Whirlpool

What this code may mean.

A plain-language reading of the code — always confirm against your model’s documentation.

F3E1 means Temperature Range on compact ventless laundry towers and a steam temperature sensor cause on laundry towers.

Whirlpool stacked laundry centers can flash F3E1, and the entry that applies depends on the tower type.

What the display is telling you

  • Compact ventless laundry towers, dryer section: Temperature Range.
  • Laundry towers, dryer and washer sections: potential cause is the steam temperature sensor.

Reset first

For the laundry tower entries Whirlpool suggests a power cycle. Switch the dryer off at its breaker, or pull the plug, leave it a minute, then power it back up and check if the display shows F3E1 again. A washer control is left unpowered for 5 minutes instead.

Codes to compare

  • F3E2: appears after five consecutive loads dry without moisture sensor data.
  • F3E4: another entry labelled Temperature Range.
  • F3E8: temperature sensor on laundry towers.
