Error Code: FC E1 Difficulty: Easy
Problem: The appliance could not connect to the router. This could be due to a connection timeout, poor signal strength, a failed router, or an issue with the Wi-Fi module in the appliance.
How to Fix FC E1 Error (Step-by-Step)
- First, verify that your home’s internet service is working correctly on another device like a smartphone.
- Check the location of your Wi-Fi router; move it closer to the dryer if it is far away or obstructed by walls.
- Unplug both your internet router and your dryer from their power outlets.
- Wait for 2-3 minutes before plugging the router back in. Allow it to fully restart, which may take several minutes.
- Once your internet is confirmed to be working again, plug the dryer back in.
- Follow the appliance’s specific instructions to re-initiate the Wi-Fi setup process and connect to your network.
