How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the machine and let it cool before opening.

Step 1 – Check connectors

  • Ensure the sensor plug is firmly connected to the wiring harness and control board.
  • Clean any corrosion with contact cleaner and re-seat the connector.

Step 2 – Inspect sensor cable

  • Follow the cable from the sensor to the board, looking for breaks or pinch points.
  • Repair or replace damaged wiring.

Step 3 – Replace sensor (for technicians)

  • If the sensor reads infinite resistance (open circuit), replace it.

When to seek service

  • If E02 persists after sensor replacement, the control board may be faulty and should be serviced professionally.
