Amana Washer F08 Error Code

The motor has stalled or is drawing too much current.

Common causes

  • Overloaded washer (too many clothes)

  • Faulty motor or control board

How to fix it

  1. Reduce the load size and run a smaller cycle.
  2. Check for objects caught between the tub and basket (like small clothing).
  3. Listen for unusual noises during spin; if belt is broken, replace it.
⚠ When to call a pro: If the load is balanced and the error repeats, call a technician for motor or control board testing.
