The F0E4 error code on your Whirlpool washer means it sensed water that’s too hot during the wash cycle.
The most likely reason for the F0E4 error code on your Whirlpool washer is:
- Incorrect Hose Connections: The cold water inlet hose might be connected to the hot water faucet, and vice versa.
Solution:
- Turn off the washing machine and unplug it from the power outlet for safety.
- Locate the water-inlet hoses at the back of the washing machine. There should be two hoses, typically one red and one blue.
- Check the faucet handles connected to the hoses. The cold water faucet typically has a blue handle, and the hot water faucet has a red handle. Make sure the cold water hose is connected to the cold water faucet and the hot water hose is connected to the hot water faucet.
- If the hoses are reversed, swap their connections.
- Secure the hose connections properly, hand-tight. Avoid using pliers or wrenches to overtighten, as this can damage the hoses.
- Plug the washing machine back in and turn it on. Run a test cycle to see if the F0E4 error code persists.
