Hi I have a Hoover 1400 8kg it's now coming up with an e16. I've cleaned filter and drained and now the e16 is coming up each cycle. Is there anything I can do?

Faulty drain pump, or faulty heater.

How to easily fix your E03 error code on Hoover washing machine

Hi!

Baically, Hoover washing machine error code E16 means that there are problems with the insulation of the heater. this may lead to the shutdown of the circuit breaker and other random errors, but this is difficult to prove without replacing the heating element.

An E16 error code means there is a heater insulation problem which could cause the tripping of your fuse box and other random cycle errors, but it's hard to prove without the replacement of your heater.

For more information on other error codes , watch this video .

OK Anthony! Now you have enough money to FIX the machine! LOL. First One error begets another. So forget about the errors! You are focusing on them too much! You told yourself whats wrong with this machine! OK Give Up? It is Not Draining! It is your Drain Pump Lad! Go and buy a new one, replace but remember to unplug it first. Don\'t due all that other stuff. Run the machine afterwards on a short cycle and guess what? No water!

Hi.
These specific codes indicate the following:
E08 means that the Motor jammed or tacho fault
E16 means that the heating element is shorted or that there is a short in the circuit containing the element.
E03 This error code indicates that the water is not draining quickly enough.
Before doing anything it is worth removing the washing machine mains plug from the power outlet and leaving the machine disconnected for at least ten minutes. This will reset the codes if no faults still exist. Then plug the machine back in and select required wash routine. If all is well, well done you just needed to reset the machine. If a fault code is still showing then it would indicate there is still a problem in the area indicated.
You said you had checked that the filter was ok, it is also worth checking that your drainage hose is not blocked or
kinked.

Clean the drain filters: click on filters

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,
I would gently suggest as a first step that you clean the drain motor lint tray/filter. So many 'faults' are caused by blocked filters and many machines will not even go to spin or release the door lock if there is any water still left inside.
Here are my complete guidance notes for checking both the drain motor filter and the drain motor ;-0)
-------------------------------------

If you are unsure where the filter is, it is often behind the front lower (kick) panel (or in some machines at the rear in an awkward position!) and most are held in by a round cover/knob. Sometimes the filter will not come out with the cover and you will have to persuade it to come out to play!

REMOVE POWER AND ENSURE YOU HAVE A WATER RECEPTACLE/RAGS TO SOAK UP THE WATER WHICH IS BOUND TO POUR OUT!
It's surprising what people have found in theirs! It is always worthwhile checking it on a regular basis.
Now- whilst the filter is removed it is normally possible to see the drain motor and ensure it is not jammed by a foreign object such as a needle or a toothpick. It should be able to be turned by hand/finger- the power IS OFF!
At this point it is also possible to test if the motor works. No clothes or water in the machine, select a spin cycle and put the power back on. You should be able to see the motor turning at some point, possibly straight away. If it doesn't work then the motor is malfunctioning!

Hope the filter is the problem and good luck!

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,
Although you say that it drains when you operate the drain button I would still gently suggest as a first step that you clean the drain motor lint tray/filter.

Same problem here except the filter was clean. Got a new washing machine coming tomorrow. Looks like it could be the pump BUT after reading various web sites and auction sites it looks like it may also be the circuit board.

check your pump and FILTER
