Hi Gene:

I have a frigidaire front load washer model LTF7000eg0, wow what a piece.... Anyway the other day it threw a E20 code, i removed the drain cleared all the junk out of it and replaced everything. I had to remove the entire front panel to access (wondering if I didnt align something right?) now when you start the wash it will run for a few minutes and the completely shut off like it is done working when in fact in ran for only a few minutes.

Just to let you know as well last month after eating $$$$ worth of clothing I replaced the bellows, which cured that problem. We are a family of 4 with 3 dogs, that machine in its defense runs 24/7

What do you think might be the problem? Some kind of timer?

Thanks

Jeff

P.S. The refridgerator that you help me fix is still running smooth.....

Hi,

I'm not Gene, but....

This is off the top of my head as it's early yet. :)

I think F20=Water Inlet Problem—no water or insufficient
water supply.

Does you washer seem to have enough water pressure when it's filling with water?

Do you have regular rubber hot and cold fill hoses or the flood safe type hoses?

Make sure your drain hose has a air gap at the top or is not pushed to far down into the drain/stand pipe behind the washer or it could siphon the water out of the washer as it's trying to fill with water.

the eorf20 code is the drain problem, I did find an entire zipper in there with part of a tennis shoe and two pennies,lol

it does seem to have sufficient water pressure I have the stainless steel flood safe hoses on it

keep in mind the washer has been working for 2 years in the same spot, I did make sure the inlet was not clogged before I reinstalled it the other day after cleaning out the drain.

i will check the drain hose this afternoon even though I put it back the way i found it I suppose anything is possible.

let me try these few things and i will check back

I went thru the entire diagnostic test everything appearaed to work correctly. I pulled the coin cather again just to make sure i didnt miss anything. It was throwing e23 error code, i traced both wires back from pump everything seemed fine. checked volts at pump 121V and at the board 120v, tried to chech ohms on the door switch could get that to give me any reading, i am down to pump, control board or computer board, any suggestions...... thanks jeff
