Not sure what the F2 code means. But I know that lots of people have had problems with error codes. Call the main 1-800 number for Sears repairs and they should be able to tell you what the code means.

If you are looking at an expensive repair due to failure of computer parts on an Oasis, you should know that you are not alone. The appliance manager at my local Sears informed me that Sears corporate is aware that there are many problems with the Kenmore Elite Oasis washers and dryers-- especially frequent are problems with the electronics. Even if you did not buy the extended warranty, Sears will probably allow you to return the Oasis for credit towards another model at their store. You need to talk to the appliance manager or the store manager at your local Sears. If they are not helpful, call the corporate Customer Service at 1-800-927-7836. (Have your receipt handy, they will need dates, dollars, model#)

Repairs to the Oasis computer and electronics are very expensive. Parts and labor for repair of electronics on my 1.5 year-old Oasis HE washer were quoted at more than $600! Although the warranty states that no replacement will be made unless there have been several repairs to the same component within one 12-month period, my experience has been that Sears will allow you to return a bad appliance for credit towards your purchase of same or other Sears appliance.

Good Luck!

P.S. On your next Kenmore machine, get the three or five year warranty! Just consider this expense as part of the price. Today's appliances are over-loaded with failure-prone electronics. A single repair more than pays for the warranty.
