Samsung Q1435 washer. Error TE

[smwaverider]

Sometimes completes the cycle but more frequently stops part way through with error code TE. Is this Samsung code for Thermister? What can I do to Check and possibly rectify the error and where is the part located on the Q1435?
Thanks

9. THERMISTOR ERROR – Display shows tE .
– This error occurs, when Thermistor circuit is abnormal or a voltage of 0.2v or below or, 4.5v and over is detected
– This error can be cleared by power s/w off

the wash thermistor appears to be faulty

could be a broken wire of course

plug out if investigating!!

Thanks Helo-75, that’s very helpful. I will investigated to see if there is a lose wire or if it needs replacing.
I have previously replaced the heater element successfully. Where is the
thermistor usually located?

[helo_75]

the thermistor is the probe that fits in/around the heater area
ive looked on my samsung manual, and its not listed, but i can assure you its there

Thanks,
I’ll look tomorrow to check the connections etc. Have not read the email yet, but the answer to a spares enquiry to Whitegoods, says the thermistor cannot be bought sepearately but is part of something else £60+. My wife read the email so, until I read it, I,m sounding vague.
Access to wife;s computer tomorrow

its probabbly part of the heater then

if no broken wires, replace and all will be cured
