Clearing washing machine errors
Spare parts for household appliances
Almost every modern washing machine is equipped with a display. It makes it easier to control the machine's functions. It also visualizes errors that begin to appear with its use.
Most manufacturers' manuals provide an explanation for each code that appears on the display when the washing machine is not working properly. Even non-professionals at home can determine the cause of any problem with the machine.
But how to clear the codes on the washing machine? According to some, this can be done by resetting the errors. And here comes the main problem. Resetting the error codes does not restore the normal functions of the appliance.
It only erases the memory. Therefore, most experts advise that if you see the exact error, then you can reset it. After that, it is advisable to start the device to record the code. This way you will be able to understand what the error means.
The explanation for this action is extremely simple. Over time, the device stores more than one error. All codes remain “hanging” in the machine’s memory. When another error appears, you will not know which one is the current one.
If you want to know how to reset the washing machine's memory, look at the user manual that is designed for the respective model. There are other ways, the most common of which is to unplug the machine for a few minutes.
Also, open and close the washing machine door 6 times within 12 seconds to perform a reset. Why do you need to perform such an action? Resetting the washing machine is desirable to perform in case of incorrect start or stop during the operating cycle.
If your washing machine has a display, then it certainly has a memory refresh function. Remember that modern machines have more features and high-tech solutions. For this reason, it is a good idea to restart the system.
It's no coincidence that most technicians say that if the electronics of a washing machine break down, it's better to buy a new one. Repairing the system is quite expensive and not everyone would agree to pay the price.
Therefore, it is necessary to regularly perform preventive maintenance on the washing machine, for which purpose contact a specialist who knows in detail the device and functions of modern machines. Here is how to reset the error codes on the washing machine:
Check the manufacturer's user manual. |
Open and close the machine door 6 times |
