Error codes F13, F14, F15 are typical for Ariston typewriters of the Margarita 2000 (EVO-I) lineup. While electronic models show an error on the display or scoreboard, an electromechanical CM indicates a malfunction code by blinking indicators.
Therefore, with an F13 error, the indicator flashes 13 times intermittently. In this case, the control selector will rotate in a circle.
What do the codes mean
The Ariston washing machine gives an error F 13, F 14, F 15, which means a malfunction in the drying operation – this mode may not turn on at all. The reason is the failure of the temperature sensor, or a violation of the connection wiring.
How to fix this and solve the problem at home, read below.
What to do with a mistake at home
Please note that error code F13, F14, F15 does not appear in Hotpoint Ariston washing machines.
Let’s figure out how to fix the problem and reset the F 13, F 14, F 15 error.
We list the possible breakdowns and options for their elimination at home.
Drying in the washing machine Ariston runs continuously
- See if there is a contact in the CN1 connector, which is located on the connection board. If it is broken or moved away, return the connector to its place. If it is out of order, burned out – replace the connector.
- Check the quality of the connection and the operation of the level sensor. Replace device if necessary.
- Is the fault in the connection board? Then it is better to replace it with a new one.
Dryer not working
Possibly broken wiring.
Inspect the contact between the electronic controller and the drying heater. Then check each element individually. If there is a malfunction, a replacement is needed. And if it’s a broken connection, pull the connector back into place.
The connection of the temperature sensor with the drying system is broken
What you can do:
- Inspect the connectors leading from the temperature sensor to the heating element.
- Check if the temperature sensor is working. If the device is out of order, we will tell you how to change it.
Replacing the temperature sensor
If you checked the temperature sensor and it is faulty and the error is still on the panel, do the following:
- Before starting work, disconnect the Ariston washer from the network.
- After unscrewing the screws, remove the top panel of the machine.
- Open the heating chamber by first disconnecting the wires and unscrewing the bolts.
- Pull off the rubber seal, open the heater cover.
- Remove the old sensor and install the new one in the same position.
If the recommendations helped to remove the error, everything was done correctly. The Ariston washing machine will work normally.
