Fault codes, also called error codes or fault codes, allow your device to automatically report an internal malfunction. Below you will find the list of fault codes for your Daewoo washing machine and their meaning: this will give you an indication to best diagnose the origin of the malfunction of your appliance.
The error code can be read directly on the front panel of your Daewoo washing machine. Depending on the model, you can read this code on a display (for example, “Err 01”) or by observing the number of LED flashes (for example: 4 LED flashes = “Err 04”).
Refer to the user manual for your Daewoo device to find out the exact meaning of the fault code displayed or the lights that flash. The number of flashes often corresponds to the error code number, but there are specificities linked to each model and brand.
ERROR CODE LE – LOCK
This fault code indicates that your washing machine has a problem with the door locking/closing. To repair your washing machine, check several spare parts such as door closer, door lock.
If the anomaly is not caused by these elements, check the electronic board of the device. If it is defective, replace it.
IE ERROR CODE – WATER LEVEL
This fault code indicates that the water level in your washing machine has not been reached. Please check the water inlet, the compression chamber, the pressure switch and the solenoid valve. If these washing machine spare parts are not the cause of the breakdown, check the condition of the electronic card. If it is defective, replace it.
EU ERROR CODE – LAUNDRY IN DRUM
This fault code indicates that you have overloaded your washing machine or that you have distributed your laundry incorrectly. This may have caused an imbalance in the drum. In this case, respect the maximum quantity of the drum and remove part of your laundry.
You can also restart a spin. Finally, check the tachometry, the electronic card and the tank movement detection system.
PFE AND OE ERROR CODE – WATER LEVEL
This fault code indicates that your washing machine does not detect water loss. Check several elements such as the drain pump, the drain circuit, the compression chamber and the pressure switch.
If the problem persists, check the electronic card. If it is defective, replace it.
ERROR CODE E2 – WATER LEVEL
This fault code indicates that your washing machine has too high a water level. Check the solenoid valve, pressure switch and compression chamber.
If the problem persists, check the electronic card. If it is defective, replace it.
ERROR CODE E5, E6, E7 AND E8 – MOTOR ROTATION
These fault codes indicate that your washing machine is having problems with the motor rotation:
- If you have a washing machine with a universal motor, check the tachometer, connections and motor carbons.
- If you have a washing machine with a Hall motor (directly mounted on the drum shaft), you will need to check the condition of the coils and magnets as well as dismantle the flywheel, check the condition of the magnets and coils.
If the problem persists, replace the rotation sensor.
ERROR CODE E9 – PRESSURE SWITCH
This error code indicates that the pressure switch on your washing machine is defective. In this case, you must replace it.
E11: Door Seal Leakage
Water is detected around the door seal, suggesting it might be worn out or not sealing properly, potentially causing leaks.
E12: Imbalance Sensor Error
The sensor responsible for detecting load imbalances is malfunctioning, affecting the washing machine’s ability to distribute loads evenly.
E13: Water Temperature Sensor Fault
The sensor that monitors the water temperature is not functioning correctly, potentially impacting wash performance.
E14: Spin Cycle Issue
The washing machine is having problems with the spin cycle, potentially due to an unbalanced load, a malfunctioning motor, or other mechanical issues.
E15: Drum Speed Sensor Error
The sensor responsible for monitoring the drum’s speed is malfunctioning, affecting the washing machine’s ability to adjust for optimal washing and spinning.
E16: Water Level Sensor Fault
The sensor that measures the water level in the drum is not functioning as expected, potentially causing overfill or underfill situations.
E17: Inlet Valve Issue
The washing machine’s inlet valve is not opening or closing properly, affecting the water supply during cycles.
E18: Internal Wiring Problem
There’s a problem with the internal wiring or connections within the washing machine.
E19: Motor Overload
The washing machine’s motor is drawing too much current, indicating potential obstructions or motor issues.
E20: Drum Brake Failure
The drum is not coming to a stop as quickly as it should after spinning, indicating a potential issue with its braking mechanism.
E21: Drum Bearing Issue
The drum bearing, responsible for supporting the drum’s rotation, is malfunctioning, potentially causing unusual noises during operation.
E22: Door Lock Sensor Error
The sensor responsible for detecting the door lock status is malfunctioning, affecting the washing machine’s ability to start or complete cycles.
E23: Internal Hose Leak
An internal hose within the washing machine is leaking, potentially leading to water leakage or spillage.
E24: Pressure Switch Fault
The pressure switch, which monitors water levels in the drum, is not functioning correctly, affecting the washing machine’s water intake and drainage.
E25: Drum Drive Belt Issue
The drive belt responsible for rotating the drum is slipping, stretched, or damaged, affecting the drum’s rotation during cycles.
E26: Inconsistent Water Temperature
The washing machine detects inconsistent water temperatures during cycles, potentially due to water heater issues or sensor malfunctions.
E27: Soap Dispenser Fault
The soap or detergent dispenser is not dispensing detergent properly, affecting the cleaning performance.
E28: Electronic Control Error
There’s a malfunction within the electronic control system of the washing machine, impacting its overall operation.
E29: Child Lock Activation Issue
The child lock feature is not activating or deactivating as expected, affecting user interactions with the washing machine.
E30: Drum Speed Variance
The washing machine’s drum is not maintaining a consistent speed during cycles, potentially due to motor or sensor issues.
E31: Water Inlet Time Exceeded
The washing machine has detected that the water inlet time has exceeded the expected duration, possibly due to water supply issues or a faulty inlet valve.
E32: Excessive Foam Detected
The washing machine has detected an excessive amount of foam during the wash cycle, indicating an issue with detergent or detergent dispensing.
E33: Drum Bearing Temperature High
The temperature of the drum bearing has risen higher than normal, suggesting potential issues with lubrication or bearing wear.
E34: Drain Pump Overload
The drain pump is drawing more current than expected, possibly due to obstructions or a malfunctioning pump.
E35: Weight Imbalance Detected
The washing machine has detected an imbalance in the load, which can cause excessive vibration during the spin cycle.
E36: No Water Inlet
The washing machine is not receiving any water from the water supply, which could be due to a closed water valve or supply line issues.
E37: Drum Blockage Warning
The washing machine’s sensors have detected a potential blockage or obstruction in the drum’s rotation.
E38: Internal Memory Error
An error has occurred in the washing machine’s internal memory, affecting its ability to store and retrieve data.
