This fixed my SUDS and F35 codes! IS NOT FOUND ANYWHERE ONLINE!

Hi! so excited! NEW method to try before spending $$$$ on pressure switch!!!

(jump down to capitol letters to skip entire scenerio and read what we did to fix the SUDS and F35 code on Maytag, Whirlpool, and Kenmore front load machines!)

2 yrs ago I replaced the expensive pressure switch in my front loading Maytag 5000 series washer... That fixed the problem!!

(Kenmore and Whirlpool machines of same manufacturing years are all the same as Maytag)

Fast-forward 2 years to now...

SUDS then F35 again!!! GRRRR!!! I have been busy reading EVERYTHING online to avoid paying for that part again...

Used vinegar trick with no luck.

Then I tried the trick where you take off the tiny hose on the pressure switch, and spray electronic cleaner (very short spritz) into the hose opening and the two connection parts. Was feeling optimistic about that trick and wished I knew of it the first time it broke two years ago.... NO LUCK!

With six adults in one house and laundry piles EVERYWHERE because of my stubbornness to buy another pressure switch for 6-8 weeks.....

I finally broke down and bought it on ebay.

Re-modeled the whole laundry room and finally got the washer back in and guess what??? IT STILL DIDN'T WORK!!!

We got lucky the first time fixing it I cant imagine we get lucky again so I already made plans with two sellers from craigslist to buy a used working washing machine...

As the contents of our laundry room have been spread all over house because of remodeling; we were looking forward to getting house back together now we have to wait longer!!!

I am in my bedroom and hear my boyfriend fiddling with it, which progresses to screaming at it, then I hear pounding

(apparently he was trying to get the WHOLE SOAP DISPENSER DRAWER OUT... HE WALKED AWAY !#^&@@ OFF AND A COUPLE OF MINUTES LATER OUR ROOMMATE STARTS FIDDLING WITH IT... HE HAS A LOT OF PATIENCE (THANK GOODNESS) AND GOT THE WHOLE PART OUT...

HE TOOK IT APART SLOWLY AND CAREFULLY AND CLEANED ALL THE SOAP THAT HAD BEEN CAKED ON...

HIS DESCRIPTION WAS: "IT WAS SO FREAKING BUILT UP THERE WAS ONLY A TOOTHPICK SIZE HOLE THAT WAS NOT BLOCKED!!"

"AND IT WAS JUST NASTY WITH TONS OF SLIME AND MOLD!!! BASICALLY COMPLETELY BLOCKED!!!"

I'M NOT SURE HOW TO DISASSEMBLE THE SOAP DISPENSING DRAWER, BUT CLEANING IT MAY JUST SAVE YOU $$$$

My name is Amanda and I've never wrote on one of these help/fix websites... But to be honest I have benefited from many, thanks to others caring enough and taking the time to help someone else.... Then again, I've never had anything to inform anyone of anything I had not already read online.... I am a slow typist and this took me over an hour so Please let me know my time writing this was helpful or fixed your problem??!! It will make my day!

to take the soap dispensing drawer you just push down on the grey bar at the left and it should pull right out

They removed the part that that drawer goes into. The dispenser housing.
