Do you know what this error code means and how to fix. Washer works 1/2 way through cycle thn stops and beeps showing this code. Thanks.
Just take off the bottom kickplate (3 screws on the bottom). You'll see the pump front and center. Twist the front face of the pum slowly to the left. All the trapped water will flow right out towards you. There could be a sock or some other debris there. Unclog, screw that faceplate back in and start it up.
The repair man came, charged me for a hour serice call and left in 5 minutes. He deduced that it was draining fine and to call him once an error code registered and he would be back - obviously for another service call. He said that if it is the pump he would fix it for under $300 otherwise, I should buy a new machine. What a rip off! Ran a couple of loads and got a "SUD" error code - followed your directions and the machine is back on line. I uncloged a pen from the pump that was preventing the pump impeler from spinning.
Thanks so much for this advice. I opened it up and sure enough, found a sock clogging it.
You just saved me a ton of money on a service call - thank you!!

This worked incredible. I will clean this little trap. You would not believe what was in there. How did it ever get in there?? This saved me a few hundred dollars in a service call. Thanks to who ever posted this fix!!!
Wunderlichma, thank you! I just spent a very satisfying friday night following your instructions, and fished out an entire cupful of bits of bath mat rubber backing. Well worth the time spent! Your clear, simple, strp by step instructions were perfect, down to the 3 screws on the kickplate, even! THANKS!
Are the 3 screws on the bottom in the front or the back?
You save me from a $120 service call! I found an infant sock down there which smelled real bad. The washer hadn't been draining consistently and came up with the SUDS error. Thanks again
THANKS Wunderlichma!!!!!!!!!! found my little ones sock in there.
Many thanks! Found 1 bra pad, $1.35 in coins, two earrings backs, and a bunch of rusted hardware. The screws are Torx #20. Again, many thanks!
Awesome, this helped but to anyone out there I had to continue up the drain to totally fix it. I found a sock in the housing mentioned above, but still had SUD after. I then took off the pump (1 screw) and then the bellows on the bottom of the tub. It was plugged right at the inlet from the tub. You couldnt see it even with the pump off. I had noticed when I got the first sock the water wasnt draining very quickly. When I took the bellows off the bottom of the tub a flood of water came out. So the solution above got me on my way, so many thanks, but if anyone still has SUD try taking the bellows off too and look for an obstruction there. CHEERS!!!
uhmm... Many people mention socks getting caught in drain filter. How does a sock even make it out of the tub into the trap in the first place. I dont see any gaps or holes big enough for a sock to escape through.
it worked... found and remived a mussing sock and niw washing as usual. thank you
Worked great. Had some serious buildup down there. Took all of 30 minutes to do it and run a rinse/spin cycle.
After I tore apart the door lock assembly I ran into this thread. Found a piece of material and that was it. Thank you for posting.
Cleared the drain in under 15min. Thanks! Heads up the faceplate screws are star heads.

The SUD message relates to overdose of detergent detected during the Wash Cycle. This may signify a bad pump, an extra heavy load, excessive detergent or excessive suds. If too much detergent was used, run the washer through a Rinse/Spin cycle, then a Normal cycle, without adding any detergent. This should clear the unit of the excess detergent. Check the drain hose and make sure it is not plugged or kinked. Good luck
No solution yet...having SUD and F35 error codes. Have cleaned all mentioned tubes, cleaned drain plug on bottom...awaiting a pressure switch...but don't know what else to try.
Works!!!!! found a five dollar bill and my wife's long lost diamond ring!
Found the three screws at bottom of washer and in the trap i found a sock causing the 'SUD" error. Many thanks for this tip. Before I removed bottom panel the drain in the washing machine itself underneath the rubber seal at position 6PM I also found three socks ha! Everything works perfect now. I now use a mesh bag for washing the socks to avoid this issue.
I'm still getting error sud and f02 after cleaning everything out - any other suggestions?
If you open back of washer there is a service technician manual tells codes an possible reason and how to fix
Sud code and subsequent F02 code on GHW9400PW4 Whirlpool Dute HT was caused by a clogged AIRTRAP, part # 8181731. When removed, cleaned out, and put back in, the washer drained and spun as new.
You access the AIRTRAP from the rear of the washing machine.
Oops, meant to type Whirlpool Duet HT
Where is the air trap. What does it hook up to? Thanks for the reply.

Same problem here. Trying the solution offered as I'm writing this.
We already tried running the machine empty, without adding any soap. Each time it stops and either says "F" or it says "Sud". There is nothing in the filter trap and I can hear water draining although it isnt draining it all. It leaves several inches in the basin even if i reset it over and over till it completes the cycle. Any ideas? I have tried turing it to drain/spin, but sme result. Help!!! Thanks
I'm having the same issue. Every load I do takes 1 hour and 45 mins also. Ricidulous. I'll try the drain/rinse suggestion with empty load. Additionally, you might try unplugging the washer for a minimum of 1 minute. It's suppose to reset the washer.
I did all the items listed here and I stil have the "SUDS" error, should I replace the motor or sensor? Hanks.

How do I reset the washer, unplugging doesn't work.
Dear Angie:
Thank you for your Post. To reset the washer, you need to unplug the power for a minimum of one minute, but no more than 5. Sometimes you may need to unplug the unit a second time. If the error code persists, you may need to schedule a service call. Please email us at [email protected], with your name, phone number, street address, zip code, model & serial number with date of purchase, and a brief description of the issue. We look forward to your reply.
Thank you.
