Hi,
This machine won’t start wash programmes, although the dryer still works properly and heats up. The error code that I get is Ed4. Anyone have any idea what that means or what I should do?
Steve.

Hi steve
Error code ED4 relates to either a problem with the dryer circuit board , or the dryer element..
Before you proceed further make sure you remove all power to the machine by unplugging.You can then remove the top, and you will see the dryer unit that contains the heater mounted jn a metal unit.. You will see the element connections sticking out from the rear of this unit,you need to remove these wires only! Make a note of what colour goes to what connections (easist way is to take a photo withyour mobile phone cam.
Then insulate the wires with tape,and try the machine again… If it works then you need to repalce the heaters..if t doesent it usually points to the dryer PCB or associated wiring..

Hi,
Many thanks for your reply. Rather mysteriously, when I tried the machine again this morning it started working properly, so I’ve not tried your suggestions.
This might seem like a stupid question, but is this likely to keep happening, or might it be the sign of a serious problem?
Best wishes,
Steve.

A faulty dryer heater is NOT a serious problem. It is very common however for that element to give all kinds of spurious errors and likely as not will give you problems until it is replaced.
