Hi there,

can anyone please help me with error code E57 on a Zanussi ZWF 14791 W.

Many Thanks

Hi CK, thanks for the quick reply.

I checked the motor coil resistance and no problems there. I resoldered a couple of suspect joints on the motor control board and cleaned some contacts before reconnecting and running the diagnostic again.
While I was reconnecting I noticed that the cable to 'Pin 1' on the motor was all but separated. I made a temporary repair and now get a very brief EF4 followed by E9F, no E57.
Any Ideas?

Best Regard

motor current overload.faulty motor,wiring or inverter.check the wire that goes from the inverter to the motor as they can break or get bad connection causing this fault.UNPLUG FROM MAINS before touching as everything is at mains on the inverter heatsink
