Kenmore 46462 Front Load Washer Logo

Error codes Hi! I can't seem to find my paperwork for this machine since moving and I need to know what the following error codes mean. Sometimes it stops mid cycle and flashes what looks like SUD or maybe 5UD. The other one happens more often and is a F02 error. Anyone know what these mean and how to fix? Thanks.

    Thanks! I am using HE detergent but I'll cut down the ammount. (I use the recommended ammount but I'm always up for saving money if I can get away with less!) Also appreciate the info on the F02 problem. Now I know where to start!

    My washer HE3 Quiet Pack 2, also stops mid cycle when it;s getting ready to drain and spin, Starts flashing Sud or F02. Usually have to stop it and restart it, sometimes takes a couples hours or doing this before it finally completes it's cycle only to start all over again with the next load.

    I was told the Sud means too much detergent, I am using alot less, but what about the F02?

I own a HE3 kenmore elite for 4 years now and the troubleshooting codes are: SUD When excessive suds are detected, a suds routine automatically starts. This causes the cycle to go longer to remove the excess suds. Reduce detergent amounts or use HE detergent. The F02 error I had with mine and it is a drain problem. Book says check the hose for kinks, clogged or is it more than 96 inches above the floor. On mine it was the fan pump on the forward motor that drains the washer. It was worn and not pushing out the water fast enough. You will hear a high pitched whine at the front bottom of the washer if this is bad. To reset the washer from the F02 error, select pause/cancel twice to cancel the cycle. Unplug washer or dissconnect power. good luck
