c9 means the electronics is not detecting any drum movement. check the carbon brushes in the motor this is usual culprit.

Error code E-20 means drain problem. It means that the machine is not draining water correctly. Check the drain hose, to see if it is kinked or folded over. It could also be that the drain pump or drain hose are clogged. Drain the pump (check behind the little panel at the bottom right of the machine), first draining via the small emergency drain hose if you want to avoid a large puddle.
Also get the fluff filter removed and checked.If the filter is clogged then it will not let the water to get drained. The fluff filter is behind the little trapdoor below and to the right of the drum on the front of the machine. Open the door, unscrew the filter, and pull it out. It will be covered in smelly slimy multi-coloured fluff, which you need to remove. When you remove the filter, there is a good chance that a fair bit of water will come out at the same time, so, if you can place a very low bowl or similar below the filter before you unscrew it it will save you from having to mop the floor.

make sure the drain pump is operating correctly or if so, check the motor brushes.

The siphon in the conditioner compartment is blocked and needs to be cleaned.

Completely remove the soap drawer from your machine and flip up the covered section of the conditioner compartment. The upper half has a dead-end tube which sits over a narrower tube. You need to make sure that both tubes are completely clean. It's likely they'll be gunged up with black goo (typically a mycobacterial biofilm); if you leave any of it behind it will rapidly re-grow.

Preventing the goo is a matter of regular cleaning and a bit of experimentation. Some conditioners seem more prone to it than others (especially cheaper brands which may not include additives to inhibit these growths). I avoid it by using wash powder with built-in conditioner (such as Bold in the UK/Ireland/Europe). Leaving the drawer open between washes (and the washer door slightly ajar) between washes also greatly inhibits growth of these biofilms.

Hello,

what this indicate simple mean that there has been an over flow of water into the panel(that is power control ) or there has been a loos of wire from the connection of the panel connected to one of the button .

what you are to do to fix up this problem is to unscrew (open) the washer from the stroll then clean up the the panel very well with out disconnecting any wire from it position or

from the loos of wire trace the wire down to the control button connected to the panel and fix up the loos wire back to is position (on the control button)

please this with care with out any form of this connection on the wires.

thank you.

try changing the running capacitor or stating carpacitor

c3 means you may have a leak . some models have a float switch in the base sensing water leaks.

check the carbon brushes in the motor.

can be a faulty heater or motor with an earth fault. you need a man with insulation tester to test for earth faults.

e34 is listed on the 72630 as a conflict between the 2 water level pressure switches. A simple solution can be a blockage in the pressure chamber that the 2 pressure tubes attach. a faulty pressure switch or a more likely miss reading of the level control by the electronic. You need to be able to configure a new electronic to fit it . not a diy job.
all the e3x errors relate to water level problems.

c9 means there is no motor movement, typically worn out motor carbon brushes.

Hi,

If you put your hand palm up on the lip of the inner drum and lift then drop is there a lot of movement before the weight of the tub comes on?

If there is a lot of movement (slack drum) then the most likely cause is bearing failure.

Push down on the inner drum and swing it from side to side, does it feel or sound rough?

If yes, this confirms bearing failure.

The clicking noise, if you spin the inner drum does it make a rythmic click?

Unplug the appliance from the wall socket, drag the machine out and take the rear panel off. Take the belt off and spin the drum again, has the clicking noise disappeared?

If it does then there is most likely a raised segment on the motor armature, this is not repairable and would require a replacement motor.

Let me know,if needed further assistance.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

Yes. There is a part that allows you to connect the cold water supply to both the hot and cold inlet hoses. It has worked successfully on our 6100 for 8 years or so. I think it was part of the original kit rather than a subsequent purchase - it's a Y-shaped yoke with an inlet connection and two outlets that accept the two hoses feeding the inlets of the machine. From memory i tink the situation is mentioned in the user manual somewhere.

its a draining error, check sump, pump and drain hose for blockage failing that it needs a new pump.

Make sure water drained out fully. if not clean the filter, door should themn open unless interlock is faulty...

saup box prop,, clean vith hot water in 2 min have fromt pump open and fluss aut

why is plumber telling u get new machine-- look for an appliance repair shop and have their tech look at machine- if bearings their are a few of them and replacing certain ones are not that expensive and if bearings have damaged the drum the price of fixing/replacing might be just under the price of new or replacement machine -

Remove the little 'hat' in the softener tank and clean it to remove residue.

If you are resident in UK, phone a very good supplier who has never let me down, and very cheap. Tell him Archie told you about him as normally he only sells to trade but often I recomend him. His name is Steve, and he will normall post items out.02476279856 good luck
