E02

Inlet Valve

Issue:
Hoover Washing Machine Error Code E02 - If your washing machine has suddenly flagged up with either an E02 error code or the power light is blinking twice before pausing and repeating, there is likely to be a problem with the machine filling with water.
Advice:
If the water supply is turned on and the hose pipe is not kinked the problem may be due to a faulty inlet valve. Check the inlet valve with a multimeter to confirm continuity - typically 2000 to 4000 Ohms.

E03

Drain Pump

Issue:
Hoover Washing Machine Error Code E03 - If your washing machine is either displaying E03 error code or the power light is blinking three times before pausing and repeating, there is likely to be a problem with the machine draining water from the drum.
Advice:
Locate the drain pump. Using a multimeter check the Pump, you will be looking for a reading of between 100 and 300 Ohms - with a reading of zero or excessively over then a pump has failed and will require replacing.

E06

Unbalanced Load

Issue:
Hoover Washing Machine Error Code E06 - If your washing machine shows an E06 error code or the power light blinks six times before pausing the fault could lie with an unbalanced load.
Advice:
Remove your current washing load and start a cycle empty to confirm that the drum still spins.

E11

Dryer Sensor

Issue:
Hoover Washer Dryer Error Code E11 - If your washer dryer is showing an E11 error code or the power light blinks eleven times before pausing and repeating there is likely to be a problem with the dryer sensor or its wiring.
Advice:
Depending on the model, locate the washer dryer sensor within the ducting area. Occasionally the electrical wires leading to the sensor may be damaged due to being worn or excess tension. Check the dryer sensor resistance using a multimeter. You’re looking for an average reading between 10,000 - 20,000 ohms.

E16

Heater Insulation

Issue:
Hoover Washing Machine Error Code E16 - If your washing machine is showing a E16 error on the digital display or the power light flashes sixteen times before pausing and repeating, it’s likely the machine is having a problem with the water heater.
Advice:
Check the heater element using a multimeter. The average reading is between 20 and 30 ohms - If there is zero reading or it tests excessively high then the element will be faulty and require replacing.
