How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance before any disassembly.

  • Reset clock and programs: Clear any active timers or delayed start programs. Set the clock again according to the user manual.
  • Power cycle: Disconnect power for 10–15 minutes, then reconnect and reprogram the clock. Check if E14 clears.
  • Check for surge events: If E14 appeared after a storm or outage, consider using a quality surge protector in the future.
  • Control board replacement: If E14 persists and basic functions are unreliable, the control board’s timing circuitry is likely damaged and the board should be replaced.

Warning: Do not attempt to modify or repair the control PCB components without proper electronics expertise.
