR. Unplug a washer for two minutes. Try running it again. (Did not work for me).
2) MAIN RELAYS ERROR. The tech manual suggests replacing CCU. The following is what I did and it fixed the problem, however. Unplug the washer. Remove the top cover by removing the three screws on the back. The CCU unit is in the right bottom corner if standing in front of the washer

Thank you V111 ! I did what you told me and it worked!

Tried what v111 said and it worked! Amazing, we thought it was a joke. I love it when whacking something is the answer.

Wow just did it and it worked. I am impressed. I had no other options so I tried it and it worked. Thanks a bunch.

V111, thanks! F01 error happened when we cancelled a cycle in progress.

I had my 17 year old son follow your instructions and it worked - you are the best!

V111 is THE man!

I had ordered a new CCU when I came across this thread. Using a screw driver, I carefully removed the CCU circuit board from its plastic housing. (It was, of course, already unplugged and removed from the washer.) I tapped each relay with the hand of said screwdriver. (Relays are the rectangular black boxes on the circuit board.) I put everything back together, plugged her in and walla! She works fine now.

Thanks again V111!

...and I canceled my CCU order & saved $116!
