The E:0F error code on a Speed Queen washer signifies an issue with the infrared (IR) communication system. Unlike some other error codes related to communication (E:0B and E:0C), E:0F points towards a problem with the IR functionality itself being disabled rather than a simple disruption in the signal.
Here's a breakdown of what I know about the E:0F error
Meaning: IR Communication Programmed Off
Possible Causes
- There are two primary reasons why you might encounter the E:0F error:
- Deliberately Disabled IR: It's possible that someone intentionally disabled the IR communication functionality on your washer. This could have been done for various reasons, like troubleshooting purposes or security concerns.
- Accidental Setting Change: In some models, the IR communication settings might be accidentally changed, inadvertently disabling the IR function.
Troubleshooting this error
- Solution: Here are some steps you can try to resolve the E:0F error:
- Consult Washer Manual: Refer to your Speed Queen washer's manual for specific instructions on enabling IR communication. The manual should have details on how to access the settings and re-activate the IR functionality.
- Search Online Resources: If you can't locate the user manual, search online resources for your specific Speed Queen washer model and "enable IR communication." You might find helpful guides or videos from Speed Queen or other reliable sources.
- Contact Speed Queen Support: If you're unable to find instructions or are unsuccessful in enabling IR communication yourself, contacting Speed Queen support is recommended. They can provide tailored guidance based on your washer model and troubleshoot any underlying issues that might be preventing IR activation.
Important Note: While the troubleshooting steps seem manageable, remember that some models might require specific button combinations or menu navigation to access and modify IR settings. If you're unsure about any steps, consulting Speed Queen support or a qualified technician is always the safest option.
