⚠️ Safety Warning: Appliance repair involves electricity, gas, and moving parts. Always disconnect power before working on any appliance.
Error Code: E4 Difficulty: Moderate
Problem: Water level in the drum is too high.
How to Fix E4 Error (Step-by-Step)
- Unplug the washer from the power outlet to ensure your safety.
- Turn off both the hot and cold water supply valves connected to the machine.
- Locate the pressure switch, which is usually a small, round component found by removing the top panel of the washer.
- Inspect the thin air hose connected to the bottom of the pressure switch. Look for any cracks, kinks, or blockages.
- Disconnect the hose from the switch and gently blow through it to clear any trapped debris or detergent buildup.
- 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.
- Reconnect the air hose and wire harness, reassemble the top panel, and restore power to test the washer.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
