E02 Water temperature exceeded high limit Switch the two house circuit breakers dedicated for the water heater to OFF and then press the reset button located behind the control panel on the water heater. Flip the house circuit breakers to the ON position. If error returns, call a service technician for assistance.

    In order to reset, you may have to run the hot water in your house until it runs cool, this is a very important step to actually reset the hot water heater when clearing the code. This step is missed by everyone I have seen responding to this question.

I discovered Whirlpool hot water heater was displaying E02 error code. Followed directions in manual to possibly correct problem, but E02 code continued to be displayed. What is the remedy for this?

Error E02 indicates that the water temperature exceeded high limit.

Switch off the house circuit breakers dedicated to the water heater and then press the reset button located behind the control panel on the water heater.

Switch house circuit breakers back on.

If error persists, call a service engineer.

good luck

Yes, it is a dispenser system error. The technician manual says to check the mechanical linkage from dispenser motor to top of dispenser.

However, in my case this page from whirlpool was helpful:
https://www.whirlpool.com/product-he...r-code/PH5260/

It says a common solution for this error (f8 e2) is:
The detergent drawer or detergent cartridge might be clogged with detergent. Clean out the detergent cartridge per Use and Care Instructions.
If cleaning the detergent cartridge did not correct the problem, please contact us.
For any additional questions, please call our Customer eXperience Center toll-free at 1-866-698-2538, Monday through Friday 8AM-8PM Eastern Standard Time.
You will be asked to provide the model and serial number which is found on the front door rim after opening the door.



So I washed out my dispenser and now it's working again.

F06, E02

I think these problems are related to water inlet, take off the hoses from the back of washer and you will find a screen in the outlets clean with old tooth brush until clear.

Error code F01 E02

For how long did you unplug the power cord? If it was under 5 minutes, unplug it for longer. Check if that clears the error code. If it doesn't, the motor control unit needs to be replaced.

Please double check your model number to get the correct part. Most of the Whirlpool washers have model numbers that start with 3 letters.

I hope this helps.

Eternal GU-195S Hybrid water heater

Is this new installation? Or old installation that stopped working?
Here's the 100% solution. And it applies to all brands, models, types, of tankless water heater, no matter which error code:
http://waterheatertimer.org/How-to-troubleshoot-gas-water-heater.html
People should avoid complicated water heaters that claim 'energy star' and '98% efficiency' while proclaiming 'endless hot water' as if the laws of physics, economics and common sense can suddenly be suspended if only the customer would buy expensive, complicated water heater that cannot be maintained or repaired by customer, and there are no qualified technicians who live in your area.
Otherwise you need a service manual, or contact eternal manufacturer. 1-866-946-1096
http://eternalwaterheater.com/pdf/downloads/GU100.pdf
Error E02 does not show in manual.
E2 is ignition failure, which on other brands can be failed PC board... and inadequate incoming air supply, or venting, or failed sensor, dirty combustion parts, air or water in gas line, low gas pressure, wrong gas, etc, or multiples from list above.

If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/gene_9f0ef4df2f9897e7

E02 error and heater will not start. Service

high limit is open this is due several factors like slow water .pump on low speed or dirty filter, also hard water, or assembly valve not working properly so make sure the filter is clean check the water chemistry an last check the valve assembly. make sure plumbing is correct water in and out from the heater
