Troubleshooting
Gorenje washing machine faults range from the door not closing properly to heater failure. The appliance will signal the fault as soon as it’s detected and the programme will stop. If the fault is signalled when the washing machine is working the error code will simultaneously be displayed with flashing LEDs.
Causes of the flashes are listed below:- - One flash – temperature sensor failure
- - Two flashes – the door isn’t closed correctly
- - Three flashes – inappropriate water intake
- - Four flashes – spinning sensor failure
- - Five flashes – motor failure
- - Six flashes – heater failure
- - Seven flashes – inappropriate water outlet
Bear in mind that occasionally interferences from the environment can cause the washing machine to signal faults. Re-occurring faults should always be checked out by a qualified repair engineer.
