Possible Causes
Stuck-on heater relay on control board, Shorted heater element, Faulty NTC temperature sensor reading low
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the washer and allow it to cool before servicing.
- Test heater element: Check resistance to ensure it matches specifications and is not shorted to ground. Replace if shorted.
- Test NTC sensor: Measure resistance at room temperature and in warm water. If readings do not change appropriately, replace the sensor.
- Inspect control board: Look for a heater relay stuck closed (contacts welded). Replace the main control board if the relay is faulty.
- Verify operation: After repairs, run a warm or hot cycle and confirm that water temperature is normal and E62 does not return.
