4-9. HOW TO DIAGNOSE AND REPAIR BY SYMPTOM
1) Washer is not energized.
Where, what & how to check?
Result of Check Possible Cause
How to repair & settle
Household Power supply
1. Check whether connection between
the plug and the electrical is poor
2. Measure voltage of the electrical.
Wiring of the Washer
1. Measure resistance between both
ends of the power supply cord with
both the plug pins short-circuited.
2. Check whether every connector in
the bundle of connectors has a
good connection.
3. Check resistance of every wire to
find out a open wire.
Electrical component
1. Check resistance with power relay
switch turned on
2. Check the secondary voltage of the
transfomer.
3. Measure resistance to check
whether the T.P of the motor is
blown out.
4. Check whether the fuse is open.
Controller
If there are no defects in the above,
it should be defect of the controller.
If supply voltage is 120% higher than
it should be defect of the controller.
If supply voltage is 120% higher than
rating the varistar in the controller may
be broken. Check supply voltage.

Inlet Valve
1. If water doesn’t come though the
inlet valve works(electric sound
occurs)
1) Check whether water mains is cut.
2) Check whether tabs are turned on.
3) Hot & cold tab are opposite
2) Check whether tabs are turned on.
3) Hot & cold tab are opposite
connected.
4) Wrongly select water temperature
option.
5) If there are no problems in the
above, check the inlet valve filters
after disconnecting the water supply
hoses.
6) If there are no problems in the
above a diaphragm hole in the valve
is blocked by foreign substance or
the plunger in it is locked.
2. If the inlet valve doesn’t work(there
is no electric sound)during filling
cycle.
1) Check whether it’s connectors are
taken off or they have poor
connection.
2) Check resistance of the inlet valve.

Drain Motor
1. Operate washer setting spin only,
then press the start/pause button
when the wash motor starts to work
and then press the start/pause
button again in order for the drain
motor to work intermittently.

which means Ball Pressure Senosr
error
2. Check frequency of the Ball
Pressure Sensor without load if
wash is proceeding without filling.

if inlet valve and Ball Pressure
Sensor have no defects in the
above.
Reconnect the connector
or change leads. Change
