Cause

Error codes E90, E91, E92, E93 and E94 indicate that the washing machine has detected a communication or configuration problem within the electronic control system.

The most common causes are:

• Temporary electronic communication errors
• Power supply interruptions
• Control board communication faults
• Corrupted electronic configuration settings
• Internal electronic component failure

When the electronic modules cannot communicate correctly, the washing machine stops operation and displays one of these error codes to protect its systems and prevent incorrect programme operation.
