What is Washing Machine Error Code
Finding the right Washing Machine Error Code for your model can be quite a task as the codes vary quite a lot between manufacturers.
Typically your codes would be A1 through A12 or E1 through E14.
To try and list all the error codes would be such a task to undertake I wouldn’t get time to do anything else.
So let’s just take some examples of the most common washing machine error codes and try and decipher what they mean and how we go about fixing them.
OK I’m going to take the most obvious Error Code E1.
This is possibly one of the most easiest codes to fix. In most washing machines this code E1 referrs to time out on fill.
Simply put this would mean that the water solenoid valve has failed. Although the inlet valve might still be energised it might not be taking water in.
This is probably because the valve plunger has stuck due to limescale build up or just general wear.
One thing to remember is, if your machine gives an error code E1 or in the case of washing machines with out a display a beep or flashing light, it may not necesserily be the inlet solenoid that is at fault. Over looking the obvious thing here could prove costly so always check that the water is turned on fully don’t just look at the isolating valve and assume you have good water flow, check it physically.
