Despite the fact that Daewoo washing machines are not very popular in the Russian Federation, they go on sale, and some buyers choose them.
These washing machines are reliable, but sooner or later they still break down, like others. That is why many owners are interested in how to repair Daewoo washing machines with their own hands.
Daewoo washing machine errors
The manufacturer has provided a self-diagnosis system in washing machines.
Washers on electronic control, having found a problem, report it, displaying fault codes on the scoreboard. And Daewoo semi-automatic washing machines signal a breakdown by flashing lights.
Consider the main error codes and the reasons for their occurrence.
OE error
The essence of the malfunction is that the CM does not drain the water. This can be caused by a failed drain pump (pump) or damaged wiring and contacts going to the pump.
It is also possible that the drain filter and other elements of the drain system are clogged. In addition, the water drain hose may be pinched or incorrectly connected.
IE error
The failure is that the water does not enter the tank or is poured too slowly. Sometimes this error does not indicate a breakdown: the IE code can occur if you simply forgot to open the valve that supplies water to the system from the water supply.
If there is water, then its pressure may not be enough for a normal flood of water. It does not hurt to check the mesh filter on the inlet hose and the hose itself too – there may be blockages in it.
A less likely, but possible cause of the error is a breakdown of the water level sensor (pressure switch).
It is possible that the solenoid valve is broken or the water intake hose is frozen.
UE error
The code says that the drum is out of balance. The most likely cause of the error is a lump of stray laundry. The code also lights up in cases of incorrect installation of the CM (unevenly, not in level).
A rare but possible cause is a violation of the integrity of the counterweight.
LE error
It speaks of a hatch not fully closed or a breakdown of the locking device (UBL). The door could squint (curtain wear), or the UBL failed.
Error E8
Fault code E8 means a load sensor failure, so the Daewoo washing machine does not work and the drum does not rotate. The sensor needs to be replaced with a new one.
Error E9
These symbols on the CM Deo screen indicate a breakdown of the water level sensor (pressure switch) or level switch. You need to check the sensor nozzle and the tightness of the connections.
The pressure switch itself could break – then it needs to be replaced.
Error H6
The code symbolizes an open in the electrical circuit of the heater. It may mean a breakdown of the heating element – in this case, the heating element needs to be replaced.
Important! If you have a Daewoo bubble washing machine, you are not afraid of the last breakdown. Bubble type machines are not equipped with a heater, so there is nothing to break in this case.
Notice to users. Air bubble machines first entered the market under the Daewoo logo and are still the leaders in sales of this type of machine. The most demanded model in the Russian Federation is Daewoo DWF-806WPS. They also do not have such breakdowns as the lack of spinning or draining water..
Frequent malfunctions of Daewoo machines
Based on the errors listed above, you can immediately determine the most vulnerable points of the SMA of this brand. Usually, owners of Daewoo washers turn to workshops with such problems:
- Electronic board failure. Faults confirming a breakdown can be very diverse – from stopping the wash to running the program too long. If the Daewoo washing machine does not spin, it may also indicate a breakdown in the electronics.
- Level sensor failure.
- Clogged water filter.
- Temperature sensor malfunction. It is accompanied by poor heating of the water and a stop in the washing mode.
- The drive belt has worn out (often due to a pulley breakage or factory defect).
- TEN fails. Usually due to a large layer of scale or corrosion.
- The hatch is leaking due to the fact that the rubber cuff bursts.
The breakdowns considered are the most typical, and it does not matter what type your Daewoo washing machine is – with a vertical or horizontal load. These nodes are vulnerable to all types of CM.
Experts also refer to the weaknesses of Deo machines as a drum, which wears out over the years, rusts, and suffers from too hard water.
Causes of breakdowns
If you have chosen the German quality Daewoo SM, pay attention to the reasons that most often cause malfunctions. If you exclude the influence of these factors, there is a chance to extend the performance of your washing machine:
- Natural wear and tear of components and assemblies.
- Poor water quality.
- Power supply problems.
- Poor quality powder.
Do-it-yourself repair of the most typical Daewoo malfunctions
Below we will visually look at the instructions with photos and videos on how to proceed if you decide to carry out repairs yourself.
Checking and replacing the pressure switch (level sensor) in a Daewoo machine
If water does not enter the machine, or this process is too slow, check the water level sensor. Proceed as follows:
- Disconnect the SM from the mains.
- Remove the top panel from the machine body (cover). It is attached with two bolts on the back of the washer.
- After unscrewing the bolts, slightly push the panel back, removing it from the body of the machine.
- In many models, the sensor is located on the wall of the SM, not far from the top cover.
- Having found the sensor, remove the pipe from it, which is fixed with a clamp – for this you need to unclench this clamp, armed with pliers.
- Replace the old hose with a new one. Lightly blow into it.
- If the contacts work, you will hear clicks. Their number depends only on how many water levels are provided in your CM.
- Inspect tubes for damage. If required, they must be replaced. If the tubes are dirty, just clean them. If the tubes are stuck, then it is worth changing the sensor itself.
Cleaning the filling system of a Daewoo machine
You can clean the water intake system in 2 stages: washing the water inlet filter and the inlet hose itself. These works are carried out in the complex as follows:
If the problem is not solved, then further self-repair consists in replacing the inlet valve of the Deo washing machine.
Other breakdowns that we talked about above are eliminated in the same way as in machines of other brands.
