Possible Causes

Faulty diverter valve coil, Blocked diverter valve, Loose wiring to diverter, Control board output failure

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance and close the water tap before internal inspection.

Step-by-step checks:

  • 1. Locate diverter valve: Some Ikea washer-dryer combos use a diverter valve to control water flow for drying condenser cooling. It is usually near the inlet valve or sump.
  • 2. Inspect for blockage: Remove hoses from the diverter and check for scale or debris. Clean thoroughly.
  • 3. Test coil: Measure resistance across the diverter coil. An open circuit indicates failure; replace the valve.
  • 4. Check wiring: Ensure connectors are tight and wires are not damaged.
  • 5. Control board: If the valve is good but not being energized, the PCB output may be faulty and require technician diagnosis.
