Motor Locked Error

SeverityHigh

What does it mean?

"The motor is unable to turn the drum."

Common Causes

  • Overloading, coin trapped in drum, or heavy items straining the motor.
  • Temporary sensor glitch or wiring issue.
  • Control board communication failure (if persistent).

How to Fix It (Step-by-Step)

1

Immediate Action

Reduce load size. Manually rotate drum to check for trapped objects.

2

Perform a Hard Reset

Turn off the machine and unplug it from the wall for at least 5-10 minutes. This clears the capacitors and resets the control board logic.

3

Check Connections

Ensure water inlet hoses are not kinked, the drain hose is clear, and the door is firmly latched.
