Err2
The Err2 error code on a Haier washing machine indicates a drainage issue. This means the machine is unable to drain the water properly within the allotted time.
Possible causes or Err2 error:
- Blocked drain hose or filter:
- This is the most common culprit. The drain hose can become clogged with debris like coins, socks, or hair. Additionally, the filter, usually located near the bottom front of the machine, can trap lint and other small items.
- Kinked or damaged drain hose:
- If the hose is bent or pinched, it can restrict the water flow. Check for any visible damage or blockages along its length.
- Drain pump malfunction:
- In rare cases, the pump itself might be faulty and unable to remove the water efficiently.
- Leveling issues:
- An unevenly leveled machine can put strain on the drain system and lead to drainage problems.
- Plumbing issues:
- Clogged drain pipes in your house can also prevent the machine from draining properly.
Troubleshooting the Err2 error code in Haier Washing Machine
- Clean the drain filter:
- Locate the filter, usually behind a small panel at the bottom front of the machine. Remove it, clean it thoroughly under running water, and replace it securely.
- Check the drain hose:
- Make sure the hose is not kinked or damaged. Ensure it's securely attached to both the machine and the drainpipe.
- Level the machine:
- Use a level to check if the machine is level. Adjust the feet as needed to ensure stability.
- Reset the machine:
- Unplug the machine for a few minutes and then plug it back in. This can sometimes clear temporary glitches.
- Check your home plumbing:
- Run hot water down your home drain to see if it flows freely. If not, the issue might be with your house plumbing, not the machine.

- Contact Haier support: They can offer further assistance and advise if professional repair is needed.
