I got a F06 error code on my washer the other night. In reading about this code I understand that it could be the MCU, CCU, door lock switch, or the harnesses. The machine will drain, add water, and spin for a short period of time (2 min) before the timer begins to flash the time left, and eventually it begins to beep and flash F06. I have check the bottom harness for any loose or broken wires, cleaned out the pump, and have an MCU on order. If this doesn't fix the problem, where do I go next?

Swamp ape,
You're most likely on target with the MCU Part number: AP3861856
Part number: AP3861856

As long as you're sure there are no loose wires or connections at either control board.
If the MCU replacement doesn't solve the issue, then the CCU
Part number: AP3859567
Part number: AP3859567
is the next step.

Thanks,
:) :) :)

Hello . I have sent you the failure codes for your duet, also there should be a tech sheet inside of the unit if you will remove the toe panel on the front of the washer, the tech sheet is usually on the right hand side wall of the unit in a plastic bag, this has alot of good information for diagnosing this problem step by step, it will show you how to run the diagnostics on the unit,most likely it is the mcu board by the information you have given, I hope this helps thank you and good luck !

I R & R'd the MCU and the error went away. I've put about 7 loads through it. Everything seems good. Thanks for the help.
