What this code may mean.

F7EC is listed for front load Whirlpool washers. No cause is given, but the help text offers two things to check.

Is the washer overloaded?

Avoid packing the load tightly. Clothing should have room to move freely in the washer, because overloading adds wear to the machine and to the garments.

Cycle power

Disconnect the washer from power for 5 minutes. A plugged-in washer simply gets unplugged and plugged back in afterwards.
