Hoover washing machine shows E20 and may not spin or may stop with clothes wet.

Safety first: Unplug the washer before moving it or accessing internal parts.

• 1. Redistribute load: Open the door (if safe) and redistribute heavy items like towels or bedding evenly around the drum. Remove some items if the drum is overfilled.
• 2. Run spin-only cycle: After balancing the load, select a spin-only program and observe. If it completes, the issue was likely load-related.
• 3. Check suspension: If the machine frequently fails to spin with moderate loads, inspect the shock absorbers and springs for leaks, weakness, or detachment.
• 4. Inspect tachometer and motor: As with E06, check the motor speed sensor and wiring if unbalance detection seems overly sensitive.
• 5. Replace worn parts: Fit new Hoover-compatible dampers or springs if the tub bounces excessively.
