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

First, ensure the washer’s power cord is pushed firmly into the wall outlet.
Test the outlet itself by plugging in a different small appliance, like a lamp or phone charger, to see if it has power.
If the outlet is not working, locate your home’s main electrical panel (circuit breaker box).
Look for a circuit breaker that has tripped. A tripped breaker will be in the middle position, between ‘ON’ and ‘OFF’.
To reset the breaker, push it firmly to the ‘OFF’ position first, and then flip it back to the ‘ON’ position.
If the breaker trips again as soon as the washer tries to start, there may be a more serious electrical issue with the appliance, and it should be left unplugged.
Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

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