How to Fix E4 Error (Step-by-Step)

  1. Unplug the washer from the power outlet to ensure your safety.
  2. Turn off both the hot and cold water supply valves connected to the machine.
  3. Locate the pressure switch, which is usually a small, round component found by removing the top panel of the washer.
  4. Inspect the thin air hose connected to the bottom of the pressure switch. Look for any cracks, kinks, or blockages.
  5. Disconnect the hose from the switch and gently blow through it to clear any trapped debris or detergent buildup.
  6. If the hose is clear and in good condition, the pressure switch itself may be faulty. Disconnect the wire harness, remove the old switch, and install the new one.
  7. Reconnect the air hose and wire harness, reassemble the top panel, and restore power to test the washer.
  8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
