E1
The E1 error code indicates a heating issue with the NTC thermistor wiring being the major culprit. This component is crucial for regulating water temperature within the machine.
You can check the thermistor to test the connection on Beko washing machines. At normal functioning, it should register 4700 ohms at 25°C
Possible causes
- Faulty NTC thermistor
- The thermistor itself may be damaged or malfunctioning.
- Damaged wiring
- The wiring connecting the thermistor to the control board could be loose, corroded, or broken.
- Control board issue
- In rare cases, the problem could lie with the control board itself.
Troubleshooting the Beko Washing Machine E1 Error Code
- Check the thermistor:
- Disconnect the washing machine from power.
- Locate the NTC thermistor (usually found near the heating element).
- Use a multimeter to test its resistance. At room temperature (25°C), it should read around 4700 ohms. If the reading is significantly different, the thermistor likely needs replacement.
- Inspect the wiring:
- Look for any signs of damage, loose connections, or corrosion.
- Repair or replace damaged wires as needed.
- Reset the machine:
- Reconnect the power and try running a cycle. If the error persists, further investigation is needed.
