Off balance: an unbalanced load can lengthen the cycle and leave clothes dripping.
Door error: the door is not locking properly.
Motor speed sensing error: the motor cannot reach the correct speed for the selected cycle.
Low water flow: the washer is sensing a low flow of water.
Dispenser system problem: the detergent drawer or detergent cartridge may be clogged.
Slow drain: drain times are longer than expected, typically over eight minutes.
Control Lock is on. It is a lockout of the controls, not a mechanical fault.
Too many suds: the washer cannot spin out water with excess suds, so it extends the rinse and pauses tumbling to let the bubbles break.
