F0 E5 - Front Load Washer

Possible Solutions

F0 E5 Error Code - Off Balance

You may notice the cycle time was longer than initially displayed or the clothing is still dripping wet. This is likely because a sizable unbalanced load could result in reduced spin speeds, which removes less water from the clothing during the spin cycles. 

  • If the load is not dripping wet, the cycle is finished as expected but took more time than expected to balance. No Action needed.
  • If the load is dripping, see the following troubleshooting tips. 

Is the washer overloaded?

Avoid tightly packing the load.  Clothing should move freely within the washer.  Remove a few of the items and run a "Drain & Spin" cycle to finish removing water from the load. 

Were you washing a bulky item by itself?

Avoid washing single items, especially bulky items. Balance a single item such as a rug or jeans jacket with a few extra garments and run a "Drain and & Spin" cycle.
