How to Fix FC E0 Error (Step-by-Step)

Press the ‘Cancel’ or ‘Stop’ button to attempt to clear the fault.
Unplug the washer from the electrical outlet or switch off the corresponding circuit breaker in your home’s electrical panel.
Leave the washer without power for at least 5 minutes to allow the main control board to perform a hard reset.
Restore power by plugging the washer back in or turning the breaker on.
Select a new wash cycle and press ‘Start’ to see if the code returns. If it does, there may be an underlying hardware issue requiring a service.
Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
Check for simple blockages (lint screen, drain path, or filter) and clean anything you find.

Still Not Working?
If the replacement part didn’t fix the issue, you may have a wiring problem or main board failure.
