How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the unit before any inspection.
- Perform a hard reset: Unplug the washer-dryer combo for at least 10–15 minutes to allow capacitors to discharge. Plug back in and attempt to start a cycle.
- Check power quality: Ensure the outlet provides stable voltage and that there are no loose connections at the plug or outlet. Avoid using long extension cords.
- Surge protection: If E15 occurred after a storm or outage, consider using a surge protector for future protection.
- Board replacement: If E15 persists, the main control board may need to be replaced or reprogrammed. This typically requires a technician with access to Summit-specific programming tools.
Do not attempt to reprogram control boards without proper equipment and documentation.
