Brand: whirlpool
Model Number: WTW5057LW0
Main Symptom: drain pump wont turn on
What happens & when: during main cycle the error codes F1E1 will trigger. Unplug for an hour and set to spin/drain it will turn on and run the pump. Not sure if the pump just needs replaced, or the error code is stuck in the system.
Error Code (if any):

With the F1E1, this would indicate a main control fault. This would indicate that the control board would be faulty and need to be replaced.

Sorry F9E1 slow drain code
Ok so with the long drain error, you would want to check for clogs in the hoses and drain pump. Also check to make sure that the pressure hose is not clogged. If all this is clear then this will likely be with the pressure sensor which is part of the board and would need to replace the board. Also, check the impeller on the drain pump to make sure that it is not damaged or loose.
Where is pressure hose? I pulled the pump, no clogs, impeller works fine… it had a cut in one of the wires, guessing due to vibration and it being on the side clip. Fixed that with splice. it does drain if I switch to spin/drain cycle. Just seems to not activate during a regular cycle.
The pressure hose goes from the main board down to the side of the tub.
