Possible Causes

Wheel encoder disc dirty or damaged, Wheel motor sensor wiring loose, Faulty wheel motor sensor, Main board reading error

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn OFF the mower and secure it before removing wheels. Avoid contact with blades.

Steps to check:

  • Remove wheel: On many Worx models, the drive wheel can be removed by taking out the central screw. Pull the wheel off to expose the encoder area.
  • Clean encoder: Look for a slotted or magnet ring encoder on the motor shaft. Gently clean away grass and dirt with a soft brush.
  • Inspect sensor: Check the small sensor board near the encoder for damage and ensure its connector to the main harness is secure.
  • Reassemble and test: Refit the wheel, tighten the screw, and run a short test. Observe if E10 reappears on the same side.

When to call a technician: If cleaning and reseating do not resolve the issue, the wheel motor assembly or main board may need replacement.
