How to Fix E58 Error (Step-by-Step)

  1. Unplug the washing machine from the electrical outlet to ensure safety.
  2. Gain access to the motor and motor control board, usually by removing a rear or bottom service panel.
  3. Carefully inspect the wiring that runs between the drive motor and the motor control board. Look for any signs of damage, chafing, or loose connections.
  4. A service would test the motor’s electrical windings with a multimeter to check for shorts or open circuits.
  5. If the motor windings are out of specification, the entire drive motor assembly needs to be replaced.
  6. If the motor tests correctly, the issue points to a faulty motor control board, which must be replaced.
  7. After replacing the diagnosed part, reassemble the washer, plug it in, and run a spin cycle to verify the repair.
  8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
