What this code may mean.

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

Potential cause: control communication.

About F6E4

Whirlpool lists F6E4 as a Control Communication code for laundry towers. It is shown on the dryer section and on the washer section.

Reset the dryer control

As Whirlpool puts it, resetting the control can sometimes solve the problem, much like with a computer. Leave the dryer disconnected from its power source for one minute. Then reconnect and see if the code stays away.

When the code returns after the reset, schedule service. Reminder for the washer half: its reset takes 5 minutes.
