The Daewoo Group was established in 1967, and within several years it turned into a major South Korean conglomerate. It consisted of more than 20 divisions. The Group was dismantled by the local government more than 15 years ago, but several divisions still exist and work as independent companies.
Today household appliances, as well as air conditioning units under the Daewoo brand are sold by the Daewoo Electronics. The company makes an emphasis on genuine usefulness to the customer, so Daewoo washers can boast many contemporary technological features, including smart detergent system and steam wash.
Error displays and causes of errors
| Error display | Details |
|---|---|
| E9 | This error occurs when the water level sensor frequency is over 30 KHz or below 15 KHz and also when the frequency is increased suddenly by more than 1.44 KHz in four seconds after filling up water. Water level sensor hose is off the position. (This feature will be applied later after review in the future) |
| dE | This error occurs if the door lock is not set to open or close when the door lock solenoid is operated more than 10 times. This error is cleared when the door is open. |
| LE | This error indicates that the door opens during the operation of the washing machine. Procedure to handle this error Close the door then the lock is engaged and the course continues |
| SE | This error indicates that the safety switch is open right before entering the spin stage. |
| QE | This error occurs when water is not drained for more than 15 minutes. |
| IE | This error occurs when the water level sensor frequency does not change by more than 0.08KHz for 10 minutes after the start of water filling, and also when the water is not filled up for 60 minutes. Procedure to handle this error Open and close the door, check the water valve and water pressure, and press Start/Pause button, then the error is cleared and water will be filled again. |
| UE | This error occurs when the unbalance switch is activated a third time after performing the unbalance operation (water fill + wash) twice during the spin stage. Procedure to handle this error Open the door, arrange the contents evenly, and close the door. Then the error will be cleared and spinning will be performed again |
| E5 | (DC-Link High Voltage) Error In case DC-link voltage to IPM increases to 450V or higher Motor operation is stopped and 'E5' is shown in display window. Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power. |
| E6 | (EMG) Error In case current detected with EMG port is of 20A or higher Motor operation is stopped and 'E6' is shown in display window. Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power. |
| E7 | (Direction) Error In case signal of Hall IC is different from the predicted signal according to direction of rotation Motor operation is stopped and 'E7' is shown in display window. Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power. |
| E8 | (Initial Operation Fail) Error In case input signal of Hall IC is abnormal due to problems in motor connection, etc. Motor operation is stopped and 'E8' is shown in display window. Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power. |
| H2 | Washing temperature sensor open/ short In case washing temperature sensor is defective or not connected Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power. |
| H4 | Washing temperature sensor overheating In case temperature detected by washing temperature sensor is 95ᴱ or higher Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power. |
| H5 | Water temperature error in wool/ delicate course In case water temperature in wool/ delicate course is 45ᴱ or higher Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power. |
| H6 | Abnormality in washing heater Within 15 minutes after heater operation begins; In case standard temperature is of 42ᴱ or lower: If temperature does not increase by 2ᴱ or more In case standard temperature is higher than 42ᴱ: If temperature does not increase by1ᴱ or more If temperature falls below standard temperature by 2ᴱ or more due to re-supply of water, etc., standard temperature is reset as the current temperature and error check time of15 minutes is reset. Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power. |
| H8 | Washing heater overheating In case washing heater temperature increases by 5ᴱ or more within 30 seconds when there is no water in tank, etc. Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power. |
| b1 | Motor alignment error This error occurs when the alignment of the motor at the initial stage of motor operation is against the logic. |
| b2 | Motor speed control error This error occurs when the difference between the current speed and target speed is greater than 120 RPM. |
| b3 | Low voltage error This error occurs when the DC-LINK voltage is lower than 140V |
| b4 | Motor startup overloading error This error occurs when there is no hall sensor input within 400 msec at motor startup due to overloading or motor lock. |
| E1 | Water level detection error 1) Conditions of Occurrence ῡ In case water level is below reset or overflow is detected in line test mode 2) Water supply motor is kept on until water level falls below reset. 3) All LEDs are turned off and 'E1' blinks in 18:88 display. 4) Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. 5) Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power. |
| E2 | Overflow error 1) Conditions of Occurrence ῡIn case water level in water tank is above overflow level due to continuous operation of water supply valve 2) Water supply motor is kept on until water level falls below reset. 3) All LEDs are turned off and 'E2' blinks in 18:88 display. 4) Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. 5) Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power |
| E4 | Water leakage during washing 1) Conditions of Occurrence ῡIn case water level falls below re-supply even after 15 times of re-supply prior to finishing of water heating 2) All LEDs are turned off and 'E4' blinks in 18:88 display. 3) Error buzzer alarm is sounded for 10 seconds per every 10 minutes. 4) Error display is cleared when turning off/ on power. |
