Kaiser washing machine errors
Modern automatic machines, equipped with a self-diagnosis option, immediately warn users of the slightest failures in the system. Washing machines with a display display information on the screen. Equipment without a display - the display blinks in a certain order. By deciphering the error codes of Kaiser washing machines, you can quickly respond to a breakdown and fix your “home assistant”. We'll tell you which malfunction is indicated by which symbol, and how to solve the problem yourself.
Codes of machines with the prefix TE in the name
If your Kaiser machine suddenly stops working, you need to find out why it happened as soon as possible. Modern technology helps the user by displaying an error corresponding to the problem. You can see what malfunction this or that code indicates in the instructions for the washing machine.
The self-diagnosis system allows you to narrow the range of possible breakdowns, thereby facilitating the task of troubleshooting.
Kaiser automatic machines with the Logic Control system (we are talking about models whose names have the ending “Te”, for example, W40TlTe) are equipped with a liquid crystal display. This is where errors are displayed. The failure code is displayed as EXX, where XX is a combination of numbers. Let's figure out what problems these or other symbols indicate.
- E01 The error informs that the door lock signal was not received. If the locking mechanism does not operate within 15 seconds, this code will light up. First you need to see if the washing machine hatch is tightly closed. Next, the integrity of the UBL is checked.
- E02 The code is displayed after the end of the cycle and notifies that the machine’s tank has been filling for more than two minutes.Perhaps the cause of the error is insufficient pressure in the house communications. Another option is clogging of the water inlet system parts. You will have to check the inlet hose, inlet valve and inlet filter mesh.
- E03 Displayed on the display when water is drained from the machine for longer than the standard 90 seconds. Be sure to check the elements of the drainage system (garbage filter, pump, pipe). They may be clogged. In this situation, washing will continue, but with the “ENDE” LED blinking. When spinning, Kaiser will accelerate to a maximum of 400 rpm; the error will “pop up” on the display after the end of the cycle.
- E04 Informs about water overflow. The code may appear on the display at any time. In this case, the wash is completed ahead of schedule and the pump is activated. The cause of the failure may be a failed pressure switch, blocking of the fill valves in the “ON” position, increased water pressure in the pipe, or damage to the control module. The test should begin from simple to complex. First, the level sensor is inspected, then the solenoid valve, and lastly the board.
- E05 Appears on the display if, 10 minutes after the start of water filling, the pressure switch did not signal that the tank was filled to the required level. The cycle is interrupted. The cause of the error may be a lack of supply in the water pipe, damage to the inlet valve or the level sensor itself, or malfunction of the control module.
- E06 Lights up if, after ten minutes of operation of the drain pump, the “brain” does not receive a signal that the tank is empty. The cycle ends prematurely. Typically, the code informs either about a breakdown of the pump or pressure switch, or about blockage of elements of the drain system, or about the blocking of the resetting valve in the on position.
- E07 The error indicates a leak inside the housing.In this case, the water collects in the Kaiser pan. A code is displayed when the tank is depressurized, the float sensor is damaged, or the integrity of the pipes is compromised.
- E08 Indicates problems with the machine's power supply. May appear at any stage of the wash cycle. Appears on the display if the mains voltage is not within the standard limits (190-265 Volts). If this is not a short-term power failure, you will have to call an electrician.
- E11 Indicates damage to the sunroof lock relay. Repairing the control board will help solve the problem.
- E21 Displayed on the display if the “brain” does not receive signals from the Hall sensor about the engine rotation speed. If this error occurs, the loop ends early. The cause may be a breakdown of the electric motor or the tachogenerator itself, as well as damage to the contacts in the circuit or an open thermal switch of the engine.
- E22 Displayed if the electric motor starts running without a command. The wash stops. The cause of an error appearing on the display may be an imbalance of the drum or damage to the electronic module.
- E31 Indicates problems with the temperature sensor. The wash will proceed as usual, the code will be displayed after the end of the cycle. You will have to check if the thermostat is working.
- E32 Indicates that the contacts of the temperature sensor are broken. It is necessary to inspect the wiring of the element and, if necessary, establish a connection.
- E42 Displayed on the display if the door does not want to open 2 minutes after the end of the cycle. Such a failure may be caused by a breakdown of the electronic module or the hatch locking device.
Most problems are easy to fix yourself. Therefore, if you notice a code on the display, you should not immediately call the technician. First you need to open the instructions, decipher the error and find out what could have caused the failure.Next, assess whether you can cope with the breakdown at home. The average person will be able to cope with replacing the inlet valve, pressure switch, hatch locking device, heating element, temperature sensor, and cleaning the elements of the drain and fill system. You will have to invite a specialist to diagnose and repair the control board.
Machine codes W43.10 or W59.10
Owners of Kaiser washing machines with the PB ECOTRONIC system will have to read errors by flashing indicators. There are LEDs on the control panel of the machines that indicate the selected washing temperature:
- 95°C (T95);
- 60°C (T60);
- 40°C (T40);
- 30°C (T30);
- "Heating OFF" (T0).
If the washing machine is working properly, only one “temperature” light is on, two lit LEDs indicate a problem with the system.
We will list all possible combinations of light bulbs and tell you what kind of failure they indicate. Other combinations of indicators not described below will indicate damage to the control module.
- T95 + T In this case, the “brain” does not receive a signal that the hatch is blocked. Check that the door is closed tightly. If yes, run the UBL diagnostics to make sure the locking mechanism is working properly.
- T60 + T The combination of indicators notifies that the blocker triac is damaged. The control board needs repair.
- T95 + T The indicators light up if it takes more than two minutes to fill the tank. The cycle will complete and the “Gotowa” lamp will flash during the wash. The cause of the error may be poor water pressure in the pipes, a clogged inlet hose, or a clogged solenoid valve.
- T95 + T60 + T The pressure switch does not transmit a signal about the tank being full after 10 minutes. after starting the cycle. Typically the error occurs when the level sensor malfunctions.The indicators may also light up due to clogged elements of the filling system. It is very rare that the control module is damaged.
- T95 + T The pump drains water for more than one and a half minutes. The washing will continue, but the machine will spin at a minimum speed of 400 rpm. In this situation, you need to look for the problem in the drain system: see if the garbage filter or drain hose is clogged.
- T95 + T60 + T30. They light up when, 10 minutes after the start of pumping water from the tank, the brain does not receive a signal that the “centrifuge” is empty. There are several probable reasons: incorrect operation of the pressure switch or pump, clogged drain hose or garbage filter. Sometimes the problem is that the reset valve is blocked in the “ON” position.
- T95 + T40. Lights up when the pressure switch reports an overflow. The code may appear if the solenoid valve is not closed, the water level sensor is broken, or the electronic unit is damaged. Perhaps it’s a matter of a banal increase in pressure in the pipes.
- T40 + T30. The thermistor has shorted. The temperature sensor should be diagnosed and, if necessary, replaced.
- T30 + T0. Informs about an open circuit in the thermistor circuit. It is necessary to inspect the wiring of the element and, if necessary, establish a connection.
- T60 + T30. Lights up if the electronic module does not receive signals from the Hall sensor about engine speed. If this error occurs, the loop terminates prematurely. The cause may be a breakdown of the electric motor or the tachogenerator itself, as well as damage to the contacts in the circuit or an open thermal switch of the engine.
- T95 + T30 + T Lights up if the voltage in the electrical network is too high - more than 253 Volts. This may be a short-term blip. If the error repeats after a while, call an electrician.
- T60 + T They inform that the engine starts working without even receiving a command.The cycle ends early. Perhaps the problem is that the drum is unbalanced (if the laundry in the machine is curled into a lump) or the control board is damaged.
- T95 + T60 + T The machine is leaking and water is collecting in the pan. In such a situation, washing stops immediately. It is necessary to find a leak - perhaps the liquid is coming out through a crack in the tank or through a hole in the pipes. It could also be a faulty float sensor.
- T40 + T30 + T Lights up if the hatch is not unlocked within two minutes after the cycle is completed. The problem could be either a broken UBL or a damaged module.
It is important not to ignore errors generated by the Kaiser washing machine, but to correct problems in a timely manner. If possible, you can repair the equipment yourself. If the breakdown is serious, it is better to entrust the repair to a specialist.
