Re: “FA” Error Code on a Whirlpool ADP6940

Thank you for your advice. This problem later evolved into a different problem where the unit would issue a series of double flashes and beeps.

I found I could reset the unit, but the problem would immediately recur. On the advice of someone I met online, I disconnected the heater and tried again. This time the cycle began normally (although it failed to complete because it detected the “missing” heater).

When I replugged the heater, the error recurred. But resetting a couple of times ended up with the machine mysteriously running normally again. Problem solved…at least for now, although I don’t feel very confident in this.

This machine sits idly for months at a time. Perhaps the cause is corroded contacts?

Thanks for any wisdom you can share. And a source of Whirlpool spare parts in Greece would also be appreciated.
