Possible Causes

Incorrect moisture sensor readings, Software glitch, Faulty NTC or humidity sensor, Control board calibration fault

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect from mains before internal checks.

  • Clean all sensors: Thoroughly clean the moisture sensor bars and lint filter. Ensure the NTC sensor area is free of lint.
  • Run a reset: Some Hansa models allow a factory reset by holding specific buttons (refer to user manual). Perform a reset if available.
  • Test with timed program: Run a purely timed drying program. If it completes normally, the issue is likely with sensor-based control rather than basic mechanics.

If E17 continues on sensor programs, the control board or sensors may require replacement and calibration by a service technician.
