What is the root cause of Arthur Martin error code E41?
The primary root cause for Arthur Martin code E41 is: On Arthur Martin (Arthur Martin Electrolux AWF Series / Silence Plus Washer) models: Door pushed outward by oversized laundry load, broken door hinge sagging downwards, or worn internal copper contacts inside door interlock..
How do I fix or resolve Arthur Martin error code E41?
To resolve error code E41: Check door hinge alignment and tighten hinge screws. Test continuity of interlock switch contact (< 0.5 Ω when door locked). Hold Départ/Pause and Option buttons firmly for 5 seconds until the red indicator extinguishes and service memory resets.
Is it safe to clear Arthur Martin error code E41 by resetting power?
