Washer displays tE fault code on the control panel, indicating the thermistor is out of range or has failed. Replacing the thermistor assembly clears the error and restores normal operation.
Wash water is too hot, too cold, or does not match the selected temperature setting. A failed NTC thermistor sends wrong resistance values to the control board, causing temperature regulation failure.
Machine abruptly halts during heated wash or rinse cycles. The control board detects an out-of-range thermistor signal and shuts down the cycle as a safety precaution.
Washer fills with water but heated wash programs fail to activate or progress. A defective thermistor prevents the control board from confirming safe operating temperature, blocking cycle initiation.
💡 Pro Tip: How to Know Your Thermistor Has Failed
Your part is likely the culprit if you notice any of the following:
⚠️ Washer displays a "tE" error code on the control panel
⚠️ Water temperature is too hot, too cold, or inconsistent regardless of cycle selection
⚠️ Washer stops mid-cycle during heated wash programs
⚠️ Control board repeatedly faults even after resetting the machine
🔬 DIY Test: Disconnect power, locate the thermistor on the outer tub, and probe the blue and white wires with a multimeter set to resistance (ohms). A healthy thermistor reads 2.5K–180K ohms depending on ambient temperature. A reading outside this range confirms a faulty thermistor. Also inspect the wire harness connector for broken or corroded pins before replacing the sensor.
