F5 error code after washer has filled up with water?
After machine has filled up with water and is starting the wash cycle f 05 error code comes up. Went through diagnostic test in the manual and goes through c:00-c:08 with no problem. Try to wash a load, still comes up with f 05 code. The manual says it is a water temperature sensor error, but there is no heating element present.?
ANSWERS:
According to the manual, that washer takes in hot and cold water and adjusts the ratio to achieve the desired temperature, so it doesn't need a heating element. Sounds like you need to replace the temperature sensor.
It could be that the lid lock sensor is wet, or dirty. I opened it up while it was going to add a garment. Then it wouldn’t stop F05, and washer wouldn't even do anything except shut off after I turned it on! Then, I noticed it was making a faint tapping sound by the lid lock. I opened it up and listened closer, then realized it was coming from that area. I cleaned off the sensor with a dry towel, on both the lid and the sensor on the inside of the washer where the lid lock clicks. PROBLEM SOLVED!!!! Cost: ZERO!!!!
