No error code? Search by symptom
Some appliances show flashing lights or stop working without a readable fault code. Start with the symptom you can observe.
Check the model before following a fix
A short code such as E1 or F1 cannot reliably identify a fault on its own. The meaning and reset process depend on the manufacturer, model family and sometimes the country of sale.
- Identify the appliance brand and complete model number from its label or manual.
- Copy the displayed code exactly, including spaces, letters and numbers.
- Search using the brand, appliance type and code. Add the model number if results are too broad.
- Compare the instructions with documentation applicable to your model before trying any reset or repair.
For model labels, check accessible locations such as a washer or dishwasher door frame, a refrigerator’s interior wall, or the manufacturer’s product label. Do not remove electrical covers to locate a label.
Other ways to find help
Know when to stop troubleshooting
Stop using an appliance if you notice smoke, sparking, burning or gas smells, severe overheating, exposed wiring, or water near electrical connections. Seek appropriate qualified or emergency assistance. Internal electrical work, gas repairs, refrigerant servicing and microwave high-voltage repairs are not homeowner troubleshooting steps.
