No manufacturer-confirmed error symbols are currently recorded for this exact model. This does not prove that the appliance cannot display a code or warning.

The directory currently provides no verified error-code table for this model. Check the official model manual and symptom advice; do not apply generic codes from another appliance.
This single-unit tower pairs a 4.5 cu. ft. front-load washer with a 7.4 cu. ft. electric dryer. Whirlpool confirms UV Clean Technology and Intelligent Wash & Dry; a UV-status light is not evidence of a fault code. Whirlpool product listing confirms the stated product details.
Safety first
Stop using the washer for smoke, sparks, a burning smell, damaged wiring or water near electrical components; disconnect electrical power only when it is safe. Do not remove service covers, probe wiring, or open drain components without the correct model instructions.
Quick help
| What you see | Safe next step | When to request service |
|---|---|---|
| Unknown code or warning | Copy the characters exactly, note whether they flash, and check the complete model and serial label. Match the display using Whirlpool’s model-specific literature, not only the general table below. | Request help if the message persists or the appliance is not operating normally. |
| Wash section takes too long to fill | Check the external water valves and accessible hose routing without disconnecting pressurized fittings. | The washer cannot fill after visible supply checks. |
| Dryer leaves items damp | Check the selected dry program and follow the specific tower manual for its lint-care and, if applicable, exhaust-maintenance instructions. | Repeated poor drying or abnormal heat warrants professional service. |

Common problems
What you notice: A blue light during UV Clean or a wash-to-dry sequence that seems unfamiliar.
What to check: Whirlpool says the blue light indicates its UV Clean feature is working. Do not classify that signal as an error; use the matching tower guide for cycle and dryer-care instructions.
When to stop: Stop if abnormal heat, leaking water, smoke or a persistent unexplained alert occurs.
