“E3” code – Machine control is attempting to drive the motor but is not seeing any tach
response. Visual Check shows motor is not moving. (Locked or Hall Sensor fault.)
Possible causes of ‘E3’ codes:
1. Spin drum stuck – Verify that the spinner moves freely to eliminate this cause.
2. Hall Sensor fails or is loose – When the Hall Sensor fails or becomes dislodged, the control
doesn't recognize that the motor is spinning and shuts down. The result will likely be an “E3”
code in the worst case, or “SUdS” if it is only getting a partial rpm reading. Check wire
harness connector(s) to motor.
3. A poor connection – Check wire harness connector to motor. Unplug connector and pull on
each wire. If a wire connector comes loose from the plug, bend locking tab up
NOTE: If a locking tab is not properly seated in the plug connector, the terminals will not fully engage as
the connector is plugged into the Motor Terminal Block. Inspect the terminals on the motor side
of the connector. Straighten any bent terminals if they exist. Recheck the harness side of the
terminal block if any bent terminals are found. Bent terminals can indicate a problem with the
locking tab inside the plug
Reconnect harness plug to Motor Terminal Block.
Run washer through a quick service cycle (wash and spin) to check motor operation.
