How to reset the machine

Reset Procedure for Equator / Hirundo ( EZ3612CEE / EZ2512CEE / EZ1612V )
If the door of the machine is opening you can follow the below reset procedure so that the machine will function properly but if the door in your machine is not opening you need to first get the door to open by following the procedure as stated in the link http://www.fixya.com/support/r4240518-door_not_opening_in_equator_hirundo
Resting the unit will make sure that all the memory storage in the chip will be erased and hence the unit will be ready for a new cycle.

Equator Washer dryer combo......door wont open. Finished a funky cycle drained but wont open? :(

You will have to follow the drain out procedure and then the reset procedure.
Please see the link :http://www.fixya.com/support/r4240518-door_not_opening_in_equator_hirundo

Be careful, if you try to open the door by pulling the door handle too hard it may break.
Do let me know if this resolves the problem or else I may suggest something else.

i need a diagram of an Equator EZ3612CEE door

While you may have removed the door with the hinges from the cabinet the nuts may have fallen down on the unit.
You may want to open the back panel or the bottom panel and try searching for the same, in case you need assistance mounting the bracket back on the cabinet once you have the nuts do let me know.
