Error code F02 in washing machines Indesit says that the motor is not functioning properly. Motor damage is a rare occurrence in modern cars, but this probability should not be ruled out. It is enough to understand why the error code F02 is on, because there may be many reasons for its appearance on the scoreboard.
Below we will consider the decryption of the F02 code on the Indesit washing machine - what it means and how to fix it yourself.
Error value under code F02
F02 is on, but does the machine first display this trouble code on the display? It is necessary to understand the causes and methods of action, if you need to urgently remove the error.
If the AGR gives an error F 02 on the electronic display, this means a broken circuit in the tachometer, which leads to engine failure.
How to determine this? When you lay the laundry and start washing, the machine tries to draw water and start the drum. After several such unsuccessful attempts, Ф02 appears on the display of the washer.
How to check engine for serviceability
Asdesynchronous, commutator and brushless motors are used to equip the Indesit SMA. Two methods for diagnosing an engine are known:
- Check the voltage supply to the starter and rotor windings of the motor by alternately connecting these elements.
- Using a 500-watt transformer, power the connected windings of the starter and rotor.
In modern machines, the f02 code is lit on the electronic display. Owners of older models of cars without a display can identify a breakdown by the lit indicator “QUICK WASH” or the flashing light “ADDITIONAL RINSE”.
Causes of error
If the code F02 was displayed, a number of reasons could have preceded this. Consider the list:
- The tacho driver responsible for engine speed is out of order;
- The rotor of the engine of the machine jammed, which led to a breakdown;
- A rare reason that should not be discounted is engine failure;
- On the electronic board, the contacts of the J9 connector are out of order;
- The control module is out of order.
Troubleshooting F02
To understand how to fix the situation that triggered the f02 error on the Indesit washing machine, you need to find the breakdown in stages. Try restarting the equipment by unplugging the power cord from the wall outlet for 20 minutes.
What to do if the breakdown is confirmed? You need to start the search in the following sequence:
- Disconnect the AGR from the sewage and water supply by deploying the equipment in a comfortable position.
- Tighten the pins for the motor connections.
- Check the connection of the engine with the electronic module.
- Check the pins of the CNE connector - you will find them on the module.
- The winding of the motor and tachometer also needs to be carefully checked, making sure that it is in good condition.
- Replace the module if necessary.
How to fix the problem
To check the health of the control module, arm yourself with a camera. Having taken out the board, disconnect all the chips from it, take a picture of the location of the wires - in the future it will be needed to return everything back in the same sequence. You can also find circuit boards on the Internet.
On the J9 connector of the board, check the contacts, if necessary, they need to be replaced.
If you find a problem with the module, entrust the Indesit washing machine to an experienced specialist to clear the errors and solve the problem.
