What this code may mean.

A plain-language reading of the code — always confirm against your model’s documentation.

F4E2 lists the main heater as the potential cause on laundry towers.

F4E2 on a Whirlpool laundry tower lists the main heater as the potential cause, for the dryer section and the washer section alike.

Troubleshooting

The step Whirlpool gives is Cycle Power. A reset of the control can sometimes clear what you are seeing, like rebooting a computer. Take the dryer off its power source for one minute; the washer control needs 5 minutes. When F4E2 shows up again after that, schedule service.

Related codes

If the heater is the concern, read about F4E1, which refers to the heater or heater relays. F4E3 covers restricted air flow, and F4E6 is the drying heater code.
