Possible Causes

Failed display PCB, Loose ribbon cable between UI and main board, Moisture ingress into control panel, Stuck or shorted buttons

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer before removing the control panel.

Step-by-step checks:

  • Dry the panel: If the panel has been exposed to steam or spills, allow it to dry completely. Do not use the machine until the panel is dry.
  • Inspect ribbon cable: Remove the control panel and check the flat ribbon cable between the UI and main PCB. Ensure it is fully seated and not damaged.
  • Check for stuck buttons: Press each button individually to feel for proper movement. Clean around buttons to remove detergent residue.
  • Visual inspection: Look for corrosion or burn marks on the UI board. If present, replace the display/control panel assembly.
  • Further diagnosis: If E15 persists with a known-good UI, the main PCB may be miscommunicating and require replacement.
