    Karen,
    Kenmore Elite HE3 displaying F13 error code…
    F13 indicates a problem with the dispenser motor.
    Try and press the release tab at the back of the dispenser drawer.
    Pull it out and then slide it back in.
    This may work if the linkage between the motor and the drawer is twisted.
