Evan - For model number WM3488HW

February 20, 2025

Howdy, mine is the washer dryer combo unit, I’m getting an FE error code and the drain pump filter seems clean and clear and the clothes haven’t dryed since I got this unit; i moved into an apartment and it came with. What parts should I get and instal to fix the FE code and also what parts should I buy to fix the heating element?

Hello Evan, Thank you for your inquiry. The FE error code is displayed when the amount of water in the tube is more than required for the load and is often caused by an issue with the water inlet valve or water level pressure switch. You can test the valves and switch with a multimeter. For the dryer not heating, we would recommend checking the heating element, safety thermostat and thermistor, which you can also do with a multimeter. Good luck with your repair.

Removed the top of the washer by removing the 4 back screws and 2 small brackets.

I only disconnected the power button and was able to rest the panel on top of the washer. The rest of the washer cam ... Read more
