Possible Causes

Shorted motor windings, Faulty motor triac or inverter on PCB, Loose motor harness, Overloaded drum causing stall

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Disconnect power before inspection.

  • Reduce load: Remove some laundry and attempt a spin-only cycle to rule out overload.
  • Inspect motor and harness: Access the drive motor, check for burnt smell, discoloration, or loose connectors.
  • Test windings: Measure resistance of motor windings and check for shorts to chassis ground.

Because E50 often indicates electronic drive failure, board-level diagnosis is best left to a professional.
