Quick answer
Hot wash water on an all-in-one Whirlpool washer dryer shows as F0E4; the manual points to the water hookup.
Model note: Whirlpool reuses codes across series and model years, so F0E4 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

What this codemay mean.
A plain-language reading of the code — always confirm against your model’s documentation.
Mean
The wash water temperature is too hot.
Wash water that is too hot brings up F0E4 on an all-in-one Whirlpool washer dryer, and the manual’s first suspect is how the machine was hooked to the home water supply.
What to verify
The machine belongs on cold water, and only cold.
Installation instructions explain the water connection further.
