How to identify the fault code breaking?

manufacturers of washing machines to take care of that, we were able to diagnose the most common failure.To do this, put a system of special codes that the device displays in the case of malfunctions.Learn more about the meaning of the most common codes, see below.

  • codes F06 and E08 indicate problems with electricity, and broken button "Start" / "Start" or that is not locked access door.
  • If you see on the display codes E02, E04, IE, E11 and E35, means the washing machine notifies you of problems with the water supply, or set the water drainage system.It can also mean "burned" electro or loosely closed hatch.
  • error code F04 appears in several cases relating mainly to recruitment and discharge of water.Seeing her, you should check the control unit, heater, and the state of the drain hose.
  • is displayed codes F05, the F11, E03, the OE, E06, E21, E23, E24 say that there is a malfunction in the drain system.
  • Errors marked codes F01, F02, E07, E09, SE, CE, E21, E22, F63, E01, can be seen when the stops rotating washing machine drum.The reason for this may be the engine failure, the heating element or the electronic module.
  • If you see on the display one of these codes: F03, E05, E06, not E31, E32, E36, E61, E66, E71, means the device can not heat the water for washing.You should check the heating element and temperature sensor controller and a triac (semiconductor device).
  • UE error usually occurs in the display when the washing machine starts making noises during operation.Seeing this code, check the bearings, counterweights, springs, tank integrity of the drum, as well as the presence of foreign objects inside the unit.
