Possible Causes

Dirty or coated drum moisture sensor bars, Broken wire from sensor bars to control board, Faulty moisture sensing module on PCB

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect power before accessing internal wiring. Cleaning the sensor bars can be done with power off and door open.

Clean the sensor bars:

  • Locate the two metal strips inside the drum (usually near the lint filter opening).
  • Use a soft cloth and white vinegar or mild detergent to scrub off any waxy residue from fabric softeners.
  • Dry thoroughly.

Check wiring:

  • Remove the front panel (if required) to access the sensor bar connections.
  • Ensure the wires are firmly attached and not broken.

Test: After cleaning and checking connections, run an automatic cycle. If E10 persists, the moisture sensing circuit on the control board may be faulty and require professional repair or replacement.
