Quick answer

F4E5 on Whirlpool laundry towers: drying fan cause and the manual's reset.

What this code may mean.

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

F4E5 lists the drying fan as the potential cause on laundry towers.

F4E5 appears on the dryer and washer sections of Whirlpool laundry towers, and the potential cause given is the drying fan.

Cycle power

Whirlpool says a reset can sometimes solve what you are seeing, much like restarting a computer. The dryer control panel must be disconnected from power for one minute, while the washer control panel is left for 5 minutes. If F4E5 returns afterwards, schedule service.

Related codes

F4E6 is a Drying Heater code on the same towers, F4E4 concerns low or no line voltage on standard dryers, and F4E1 covers the heater or heater relays.
