How to Fix E91 Error (Step-by-Step)

  1. Power down the washer completely by unplugging it from the wall outlet.
  2. Access both the main control board (usually at the bottom or back) and the user interface board (in the top console).
  3. Carefully inspect the wiring harness that runs between the two boards.
  4. Look for any signs of pinched, broken, or disconnected wires.
  5. Reseat the connections on both ends of the harness to ensure a firm connection.
  6. If the wiring looks good, the issue is likely one of the boards. Replacing the user interface board is often easier for homeowners.
  7. If replacing the UI board doesn’t solve the issue, the main control board will likely need to be replaced.
  8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
