Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- Are you sick and tired of getting those annoying trouble codes such as F1, ul, lid, sud, F53, F58...and many more. Here is a self test for your hE washer that will first list all of the trouble codes then complete a nine step self diagnostic check of all of the washer features from add a garment to wash complete. It only takes five minutes and will save you tons of money by catching an issue early. What to do if you find an issue? Call 1-800-4-MYHOME for Sears Kennore Products and purchase a 1 year Master Protection Agreement for $220 which covers both your Oasis washer and dryer. When calling, Sears will ask if the washer is operating properly, you answer yes. NOTE THIS IS NOT AN ADVERTISEMENT I AM TRYING TO HELP PEOPLE WHO DON'T HAVE THE MPA AND WILL HAVE TO PAY UPWARDS OF $600. With the MPA you can call Sears as many times as you like to clean your washer, do a self check, and repair or replace your washer if it is unrepairable.

Don't take this down. You really showed me something interesting. Thank you for doing this and saving us all some money.
I have a Kenmore Oasis washer. I was getting the SD code and machine would stop. Right before I was going to buy a new washer, I saw your video and followed your suggestions. Amazing! $10 for Amazon parts and fixed!! Thank you so much for this. Everyone else said soap problem. Please leave this up for anyone else that might have same problem.. Thanks buddy... You are awesome.
This helped me a lot!! Thank you very much! You taking the time to make this only made you look like a person who cares about the rest of us who need some assistance and a little helpful video from nice guys who take the time, like you. So if that makes you a weirdo, may the world be full of your kind!
I’m a 63 year old woman who just fixed her washer thanks to you!
Please do not take this down. Your video was very helpful and saved me a lot of money!
Thank you so much! Great job.
Hey dude.... your video was very helpful. YOU saved me hundreds of dollars by sharing your knowledge. I had a dL, F32 and F82 error codes. As it turned out, the auto lid lock was not working. I just took a pocket knife and cleaned the lid lock unit and it works now. No need for the Sears repair guy to make a visit. Thanks again !!!
This video is 10 years old and today January 2022 ,still helps me to self diagnose my Kenmore Oasis. It did help. Thanks.
SUPER helpful video! Just finished replacing the spindle and washer hub on this exact same model which now is about 10yrs old. The instructions to run the diagnostic test were no longer in the machine (and not on Sears website) so this video was a great find. Thanks for posting it. And im glad you never took it down as you suggested many years ago, Seems like alot of us benefitted from it!
Excellent video! Many of the new machines have this mode just to help troubleshoot, and it is a huge time-saver. The key is to know how to activate it, and this video is very valuable for that. I was just able to nail down two problems with my machine that are simple fixes, but I don' t have to call Sears out to take care of either one.
Note that if you have this style of washer with no spin speed button, you do the same thing with the water level button
Very helpful video. Thanks for taking the time to do this. Believe me you are not being a weirdo you are being very articulate and taking time to explain the diagnostic procedure that is NOT contained in the owner's manual.
Not gay! You helped a struggling single dad here, THANK YOU very much!!!!
Well worth watching and learning! I was going to buy a cheap machine but because of your excellent video I fixed my Oasis (which I've had for over 10 years) Thank you
7 years later and still helping folks out. Thanks! fixed the problem!
Dude,
Mission accomplished. Your video helped a lot. I had a code that showed up but I knew I had a problem when mine quit draining. Mine had a bad drain pump.10 years of heavy use not to bad. This was my second repair in that ten years. The first repair was the tub bearing went bad after five years. My advice for anyone who owns one of these washers is if it is more than a year old is to disassemble the tub (remove the inner tub (what your clothes go into) from the outer tub ( the big tub the inner tub is in) and clean the entire tub. There is a plastic cover over the pumps intake that should be removed and cleaned as well. I was disgusted of how filthy mine was underneath the inner tub. If you have one of these washers and it smells bad then it is probably very dirty in places you can't reach without disassembling it and no amount of clean cycles or cleaning products can clean one of these machines due to their poor design. If you're not equipped to dismantling it ( big nasty job) then you better off to buy a new machine because I doubt you would ever find a repair man to clean one of these dirt traps to a sanitized state for less than you can buy a new machine and besides that even if you do get it cleaned it's just a matter of time before it gets filthy again. I apologise for the long comment but thought it might help you in return and maybe some of your viewers. Thanks for the very helpful video.
Time to modify it with a filter you can get to?
Very helpful bro. When it comes to repairs like this there's never to much that can be Said unless it's wrong info. Thank you.
@@lancedenney2408 ?? What filter??
By the by is there a video on Disassembly for this job u speak of??
Thank YOU!!! You're NOT a weirdo. This washer drives me nuts with F1 and UL. You helped me so much!
What does F1 mean?
@@bobbytoca "F1" means the sensor that determines water level isn't working properly. F68 is essentially the same code indicating the sensor is returning "out of range" values. The "F1" usually occurs when the washer is initially filling the tub under the rotating basket with water at the beginning of a wash cycle, or when beginning a rinse and spin when refilling the tub after having drained it. Cycling the stop/start as if you're adding more clothes will usually get past this when there's more water in the tub. The sensor is an air pressure sensor on the control board with a clear plastic air hose that goes from it to an "air dome" on the bottom of the fixed tub. If there's a leak in the system, or if the hose is pinched, or if the air pressure sensor on the board is bad, you'll get the "F1" error. First step is ensuring the plastic air hose isn't clogged by blowing through it. That sometimes fixes the problem. The hose being pinched, cut or the air dome being damaged is quite rare unless other work on the washer has damaged them. Care must be taken during tub strut replacement (right rear strut in particular) to avoid damaging/pinching the hose. Even drive shaft and bearing replacement shouldn't harm the hose or air dome. If you can blow air through the hose, and that doesn't fix it, it's very nearly always the air pressure sensor on the control board which requires replacing the board module. A remanufactured board costs about $100, with new ones going for $150 and up to over $200, depending on who you buy it from. It's worth ensuring the hose is clear and not damaged first. The average DIY'er who can take care when unplugging and plugging in a half-dozen or so cables from the board can do the job; there are locking tabs holding cable connectors in place to prevent vibration from loosening them. You need to push gently on them to allow the cable to unplug.
The air pressure sensor itself can be removed and replaced on the control circuit board, but that's not a job for the average DIY'er (part costs about $25). Requires someone experienced with printed circuit board repair that can pull and replace integrated circuits on ESD sensitive boards without destroying the entire board by lifting/burning parts pads or ESD (electrostatic discharge) zapping ESD sensitive parts. ESDt damage can be done without even feeling it. A guy with a soldering gun who's soldered wires together isn't qualified to do the job, and you'll end up replacing the entire control board after wasting time and money on the part.
You are not a weirdo. Spent hours reading how to get this washer to run again. No where in the book does it say to hold the spin cycle down. thank you !!!!!! I was crazy to think I had to pay someone to come here and then they would just try to sell you a new washer. THANK YOU!!!! YOU JUST MADE MY WEEKEND MUCH BETTER.
Great Video.... We have this Washer and after 8 years, it started to act up. I reset it by pulling the plug overnight. Then that snapped it out of the F Error. I then researched it on you tube and listened to your video. I will try the self test. This is the kind of Video that saves the consumer money. Great Video!!!!!
Thank you for not deleting this video. You just helped a 71 year old Grandma fix her washer. ❤
This video doesn't have nothing of lame, it is HELPFUL ! I really appreciate that you took some of your time to share this, I happen to have one of this washers! Thanks again, and it is great that you want to help others, God bless you!
10 years later and this just helped me with my Kenmore. Thank you so much!
This has saved me so many times. Coming back to it a 3rd time over the last two years
Leave it up please! You were a huge help. Now I can run through diagnostics before calling Sears and maybe they can bring a part with them instead of the usual "we will deliver it to your house then you call the service guy to return and install it two weeks later". They have driven me nuts over the years with their inefficiency. I could fix things myself but am disabled now so I can only do light quick repairs. Hope you're not so hard on yourself anymore, never worry what others are thinking because most people think good and kindly of others, justidiots are vocal and mean.
Please don’t take this down. I had this machine for a lot of years and never noticed the clean washer button and thanks to you... I cleaned it! First time since I bought it! THANKS THANKS THANKS
Alprazolam, your video likely saved me $300 in repair bills! Last week my wife indicated there was a problem with the lid (the left bracket came off), and she thought this kept the washer from draining properly. I never knew how to run the diagnostics, and once I did, this pointed me to the source of the problem (F72). Turned out some material was lodged in the drain pump. Your video was a lifesaver!
I cannot thank you enough! It worked for us. We were getting an LF error code. It would just stop at 38 minutes. Read some trouble shooting tips and tried everything i could find but it didn't help. Ran the washer through your suggested cycle and "wha la" Im on our third load now. Thanks a bunch!
Hey bro... That was an AWESOME share of info...I had the F1 code stopping the washer and I went thru your system here and it fixed me right up. I appreciate it very much so!!!
Thanks for doing this. I have this model and love it but at 12 years, I can hear the spin cycle upstairs. I clean it monthly with vinegar and baking soda....never had an odor. However, the noise is leading me to believe the bearings? are shot! Dryer still working very well. You are not a weirdo . I was looking for the capacity size of my washer when I came across this....very helpful.
Thanks for leaving this video up. Almost 10 years later, It worked for me! THANK YOU!!!
Dude... Very helpful. You are doing MANY homeowners a huge favor by doing this!
9 years later - still helpful! Thank u totally what i needed 2 see
Dude. This was NOT a "gay" video. This was very informative for me. My Mom has the same washer (with glass lid) and at least now I can start to diagnose the problem on hers. Thanks a lot.
Leon Lecky m,
Same here man I’m glad you made this video 👍
you say "gay" like it's a bad thing. My gay ass appreciated this video.
there NO problem you helped a lot
Thanks for video
Please don’t take this video down, for the past couple of years this video helped me multiple time, is not lame at all! Thank you!! 🙏🏽
Thank you a million times over, having trouble with an "Ld" error and have taken the washer apart, for the first time, to see if anything was clogging up the drain. I've had Sears out 3 times for the same "Ld" problem. 2 times there was a problem the other time and this time found nothing wrong. Wanted to get to the diagnostic mode so I could see if I reassembled everything correctly. Your video is the greatest for this - thanks for taking the time to make and post it.
This video was a big help to me!!! Please leave it up for all the other clueless people like myself. THANKS AGAIN :-)
Thank you so much. I watched the video and realize my washer was not snipping it was stuck. So I stuck my hand in an forced it and it started to spin. Fixed!!! Don't know why it was stuck but it saved me a service call. Thank you.
I called Sears here in Onatio, Canada to ask about the Protection Agreement and the lady said that before they issue the agreement, they have to send out a technician to make sure that the item is currently in good shape and running normally. Thanks for your video....very helpful. I just ran the tests on my machine and in the morning I will run the machine to see if it helped.
Please do not take down. This has helped me 9 years later!! Thank you!
My washer is still broken but your commentary cracked me up so I don't feel as irritated as earlier! Lol!
This is a great video. Never take it down. So helpful and your are hilarious!
Thank you!!! 9 years later and you taught me something. I was about to call Dick van dyke.
Please NEVER delete this. It tossed the code I needed and so far all is well. THANK YOU ☺️
Great video. This is my exact machine and I want to run a test before I go through the trouble of pulling it away from the wall to open the top. Thanks much!!
really liked quadfloppers idea to stabiized tub with 2 inch foam on all four sides and the other comments and your video was great... thanks again...! ... really
Great idea to tell people they can test the machine by themselves. My 24/7 washing son just showed me it was making a motorized pumping sound when he hit start or stop. It’s testing itself
I REALLY found this video HELPFUL thank you. Mine is the same and the door latch doesn’t lock; and this doesn’t really happen often to me but when I put laundry detergent; and barely anything into the water port and it just doesn’t work.
Great Job. Thank you so much,, I did not have any hope to fix it,, SEARS wanted a $100 just to diagnose the problem,, before watching your video , then I was able to fix it after that ,, again thank you so very much.
Thank you so much for the information . This was one step the repairman wouldn't show me . My warranty is now out and my washer is acting up. Again thank you !!!!
Wow. Thank you. And thanks for me reading the comments and discovering the service manual inside the machine....
You not only saved me money, but my sanity....ty sooo much for posting this! I really didn't want to contact Sears, as they rip you off. I did contact a repair man and he said it was probably the motor and that I should junk it. Glad I didn't listen. So again, TY!!!!
A lady got rid of washer and dryer for $50 to me cause she thought it they where broke i ran this test and fixed the washer the dryer was fine whe was getting the UL code. Thanks you for this great video best fifty bucks ever spent
thanks a million...this was very helpful! Mine seems to be stuck on C8...so I will now go and research that.
What did you find?
Same here
Thank you, please don't take your video down. You put this video up in 4/11, I just saw it 11/2019 as I am looking for solutions for my Kenmore Oasis 2009 model with uL code. You had the solution. Surely it will help someone else, even 100's with the same error code and save them money as it did for me with no warranty insurance because of the age of the machine. Never had any problems with it until now. Thank a million for your video.
I am very happy to have this video. I have a similar issue I picked up a wash machine off the curb. I am newly moved in house. I’m looking for a washer and dryer so this helped me and no it wasn’t in Lane video and I am visually impaired and I thankful for this video.
OMG!! This video is not lame at all!!
You just made my day! I had alredy given up my washer, because I could't make it work and.. suddenly.. I found your video and: Voilà!! Now works great!
Thank you SO much for posting it and for your time!!
I really appreciate it! :)
Thank you so much for showing me how to test my washer myself. Please don't remove this video ever!
Thanks a lot. My wife watched this video and now she wants me to get some pills that look like that damn START button.
Great video and so glad you didn't take it down! Thanks so much!
I was angry. My washer was going to be dead. I’m glad I watched this!!!! My washer is alive thanks to you haha cheers ☕️
This is the best video on the internet! Thank you for the info and the laughs!
Thanks, I'm glad my video is helping people. From your post I can safely assume that your washer will consistently become caught in the uL self correcting process. Try the self test and jot down any "F" codes that pop-up after the self test begins. If you don't get any "F" codes and the washer completes the diagnostic self test without getting held up try the following. Run a clean washer cycle w/ bleach then unplug the machine for 15 mins or so.
Thank you so much!!! 🙏🏻 help me a lot!!! God bless u!
First of all, thank you for the video. But my washer shut off after C1. I guess call a repair man?
I know this tutorial is 9 years old but I have the same washer and dryer but have kept them in excellent condition. and just recently I've been getting those weird codes. The one thing you didn't explain is what do we do when we get those codes.
Thank you for the video. This helped but I need to learn more about this now. Also, the Start button doesn't always work now. have to press it several times for it to start.
Sometimes have to press it harder than usual. It's obvious the button is going bad so I will probably have to repair it myself or track down a new instrument panel.
Thanks again.
Man just did the test mine won't go passed the C8 code !!! Your video helped!! Thanks
Thanks for posting bud! Just helped my 72 year old mom out. Blessing!!🙏
Dude you were a life saver man.. Sears was gonna charge me like 500 to fix it... Thank you so so so much
Thanks. Now I know how to do a troubleshoot. I have an F1 problem that I'm trying to fix my shelf.
hey this was a great video... you got my washer back working after i had taken it apart thinking my pump was clogged and whining alot... i had no lights and nothing worked until i held down the spin button for five seconds and the lights came on and now i am running it thru the quick wash... still has the whining noise... probably need a new impeller... but you saved me calling a repair person... and i will run this whining little machine till the pump impeller fails or fixes itself ha ha ... please keep the video up because i know you will help more people and put more up...you are doing a wonderful service ... thanks very much !
Many thanks for this video. I just fixed my Kenmorer Elite Washer. The basket was not floating. I removed the agitator and lubricated the shaft. After two days installed the agitator and ran the automatic diagnostic. The washer is now working perfectly.
Nooo don’t take it down !! You really helped me thank you!!
Thank you so very much for posting this. My machine was giving me F51 code.
found this video and tried it. Now my machine is working...for the time being anyway. So Thanks again. Big Help!
Alprazolam,
Thanks for the vid. I know you joke about it being long and lame, but it is actually helpful. A friend just gave me one of these washers for free. So before I go moving out my old 1973 Kenmore and hauling this thing in place, I've been searching reviews and videos to find out a little about it. I appreciate your time doing this.
Dude you definitely showed me something I ordered a new lid latch it did the same thing with my old latch and the one I just ordered what u showed me on ur video reset my washer and running good as new I appreciate it dude I know what you talking about u saved me a lot of money thanks again dude!!
I just found your video and wow wow wow thank you so much for the information. I am so glad you didn't take it down. THANK you for sharing this information.
They wanted to charge me $180 to do this to reset the washer for me thank you for the video. Keep up the good work 👍👍
Wow!! Thank you so much. I was gone buy a new washer because it kept saying f1 then cut off over and over. So I did the step by step and it worked. You saved me 500.00 Thank you so.
This helped me out. Trying to help out my neighbor who has this washer. Thanks for posting this. It was GREAT!!!
Thank you for NOT taking this video down!! Very helpful for me.
Wow I learned something thank you so much, single mom trying to save where I can! 🙏 you are not a weirdo you're awesome thnx!!
Thankyou for the video. It helped me restart my washer! I saved the video in my playlist, so please don't erase it. Just incase I need it again!
"ld" stands for long drain. The washer is taking too long to drain water from the wash tub. The machine is basically telling you that despite the programmed drainage length it is exceeding that time. I would check your drain hose to make sure it is not kinked or overly curved. Also, disconnect shake and reassemble the drain hose. You want the drain hose as straight as possible.
THANK YOU. Even 9 years later, this is helping people!
I want to say thanks for this video.i had this problem today and a reset of mine like you done saved me a repair bill.
Thank you for this video! My washer is showing the UL error code. I remembered the last repair guy reset it, but I couldn't remember how he did it. Your video was definitely a kind and worthwhile thing for you to do. :)
Priceless! I get to wash it work, while opened!... Great editorial!
Great video - it was a big help. I cleared coins from the drain pump, and this self test diagnostic was necessary to reset the machine and get it going. It worked perfectly after removing the coins and running the diagnostic. THANK YOU!
So true. The frustrating part of the recall was many of the people who are elegible for a free ECU and control unit did not receive the recall notice due to a clerical error. Your advice is fantastic. Totally call with your serial number ready and inquire about the recall, even if your machine is working fine. You're entitled to a free replacement regardless of the operation of the machine.
Thanks for not taking this down, it helped!
Every /DIY/ out there thanks you. I am doing these steps as I watch this video. I do not necessarily have a issue, but its good to know how to do this when I do. I have its twin dryer right here next to me. I am going to play with it next.
Thank you! Just about ready to buy a new washer before I found your video!
Thank you man!!!. You just saved us some hundreds of dollars for sure. We just ran this test as our last resource before calling the Sears technician and it seems that it worked as some kind of resetting. Our washer is working again. Thanks, Thanks Thanks!!!
Thanks for sharing!!!!! Big help!!!!
Thank you for posting this video...not lame at all! I bought this type washer used and I don't have a manual so I have been trying to figure out why the machine is not draining and came across this useful information to at least run a diagnostic.
This was very helpful. I have the same type of washer and like you, paid Sears more money than necessary to come and fix it. I'm replacing my own pump that I ordered off Amazon for $70. Sears was going to charge me $300 for parts and repair. Thanks again!
THANK YOU SOoooo much for this!
Just helped a family of 5, housemom fix washer!!!!!🎉🎉
Video was great, thank you for making it. Never new about self test, you saved me an ass load of money!
Thanks for the vid, Probably saved me $$$. My washer was out of cycle and this got it back in. The only dfferences were the code that comes up after pressiing Start and I had to press it 2x. Thanks again.
Thank You so much I was getting really aggravated with the uL code and getting caught in the final rinse. Ran the test in your video and it's working again. We've had to replace two pumps on this thing in the first year, but warranty is out and was hoping to not have to buy a new one already. Thanks Again!
Thank you. I didn't know there a self test! I combed the manual but don't remember seeing anything like that. Very cool!
Great helpful video.Thank you so much for taking the time.Thank you
Thank you sir very helpful appreciate the info
YOU'RE NOT A WIERDO, YOUR A HERO! THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH. THERE IS NO WAY I WOULD KNOW THIS.... THANKS AGAIN!
This video just now helped me get my washer going again! So glad you left it up!
Thank you for the lengthy video, I will try mine today. It constantly gets unleveled taking 5 hours to wash one load. Towels are starting to be a huge issue from 1-2 added to a load to a whole load of towels, Im so hoping this is an easy fix. God Bless people like you, thank you for sharing.
Glad you didn't delete this video. It's the only thing that worked to get my washer going again. Thank you.
Thanks for NOT taking this down. I always try to fix things myself first.
