F12 - Error related to the heater

michal9119 · Accepted Answer

In most cases, the heater itself is damaged (breakdown to ground), so replacing the heater should solve the problem. It is also worth checking the wires, plugs, going to the heater, for damage or moisture.

While the connectors at the heater do not look flooded, the heater is certainly damaged. The replacement should not be too difficult. It is enough to disconnect the wires, gently remove the temperature sensor, unscrew the mounting screw and pull out the heater while pushing the screw at the same time.

After replacing the heater, please use the temperature sensor from the damaged heater.

If it ran down the drum casing, there is a good chance that the engine received a drop of water and it would be enough for it to turn on the service and refuse to wash.

Temperature sensor installed the original one?

Kenworth 18 · Accepted Answer

The old heater can be discarded but not the sensor. If the washing machine breaks the cycle or other problems occur, change the sensor to the original one. However, if it is ok, leave it as it is, but hide the sensor. Why do you ask about springs? Washing machine jumps during spin?

Heater error and what should I do?

Jlazarow · Answer

I unscrewed the washing machine, looking from the right side of the front of the washing machine, I found what looked like a heater in the bottom of the drum housing, disconnected the grounding and started the washing program. The washing machine started taking water. What should I do now? Ie. try to replace the heater yourself, if so, how to go about it? Thank you for all the previous tips really helped, although at one point I doubted if I would get it going ...

I don't know what's wrong with her anymore. Now she did not even want to turn on after unplugging the earth from the heater. After cleaning the filters at the solenoid valve and pressing all the cubes and cables and disconnecting the ground from the heater, it finally started and took water, but it did not finish spinning and the service lit up. I noticed that during spinning water comes out from under the apron or collar. But not as many as before, because I pulled it down and cleaned it. But there is water at the bottom of the casing but I'm not sure if the casing is leaking or is it running off the flange. Now the question is whether it is really a heater ....

The leak may have soured connections. Is it damp at the connections at the heater?

Jlazarow · Answer

I do not think so. It rather ran down the drum housing ... I ordered an apron and a new heater, I will try to replace them. Yesterday I disconnected the hose from the hydrostat, that's what it's called ... And I blew on it, it clicks. I also blew into the rubber tube from the hydrostat and I feel some resistance in it, is it supposed to be like that? Does anyone have any idea what this washing machine is like? Anyway, I'm going to replace the leaking apron and heater and then we'll see ...

Today I installed a new heater and checked if the washing machine would start drawing water with the ground connected to the heater. She started downloading ?. After that, I also changed the collar and put it on silicone. Tomorrow, after the silicone is dry, I will run the entire washing cycle to check for leaks .... I will let you know if the problem has disappeared ... Thank you now for advice, it was actually not difficult.

Jlazarow · Answer

No, I put what was in the new heater with this sensor. This is important? I don't throw away the old heater anyway, so if something happens, I will take this old sensor. I looked at the entire washing machine, splashed the contacts, cleaned the can to which the hydrostatic hose goes, but in general there was no muddy place. I am still wondering whether the springs on which the drum hangs should be replaced from time to time ... I looked at the entire washing machine, sprayed the contacts, cleaned the container under the hydrostatic. I am just wondering about one more thing, should it not be appropriate to replace the springs on which the drum hangs?

Jlazarow · Answer

I am asking about these springs because it was pouring through the apron, the old silicone peeled off, maybe the drum fell slightly and the old silicone broke due to vibration and the apron became unsealed .... Just wondering if the springs do not deform and lose after some time properties

Jlazarow · Answer

Hello, I have to thank all the people who gave advice, the washing machine is running, I have removed all the faults. Finally, it turned out that it was still pouring below the bathtub, from such a black, rubber drain with a ball in the middle, attached to the bathtub with a wire. I replaced the tie wire with a u-bolt and not a drop of water under the washing machine. I am happy to close the topic and state that it is enough to have an accurate diagnosis of forum specialists and you can fix everything yourself. I encourage women to dare and try their hand at technical fields, it brings great satisfaction, and I ask men to always willingly, as in my case, give advice to women without discriminating against them immediately. Thank you very much ?
