When your Haier washing machine starts acting up, the first thing you should do is check if it’s displaying any error codes on its screen. These codes are the way the appliance specifically communicates what’s going wrong or what needs attention. Though they might seem confusing at first, understanding them is key to troubleshooting issues and keeping your washing machine running smoothly.
In this article, we present a complete table of error codes for Haier washing machines, along with their descriptions, possible causes, and recommended solutions. Before we dive into the table, let’s clarify some concepts that might be new or technical for you:
- Drainage: Refers to the process of removing water from the washing machine’s drum. If there are issues with drainage, water might not exit properly.
- Temperature Sensor: A component that measures the water’s or the washing machine’s interior temperature. If it’s poorly connected or damaged, it could affect your washing machine’s operation.
- Heating Coil: This element heats the water inside the washing machine. If damaged, the desired temperature might not be reached.
- Overheating: Occurs when the washing machine or a specific component within it heats up more than what’s safe or intended.
- Protection Level: Refers to built-in safety measures to prevent water damage or electrical failures.
Now that we’ve clarified these terms, here’s the table of error codes for your Haier washing machine:
