Beko Motor Overheat / Thermistor Fault

Washer displays H3; often related to motor overheating or motor thermistor fault on some Beko models.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Blocked motor cooling, Overloaded drum, Faulty motor thermal protector, PCB misreading motor temperature

Safety first: Unplug the washer and allow it to cool for at least 30 minutes.

Step-by-step checks:

Reduce load: Remove some laundry and run a shorter cycle.
Inspect motor area: Remove rear panel and ensure motor vents are not clogged with lint or dust.

If H3 recurs frequently under normal loads, the motor or PCB temperature sensing circuit may be faulty and should be checked by a technician.
