Error E01 in Kandy washing machine

Error E01 in the Candy washing machine can indicate either a short-term failure or a serious breakdown. In the first case, it is enough to disconnect the device from the power supply and wait about 10 minutes, after which the code will no longer be displayed. What to do if the error does not go away? It is worth contacting a specialist to determine the causes of its occurrence and further eliminate the breakdown.

Features of the cipher manifestation

Error E01, in most cases, is issued in Kandy washing machines at the very beginning of the washing cycle. The user places dirty laundry in the drum, closes the door, but after selecting the desired mode and starting the device, the hatch does not lock. Code E01 is displayed on the screen. In models of a particular line, the error can be displayed in different ways: E1, Err1, Error1, etc.

In Candy manufacturer's technology without a display, you need to pay attention to the indicator lights. If an error is present, the light flashes once, followed by a long pause (up to 15 seconds), and the LED flashes again. Which indicator will light up when an error occurs depends on the device model. In the Grand line appliances, the washing machine displays code E01 with the “Intensive Wash” mode LED and the very first left LED in the wash time calculation display (in most cases this is the value “90”).

Models of the Smart line are signaled by the “Intensive wash” indicator and the upper LED indicating the countdown system. More often it is “90” or “Start”. In the Holiday and Aquamatic model household appliances, the cold water wash mode light blinks.

Important! The intensive washing mode is indicated by the image of a shirt, washing in water without heating is indicated by a snowflake.

Code meaning

Error E01, displayed on the washing machine display or via the display, indicates problems with the door locking. First of all, it is recommended to open and close it again. Often, users do not close the hatch tightly enough before starting, so the machine displays an error. If these manipulations did not lead to anything, and fault code E01 could not be reset, the equipment has broken down and requires repair.

Most often, the LED flash occurs immediately after the device is turned on and a certain mode is established. Much less often, the error appears at other stages and indicates the presence of the following malfunctions:

• Failure of the hatch locking device. The problem can be corrected by replacing the element with a new one.
• Problems with the control unit. It is necessary to carry out diagnostics to determine the cause of the malfunction. If the damage is serious, the entire unit is replaced; if not, individual parts must be replaced or repaired.
• Damage to wiring or contacts. The entire wire is replaced or repaired, the contacts are re-soldered.

Violation of the integrity of the wiring in the washing machine is a common problem among summer residents and owners of private houses. Also, the wires are damaged if the equipment vibrates strongly during washing. The technician can restore the wiring, and error E01 will no longer be displayed.
