Error codes F13, F14, F15 are typical for Ariston machines of the Margarita 2000 series (EVO-I). While electronic models show an error on a display or display, an electromechanically controlled CM indicates a trouble code by blinking indicators.
Therefore, with error F13, the indicator flashes 13 times with a break. In this case, the control selector will rotate in a circle.
What do the codes mean?
Ariston washing machine gives an error F 13, F 14, F 15, which means a malfunction in the drying operation - this mode may not turn on at all. The reason is the failure of the temperature sensor, or a violation of the wiring connection.
How to fix it and solve the problem at home, read below.
What to do with a mistake at home
Please note that the error code F13, F14, F15 does not appear in the Hotpoint Ariston washing machines.
Let's figure out how to fix the problem and reset the error F 13, F 14, F 15.
We list the possible breakdowns and options for their elimination at home.
Drying in the washing machine Ariston runs continuously
- See if there is a pin in the CN1 connector that is on the connection board. If it is broken or removed, put the connector back in place. If it fails, burns out - replace the connector.
- Check the connection quality and operation of the level sensor. Replace the device if necessary.
- Is there a malfunction in the backplane? Then it is better to replace it with a new one.
Drying does not work
Perhaps the wiring is broken:
Inspect the contact between the electronic controller and the heating element. Then check each item individually. If there is a malfunction, a replacement is needed. And if the connection is broken, pull the connector back into place.
The temperature sensor has lost contact with the drying system
What can be done:
- Inspect the connectors leading from the temperature sensor to the heater.
- Check the health of the temperature sensor. If the device fails, we will tell you how to change it.
Replacing the temperature sensor
If you checked the temperature sensor and it is faulty, and the error is still on the panel, do the following:
- Before starting work, unplug the Ariston washer from the mains.
- Having unscrewed the screws, remove the top panel of the machine.
- Open the heating chamber by first disconnecting the wires and unscrewing the bolts.
- Pull off the rubber seal, open the heater cover.
- Remove the old sensor and put the new one in the same position.
If the recommendations helped remove the error, everything was done correctly. Ariston's washing machine will work normally.
