You should check the hot/cold water from wall to the inlet of washing machine, make sure it all are corrected. I came across the case that those hose were reversed from the first installation but the owner was never use hot water until the next owner faced the issue. Else, the control board need replaced.

SOURCE: UL Code

Solved the unbalanced problem - open the top of the machine (press in with a flat putty knife about 3" in on the front on each side while lifting up as there are 2- 1" wide catches). Once both sides are unlatched, raise the lid then slightly lift the rear of the lid so that it fits into the curved part at the top of the hinges then open all the way - tape the lid to the top so it doesn't flap about and scotch the lid to keep it from falling back down on you. Now, look around - see all that rust?  The rust has fallen into and gotten underneath one or more of the 4 white plastic suspension "ball joints" which have probably totally dried out by now from their factory grease because of the water, bleach, and rust particles.  Having someone help you, simply lift up on one of the 4 corner suspension rods - gravity and weight is all that holds them down. The white ball will lift out of the socket and still be attached to the rod. Clean out the rust, lightly sand the "socket" with emery cloth, then slop in a fingerful of grease. I used automotive wheel bearing grease with graphite in it. Also scrub off all embedded rust on the white plastic ball. Lower that corner back into the newly cleaned and greased socket and repeat for the other 3 corners. Now when you move the tub around notice how the balls pivot in their sockets like they are supposed to. When they were dry and rusty they wouldn't move enough to allow the tub to twist like it should so it slammed around.  Now, shake your head in disgust that after only 2 years there is so much rust that you wonder if it will make it another year before falling apart, close the lid, and try another load.  That totally solved my off-balance problem where even a single handkerchief would give the UL error. It is still a finicky machine, but at least once again works like it did when new.

Most likely the RPS sensor or the control board. Originally they had trouble with the RPS sensors.

SOURCE: Washer wont fill with water/clothes dont get clean

Actually the machine is working like it is designed. When the correct soap is used, these machines clean clothes better than the old style. Try using a major brand of soap like Tide, Bold, or Cheer. Make sure it has the HE design on the bottle. This means that it is made just for the new High Efficiency machines. Also make sure you don't use to much. Read the directions. If this is done correctly, I'm sure you will find that it does clean great. I was like you when I first saw one of these new machines. "These is no way you can clean dirty and I mean dirty clothes without enough water to cover them. Well since, I have became a believer. They have put a lot of thought into designing these things. They had to of, for them to clean as good as they do.

How do i slove E2 error on my scanfrost washing machine

To solve the E2 error on your Scanfrost washing machine, you can try the following steps:

1. Check the water supply: Ensure that the water supply is properly connected and turned on. Make sure there is sufficient water pressure for the machine to operate.

2. Clean the filter: Locate the filter on your washing machine and remove any debris or lint that may have accumulated. A clogged filter can cause the E2 error.

3. Check the drain hose: Ensure that the drain hose is not clogged or kinked. Straighten any kinks and remove any blockages if necessary.

4. Check the drain pump: The E2 error can also be caused by a malfunctioning drain pump. Inspect the pump for any blockages or damage. If needed, clean or replace the pump.

5. Reset the machine: Turn off the washing machine and unplug it from the power source. Wait for a few minutes, then plug it back in and turn it on again. This can sometimes reset the error code.

6. Contact customer support: If none of the above steps work, it's best to reach out to Scanfrost customer support for further assistance. They may be able to provide specific troubleshooting steps or arrange for repairs if needed.

Remember to consult your washing machine's user manual for any specific instructions or warnings before attempting any troubleshooting steps.

Whirlpool model wfw9050xw00 error code F9 E2

Hi, the E2 F9 error means that the communication between the pump and the control board is failing. It could be a bad wire connection between the pump and control board, or your main control board is bad and needs to be replaced. First you'll want to check for a clog in the drain. You can easily youtube how to.
Best of luck.

F3 E2 error code on my Maytag washing machine

I just had the same problem with my MayTag washing machine - F3 & E2 error codes.
I cleaned out the drain trap then proceeded to remove the top and rear panels to check the Temperature Sensor. The sensor was tested with an Ohms meter and found to be working properly.
I went over the wiring from the Temp Sensor and found that both black wires had been 'cut' under one of the zip ties near the bottom of the washer.
I had to reconnect them with marretts and presto; the washer works perfectly again. If you encounter this same problem - be diligent in going over the wiring. I missed it the first time around.
It's an easy fix for anyone who can strip a wire of the plastic coating.
Good luck :)
