Whirlpool Washer Dryer F5E4 Error Code

VERIFIED

Error code F5E4
Appliance Washer-Dryer Combo

Running three cycles back to back with the door never opened brings up F5E4, and START then answers with an invalid key beep.

Clearing it

  1. Swing the door open, then shut.
  2. Look around the switch and latch for obstructions.
  3. Repeat the open-and-close to be sure the switch responds.

Unload clothing right away when a cycle finishes to keep this from recurring.
