Underrated comment lmao. Pretty much all the older gen game/pc systems hahaha. Best part is this code is a sweet cheat code I tried it on my whirlpool and it absolutely gets you into the settings menu I was sketched out lmao. Down 4 click start and boom it did a minute +- water cycle and shut off. I wasn’t having any issues with mine but had to try it lol.
Dude, your videos are probably one the best sources of actually helpful information on TH-cam. Thank you for all your free and helpful info. God bless.
I’m not sure but this made me start to cry. I feel so overwhelmed by everything! I’m 60, old, alone. Broke. My GE Top load Washer Stopped spinning. The space it’s in is so small. I have no family no friends so no one to help me move it, then watching this it went so far over my head. I feel so totally defeated. I can’t believe it took till how old I am now to learn it needs to be calibrated! I’ve never even heard of this! Sigh 😔
they seriously don't need computers in them, my grandmother had a washing machine that just had a mechanical timer in it that she used for decades and never had to enter the Konomi code on it so it could be calibrated
@@TheSimba86 yes agreed. Everything is made to fail pretty much, the month after the warranty ends by design. Corruption and waste and the quick buck rules the world.
What you probably don't know is the Clinton administration gave manufacturers a deadline to phase out mechanical timers on washers, because in thier minds it was eco friendly, basically so you can't fill with hot water, you can set it on hot, it will start to fill with hot but once the lid locks you'll hear the water sound change, that's the machine switching the hot off and on & the cold on. Thank you democrats
@@handyjayes1 yep it's called designed obsolescence. Everything made after (oddly enough) 2001 is made to be obsolete. TBH it should be illegal and criminal but it isn't 😮💨
Mine wouldn't rinse and spin. I did this then held down the pause button for 9 seconds like I seen on another TH-cam and it goes thru all the cycles now!!! THANKS!
Mine is not rinsing and spinning. I did this and it reset or recalibrated and went thru the same light cycle, just like in the video. but it’s still not rinsing and spinning. You said you did this same method with the left right and then afterwards you held down the pause for 9 seconds?? Just wanna make sure I did the process correctly. For instance at what point do I need to hold the pause for 9 seconds?
I have a Kenmore that had begun to "dance" during the spin cycle, and was just living with it. Ran the calibrate and it's a whole new machine. Thanks Derrick!
I got this whole set brand new for just $100 because the people didn't know the unplug it, plug it back in and lift the lid so many times within so many seconds trick. Now I know a new trick! Thank you! ❤️
Wish this had worked. The damn washer still keeps failing to do the final spin cycle when I select the "drain spin" option. Sometimes it doesn't spin for any cycle. Whirlpool support was amazing even though we bought it used, and they even gave us a temporary warranty, but it just recently expired. I love/hate modern HE washers!
Thank you so much! Didn't even know this was a thing. It's the unit I have my place which I'm renting and without this video I just never would have left it. Not having any issues with it but figured there's no harm in doing it.
Thanks for making all these great vids! And great job at turning your life around. Addiction is hell. It's great when men like you learn from their past mistakes and do something positive that helps other people. Great job!
Thank you! I took your advice and it helped me out. I wrote down the calibration procedure and it's next to my washer for the next time for calibration.
Thank you so much. Completing the steps on the second try, less than 6 minutes, every light except the lid lock did blink, and upon dialing to reach only the rinse light and then patiently waiting for ”wash complete”, my Amana that we purchased 5 years is working again. For some reason, no light would appear until this calibration, and we had bought this brand new with an extended warranty. Thank goodness I need not burden extended-warranty service people now.
Derrick, you are a genius! Thank you so much for your insight on the diagnostic procedure. I was almost ready to discard this Maytag! Now, it seems like it has a whole new lease on life of washing clothes! Thank you!
Wow you’re a legend. My washer it seemed like the drum was off track or something. It’s brand new and it literally was walking around the laundry room while it was spinning. Did this and it fixed it, thanks bro!
Nice! When Id pull that manual out from inside the cabinet the customer would act like I did a magic trick. Always taught them how to follow the directions and put it through diagnosis if they were interested in learning it! Love what you do, keep crushing big dog!
I changed the support rods out, but it didn't fix it, but then I remembered watching this video. Now my washer is mostly balanced again. Good shit, bro!
I have the Whirlpool version of this. I tried this & All the lights came on, then it spun the drum around for a bit, then sprayed some water as it spun. I am hoping and praying that it helps. My washing machine always gets "stuck" in rinse/ spin mode, and if I run it in any size other than small, it sounds GOD AWFUL like a grinding sound. I'm 6 months pregnant, so I can't exactly take it apart & clean it right now. But I DID stop using softener and instead started using white vinegar, thanks to you!! Next, I'm gonna buy some of the washing cleanser tabs!! THANK YOU!! You might have just saved us HUNDREDS of dollars that need to go towards the baby!!!🤑❤❤🫡
Hey, you talk and do the knob to fast for people like me, ,I had to keep going back and pausing ,but finally got it !!! Thank you for showing this and I thank God that he had me come across your video!!! God bless!! 🙏👍😀
My amana washer frequently stopped at wash light and I had to repeat the whole cycle again. I tried this and so far it has worked well. This is awesome!
I hate my washer. Just want to throw my stuff in turn the knob and let it was. These sensing prices of crap. Ugh I've got four kids living here! It just sat on the wash cycle and groaned. We almost spent $300 on a Amana repair man. Thank you. Still letting it run through a cycle but somfar all you said was spot on. The lid wasn't even locking prior to doing this. ( Not that I like that rediculous feature. ) Sometimes ya just want to throw Ina sock you couldnt find lol they are so annoying. I will never buy another one. I wash .y stuff atthe creek if I have to .
That’s a completely different beast inside the timer Consol there may be a mini manual with the protocol for that machine but I don’t think they have a calibrate function
Appreciate the info. I like old plain no computer washers but still have one of two washers like this and this info is priceless and saves frustration.
that's intresting, even we don't have here such sorts of "toploader" (ours are different, and mostly just used if there's a small space - otherwise, frontloader are common here)... looks like a cheat-code for early consoles.
If you have one of those washers. Immediately go out and find an old direct drive washer with a drum in good condition and throw that new garbage away. The new ones NEVER actually get your clothes clean, and are built so cheaply they will NEVER survive past the 10 year mark. Get a thirty year old one, clean and service it (about $70 in parts) and it will work perfectly for another 30 years.
I just bought one and had to come on here to get it working I'm gonna fix my old one of 15 yrs Caz its still great. Just Caz it stopped high spinning but I know the problem easy fix
Just stumbled upon your shorts and my washer’s been stuck blinking on “spin” for months. Have to unplug and replug the thing to reset it to start new cycles. If this works you’re my hero. I’ve got it running the cycle now, fingers crossed!
Mine did something like that. I unplugged hip checked 3x the 4th time doing that it's been running like a champ. Glad to learn there is a proper process.👍🏾
With the exception of disassembling my appliances, I deep cleaned my washer and dryer to the best of my ability with the tips you've shared. Bonus, I also used the shop vac to clean the dryer vent for the house.
I just purchased an Amana washer, and have had problems since the first day it wouldnt go through any cycles would stay on sense fill for like 10 minutes then drain and nothing so i seen your video and done exactly what you said and now im waiting im doing a test run to see if it is going to work. My water pressure is not all that great but we have never had problems with my previous washer before.
Thank you for the instructions. The beat of the mysic was a bit distracting as you talked. Any advice to repair a washer's enamel and feet to make look new?
I wish you knew how much you have helped me out man. If you are ever in sc let me know I would love to Meet ya and say thanks in person. You’re awesome thanks for all the videos and advice.
The more super duper knick knacks, the more that goes wrong! (I apply that to Cars too). I want my old uncomplicated top loader that I could run hot water into!
My nan has the one you showed that won't stop draining and refilling for like 45mins, tbf they where 400$ like 10 years ago for the washer and dryer that ISNT having a stroke.
My family had a washer we moved from Mass to Okla back to mass back to Oklahoma then to mass then Oklahoma then maine back to Oklahoma and back to maine then Oklahoma then oregon never had to calculate plug it in turn it on. Still would run today
You have to wait till the machine is full and then reach in between the tub and the body to get the booklet. So, no! you're not going to find these instructions in your user manual.

Maybe if the manufacturers didn't make it harder than cracking a banks safe to get into the diagnostics, there would be less waste.

Mine does the sane thing..momentarily then stops "DANCING" and works ok its wierd.
That whole left, right, right, left thing seem like a joke... BUT I can't doubt Derrick. He's a pro.

This video literally saved us from buying a new washer. Thank you so much!!!🎉
Ty I’ve gone thru 10 of these videos. Your the first person to say what happens thru the cycle and how long it takes
I can’t thank you enough for this video. Bought a washer off Facebook marketplace last night and thought it was broken. You’re the best.

Man you're a modern hero for many! (Even though myself don't own a washer or any appliance but I recognize a hero here and today!
This is the Komani code for these specific washers, that's really cool to learn.
