F3E2 — Inlet Water Temperature Fault

What does F3E2 mean?

This fault is displayed when the inlet thermistor, which measures the temperature of incoming water, is detected as either open (no electrical connection) or shorted (incorrect resistance). This impacts the washer's ability to accurately regulate water temperature.

• Faulty inlet thermistor (temperature sensor).
• Loose, corroded, or damaged wiring to the inlet thermistor.
• Main control board issue affecting thermistor reading.

Click steps to track your progress.

1. 1

   Unplug the washer from the power outlet before inspection.

2. 2

   Check the wiring connections to the inlet thermistor for looseness, corrosion, or any visible damage.

3. 3

   Refer to TEST #5: Temperature Thermistor (page 6-12) for specific checks on the thermistor component.

4. 4

   If wiring is secure and intact, the thermistor itself may need replacement.
