Hi! bigtaybaby, welcome to AMHD :)
Do you notice wet clothes or water left in the tub when the washer codes?
FL flashes if any overfill condition occurs. This condition occurs when excessive water in the tub causes the overfill switch to trip. The control must realize that the trip was due to an overfill condition instead of a suds lack condition in order for FL to be displayed
With an overfill condition, the beeper repeats a warning every 10 seconds with no time-out. The pump is cycled in drain mode for 30 seconds on, 30 seconds off until the overfill switch resets or power is discontinued to the unit.
Press STOP/CANCEL to clear the display.
Even though this sounds contrary to the above, the special H2 or H3 laundry soap should be used with all H2 or H3 washers to help prevent sudszing which in turn will create an FL code.
This wouldn't happen to be a Kenmore elite calypso would it?
