How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the appliance immediately and allow it to cool completely.

  • Inspect NTC sensor: Replace the wash temperature sensor if it reads incorrectly at room temperature.
  • Check heater relay: If the heater remains energised when it should be off, the PCB relay may be stuck. Replace the main control board.
  • Inspect wiring: Look for signs of short circuits or melted insulation near the heater terminals.

Because overheating can be a fire risk, do not use the appliance until the fault is fully resolved.
