Code Meaning Possible Cause Possible Parts
E11 Fill time too long Make sure that the water supply faucets behind the washer are fully open. Check for frozen fill lines in the winter. Unplug the washer and disconnect the fill hoses from the back of the washer. Check for proper water flow through the fill hoses. If water flow is inadequate, have a plumber repair the water supply to the faucets. If water flows okay, check the inlet screens on the water inlet valve assembly. If the screens are clogged, replace the water inlet valve assembly rather than cleaning the screens (cleaning could allow debris to enter the valves, resulting in the valves sticking open and causing flooding). Check the drain hose for proper installation. An improperly installed drain hose causes fill water to siphon out through the washer drain. Also, check the drain pump for debris because items such as paper clips and coins can prevent the washer from draining properly and allow fill water to siphon out through the washer drain. If these suggestions don't solve the problem, the inlet water valve assembly probably needs to be replaced Water inlet valve assembly
E13 Water leak in the tub or air leak in the water level pressure sensor air hose Drain the water out of the washer. Unplug the washer and check the outer tub for cracks or leaks such as water dripping from the bottom of the washer tub or a hose. Replace the tub if leaking. If you find no water leaks, check the water level pressure sensor air hose for air leaks. Replace the air hose if it leaks. If the hose doesn't leak, replace the water level pressure sensor because it's not detecting the water level in the washer Outer wash tub, water level pressure sensor air hose, water level pressure sensor
E21 Drains slowly Check your house's washer drain and the washer's drain hose for clogs and clear any clogs found. Unplug the washer and check the drain pump for a clog. If the drain path is clear, the drain pump usually needs replacing Drain pump
