Possible Causes
Using non-HE detergent, using too much detergent, very soft water with normal detergent dose, residue buildup in tub
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Do not open the door or lid while the washer is full of hot, soapy water.
- Let the cycle finish: The washer may extend rinse and drain times to clear suds. Allow it to complete.
- Run extra rinse: If suds remain, run an additional rinse & spin with no detergent.
- Use HE detergent only: Switch to high-efficiency (HE) detergent and use the minimum amount recommended for your load size and soil level.
- Clean washer: Run a "Clean Washer" or hot empty cycle with a washer cleaner tablet or 1 cup of white vinegar to remove detergent residue.
