    This is a made in Germany, i had this for over 15 years without any issue. If it stop working, get it fixed rather than getting a new one.

    Question, my K-elite HE4 does not drain water properly; what if is not the pressure hose. What should I check next? I already changed the water pump

    Thank you very much for your video! You gave me the courage to fix my 20 years old Kenmore HE4t washer. I took the washer apart (top, bottom, and back panels). My FH/HF issue turned out to be the pressure switch. I replaced the inlet valve and flow meter, and it still didn’t fix the problem. I replaced the pressure switch, the hose was still very new looking and in perfect shape. The machine is now working beautifully!

    Absolutely the best diy video for this washer. Mine turned out to be the same hose as yours, but not a pin hole. It was partially blocked but restricting flow enough to cause the error code. This entry is packed with good information that is well presented. Thank you for saving me a costly service call.

    I had a different error code F33, but it ended up being the exact same issue. The tubing had some wear on it and wasnt providing pressure anymore. $8 for replacement from a local autoparts store. Thank you so much for your video, it was exactly what I needed!

  • @Supernaut2000

    Good overview BUT you missed the last step! In the back, where the black hose connects to the white piece of plastic, it often gets jammed up with gunk! Mine was black with gunk! I cleaned it out and the washer works fine!

  • @nicolasaddington5381

    I see quite a few comments are from many years ago. Well, the info contained in your video Houston is still valid. Have been getting an intermittent FH code for a few years but became worst over the last month. So, after watching your video I hauled the dryer off it and started following your advice. Turns out nothing was actually broken! The flow monitoring mechanism just needed to be shaken, drained and blown into. Seems it was a bit stuck, needed exercise! Also the water fill sensor seemed to have become lazy - had to exercise that by blowing into it a number of times until I could hear the micro switches engaging. Basically that was it, no more FH errors for the next six washes!! Oh and cleaning the toothpicks and dimes out of the trap by the pump was a good idea too So, many thanks for taking the time to document what you did to fix the washer. Much appreciated Merry Christmas Mike L 1Dec 2021, Halifax, Nova Scotia

    I have a Maytag with this error code. Could not believe that your problem was as simple as a hole in the hose. Mine had the exact same problem. Put some tape over the hole as a temp solution for further testing. Solved the problem. Thanks for making this video, you really helped.

      Update. After clearing the blockage several times by applying air pressure to the hose was not enough to clear it anymore, I had to take the diaphragm out (9:09 in the video) and clear out the gunk. Back in business.

    Didnt run through cycles, just gave me a new code 'dL F' Is it typical that the door lock won't release until repair is made? Just starting the process so not sure what the problem is.

    when you measure the solenoid coil with the ohmmeter - disconnect one wire of each solenoid so you measure the coil not the rest of the washer. Good video!

  • @KlasicRock

    Video really helped me. The other part that that black house is connected to. Not the piece with the red cap. The white part attached to the drum. Was caked with rust and dirt. I took it off. Cleaned it out and the machine is working like new again. This video is definitely recommended

    And sometimes if your lucky, it's just the hot water intake that gets clogged behind the filter screen into the intake valve.

  • @jot9011

    Thanks!! This video was immensely helpful. I was able to find the problem with my machine using your instruction. Like someone who replied previously, my issue was a sock stuck in the drain pump...seems to be more common than one would think. After I removed the sock, I tried going through the cycle test but still got the FH error. I then disconnected the pressure switch from the tubing and made sure it was working by blowing into the end. Reconnected everything and re-tried the express cycle... This time the machine worked perfectly...no error! The low pressure from the sock must have somehow caused the pressure switch to lock up. Some have said just tapping on the pressure switch (with a screw driver) also will free it up. Thanks again....saved me the headache of dealing with shady repair guys and likely a bunch of money

  • @danielb.587
    @danielb.587 6 років тому

    I started with the Error code FH then my control board went out a day or so later. Bought a new CB and the washer worked no error code for about a week. FH code came back so I opened the front and checked the drain to find a handful of coins( various denominations) A BIC PEN, and a big denim patch. Cleaned that out and it ran like new for about a month FH error code came back so im going to check the pressure switch now. Hopefully its just the hose. *fingers crossed* This video was way more informative than Sears Parts Direct people. THANKS DUDE!

    • @houstongrier3602
      @houstongrier3602 7 років тому

      kerry wright disconnect the hose from the back of the machine and turn house water valve on to make sure you have water coming out of hose. Some of the hoses are anti flood and will stop water from coming out

  • @julial7019
    @julial7019 7 років тому

    Any idea how to do a diagnostic on my he5t machine when I can't get the machine to turn on by hitting the "ON" button? No one I've talked to has an answer other than to replace the machine. I'm thinking that one of the two PCB's on the display panel has a bad/burnt circuit. Not sure how to test them.
