F21 Error Code (Long Drain)
The F21 code means your Whirlpool washer is taking too long to drain the water out. Most of the time, something is clogged in the drain filter — like a coin, hair tie, or sock. Cleaning the filter usually fixes this, and most people can do it in under 20 minutes.

Washer Not Agitating
If your Whirlpool top-load washer fills with water but the agitator does not move back and forth, the most common cause is worn agitator dogs — small plastic pieces inside the top of the agitator. They cost about $5 and most people can replace them in under 30 minutes. It is one of the easiest washer repairs there is.
