Whirlpool Whirlpool WFW72HEDW Duet Front Load Washer F0E2 Error Fix: Excessive Suds Detected

Error code F0E2 on the Whirlpool Whirlpool WFW72HEDW Duet Front Load Washer means: Excessive Suds Detected. Too many suds were detected during the wash cycle. The washer pauses to let suds dissipate and may add extra rinse cycles. This is caused by using too much detergent or using non-HE (High Efficiency) detergent in an HE washer. Reduce detergent — HE washers use roughly 2 tablespoons per load. Switch to HE-formulated detergent. Run an extra rinse cycle to remove excess suds.
