Hi, it sounds like you have a major problem with your washer. The inner steel basket has a shaft attached to the back of it that goes through the rear of the outer plastic tub and attaches to the drive pulley. More than likely the shaft has broken off, the basket alone is over $500.00. It will more than likely need the rear of the tub as well for the seal and bearing. I have seen this many times. I would recommend buying a new washer unless you have some sort of extended warranty.

Assuming you mean the hose which goes into the pump, it would be part number 8181732,

Hi
To unlock them press and hold the DRAIN/SPIN button for 10 seconds. Hope this helps....

Check on the drain valve /drain pump and test if the voltage comes to the component. If so the drain pump is not working well. You can remove and test on bench, clean and back flush to remove dirt and see for a good flow. Once confirmed refit or else the pump must be replaced if the pump is not performing as required , the coil can be faulty.
However if voltage is not present on the pump after the wash cycle and during the rinse cycle, the controller can be defective.

Hi,

"FH" is a No Water Detect error.It is an indication that you either have no water coming into the washer, or very little water at all. Check whether the water taps are turned on sufficiently, the inlet hoses are not kinked, the water inlet valve is not clogged, you don't have a siphoning issue, and/or the drain pump is working.


Thank you !!

Hi


Thanks for using FixYa. Error code F/H means no water was detected entering machine or Pressure switch trip not detected. If after 30 seconds the control does not detect water entering machine and then valves will be turned off and the error code will be displayed. It can also happen if the control has turned the water valves on and after 8 minutes the flow meter has detected 10.5 gallons of water passing through it, but has not detected the pressure switch trip, the valves will be turned off and the error code will flash. You’ll need to Press PAUSE/CANCEL twice to clear the display and then check:

• If there is no water in the unit:
• Make sure that both valves at the water source(s) are turned on all the way.
• Check for plugged or kinked inlet hoses or plugged screens in the inlet valves
• Verify inlet valve operation
• If there is water in the unit:
• Verify Drain pump operation
• Pressure Switch Hose is in good condition and properly connected to Tub and
Pressure switch
• Verify there is not a siphon problem
• Verify wire harness connections to; Inlet Valves, Pressure Switch, Drain Pump,
Flow Meter and Central Control Unit (CCU)
• Check all hoses for possible leaks
• Verify pressure switch operation
• Verify flow meter operation
• Verify CCU operation


Please do rate the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further assistance.

"F02" is a Long Drain error code. This is an indication of an obstruction somewhere in the drainage system. In most cases, the drain pump reservoir needs to be cleaned out. The following link explains how:

If you check the drain pump reservoir and the problem still persists, you may have a pump with a damaged motor/impeller, or something lodged in one of the drain lines. In particular, the drain line that runs from the bottom of the wash tub to the inlet side of the pump.

I recommend you remove the inlet hose, as well, and inspect for clogs. In is common for small garments to become lodged in this area and restrict water flow to the drain pump. Check the output drain line for obstructions as well.

It does not take much to damage this small drain pumps. The error code is generated if the drain cycle exceeds 8 minutes. So...if the impeller or motor become damaged, and the pump does not pull water at the correct volume, you may still experience the drain error. In this case, you will have to replace the pump in order to get the error to clear. The following link explains how:

All front loader have this problem. Use concentrated lemon juice to clean the boot and then you will have to leave the door ajar just a bit every time you finish washing. Sorry but this the nature of having a front loader. Also using powdered soap products will also almost completly do away with this problem.

this is a drain problem.inspect the water pump, motor coupler and the drain hose for kinks.

if softner has discharged it's probably working ok some water left behind is normal

If this is a 417 model your problem might be the pump itself. There is a pressure switch that detects whether or not there is any water left in the tub. If so, it will not go into high spin. Remove the lower panel and check the pump on the lower right side. See if there is any gunk or coins in there by removing the hoses attached to it. Have a flat pan or a bunch of towells ready to catch the remaining water from the tub. If the pump checks ok, the next move would be to check the motor controller itself.

If it is only leaking when you use warm water it is likely a leak from the delivery side of the hot water inlet solenoid. The only way to check is to remove the top and look. https://www.google.com/search?q=Kenmore+80+series+washer+92281100+leaks ..

Thats a simple one to replace. Unplug unit. Take a putty knife and release clips that secure console to top. They are located on each front corner of console. Raise lid. Unplug harness from switch. Take ground screw out that is part of switch assembly. Release plastic tab that holds switch in place and remove switch. Install and snap into place new switch with lid open. Put ground screw back in place and plug harness back into place. Lower lid and then raise and listen for clicking noise. Put console back in place. That’s it.

If this is the model ('700S' is a series name), the lid is no longer available.https://www.searspartsdirect.com/model/3fpuvflk1q-000583/kenmore-elite-79629272000-washer-partsSo best fixes would be silicone and liquid metal epoxy as needed.https://www.google.com/search?q=kenmore+top-load+700s+lid+replacementI also found this, if the 'rubber plug' is the pivot on the back edge, you could make one from a dowel and fix with epoxy.https://www.searspartsdirect.com/product/59z4rap6tv-0026-795/id-afg72909503..

Question edited for clarity. 'then', a moment in time. 'than', a comparison between one thing and another. It depends on the model, but usually related to the lid lock. Also check the breaker. Why does my washer stop working after filling with water? If the Top Load Washer stops after filling with water, be sure to check the house circuit breaker/fuse as well as the outlet and plug. Washers should be plugged into their own separate, dedicated outlet. ..
