- The water temperature has exceeded 90 ° C.
- The water has not been heated, because its temperature index has changed by less than 2 ° C in 10 minutes of operation of the heating element.

If the Samsung washing machine diagnoses the E6 error, in most cases this may indicate the following faults of the household appliance:
- Short circuit or burnout of the heating element led to malfunction of the heating elements. This situation is the most common and is eliminated by replacing heating equipment.
- Malfunction of the temperature sensor, which is responsible for measuring the temperature of the water recycled into the washing machine. In most models of Samsung brand equipment, temperature sensors are built into the design of the heating element, and therefore, it may be necessary to replace the whole TEN.
- A failure of the control board, which is usually presented as an intelligent module responsible for controlling the operating processes of the washing machine. Often there is a burnout on the relay board, which is responsible for switching on the heater. During the repair, you may need to replace the relay or additional soldering of the contact tracks.
Important! If the problem is caused by a processor burnout on the control board, then the entire module must be replaced.
- If the error on the monitor periodically appears and disappears, it can be assumed that the wiring is damaged in the area of ​​connection of the heating element to the control module.
Useful recommendations
