the Normal cycle begins fine, but am seeing “SUD” on the (time remaining) screen during the wash … please note I am using the same Tide Pods detergent as always.
Mike, according to the service manual there are a few possibilities Sud - SUDS LOCK (Overdose of Detergent detected during the Wash Cycle) The motor control unit senses a suds lock condition by analyzing the current draw on the drive motor. If “Sud” is displayed a potential suds lock is detected. This may signify a bad pump, an extra heavy load, excessive detergent, or excessive suds. • If too much detergent was used, run the unit through a Rinse/ Spin cycle then a Normal cycle without adding any detergent. This should clear the unit of the excess detergent. • Check the drain hose and make sure it is not plugged or kinked • Check Wire Harness connections to the Drain Pump, Pressure Switch, and Central Control Unit (CCU) • Check/ Clean Drain Pump Filter of foreign objects • Check Drain Pump • Check the Pressure Switch • Check CCU Hope this helps, good luck.
