This is typical when there is a problem with the speed sensor. The unit will start up but stop after a few seconds because although it did send power to the drive motor it didn't receive a signal from the speed sensor. The sensor is usually to the right of the front roller. so you'll have to remove the motor cover to get at it. It will be a small device mounted to the frame aiming/pointing at the front rollers pulley to read its magnet every time it spins around. There is a small magnet mounted to the rollers pulley that spins around as the roller spins. The speed sensor should be close enough to pick up on the magnetism from the magnet in the roller. Check to make sure it's about a credit cards length away from the magnet and not to far away and also that it is plugged into the lower control board. Hopefully this is all it is and you'll be good to go.

WHAT IS ERROR CODE UL

Unbalanced Load

If uL (unbalanced load) appears in display, the load is out of balance. The washer is running a load-balance correction routine. Allow the washer to continue. If the dial is flashing and the washer has stopped, redistribute the load, close the lid, and press START/PAUSE.Dec. 14, 2019

How do you fix an e5e communication error on a frigidaire washing machine?

Hey friend, thanks for your inquiry!

I see your Frigidaire washer is displaying an error code "e5e". However, it appears "e5e" is an invalid error code. Let's attempt resetting your range. You can do this by unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker to the off position for roughly ten minutes. This usually clears false error codes.

If resetting the power does not correct the issue, could you please inform me of the new error code or if your dishwasher continues to display "e5e" you may want to seek assistance from a professional for proper repairs. -Matt

Model Gw709AU

When you start your machine is the water just go stop go stop,
Just wait for the machine to display an error code on the wash progress lights and beeps constantly.
It could be the Rotor Position Sensor, out of balance switch or lid magnetic reed switch.
Your error code will determine this.
Is your machine beeping & showing a weird pattern of lights on the wash cycle, It is displaying an error code,
To read this error code you start at the red spin light & work to the left only add up the lights that are on. Red spin light = 1 2nd rinse light =2 1st rinse light =4 last wash light=8 4th wash light=16 3rd wash light=32 2nd wash light=64 1st wash light=128

I have a Fisher and Paykel Smartdrive 9 washing machine that won't fill. It starts then stops and continues to do so, then stops altogether and beeps. Can anyone help??

The error code is displayed when its beeping.
I don't know the error code, so It can only be three things,
Out of balance switch,Lid magnetic reed switch,Or Rotor position sensor,Your error code would help me work out witch one of these are faulty. to work out your error code look at picture below.
Add up the lights that are on.

My tunturi T 20 gets error code E 7. it starts up, and after 5 or 10 seconds, it stops and flashed the error code. I have tried the recommended solution, which is to unplug the treadmill, wait a minute to...

From time to time, error codes will pop up on your treadmill. It just takes a quick second to clear the error log and get the treadmill up and running again.
1.When the treadmill is not in use, press the "Stop," "ENTER" and "QUICK START" buttons in rapid succession. The "RESET" button can also be used, in place of the "Stop" button.
2.Press the "ENTER" button three times to access the treadmill's error log.
3.Press the up or down arrows to scroll through the error codes, if necessary for club or personal logging purposes.
4.To view the treadmill's odometer reading when a particular error code was elicited, press "SELECT" while a particular error code is displayed.
5.To clear the error log, press "QUICKSTART" for a minimum of four seconds while viewing the list. Prompts will appear on the display and let you know when the log has been deleted.
I hope you find it very helpful.
