Error Code: E99 Difficulty: Hard
Problem: Incongruence between the sound and light module and the main board.
How to Fix E99 Error (Step-by-Step)
- Disconnect the washer from power by unplugging it from the wall outlet to ensure safety.
- Remove the top panel of the washer. This is typically secured by two screws on the back of the machine. Slide the panel back and lift it off.
- Locate the main control board, usually housed in a plastic casing near the front control panel, and the sound/light module.
- Carefully disconnect the wiring harness that connects the main board to the sound and light module. Pay close attention to the connector clips to avoid damage.
- Remove the old loudspeaker and wiring harness. The loudspeaker may be attached with small screws or clips. Replace them with the new parts.
- Securely connect the new wiring harness to both the main control board and the new loudspeaker/light module, ensuring all connections are snug.
- Reassemble the washer by replacing the top panel and securing it with the screws. Plug the washer back in and run a test cycle to confirm the error is resolved.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
