However, if Candy code E10 persists, the physical component causing On some top-loading models, this indicates a fault with the drum position sensor. On others, it can mean an issue with the program selector switch. must be inspected or replaced.
How do I test electrical resistance for Candy code E10 using a multimeter?
Set a digital multimeter to ohms (Ω). Disconnect power and test Protective Earth Bonding & Incoming Mains Voltage across Between unpainted chassis metal and mains plug earth pin; incoming terminal block L-N. Expected nominal reading is Earth Ground Continuity: <0.1Ω (Chassis metal to mains plug earth pin). Mains: 230V AC ±10%.. Tolerance: Protective conductor impedance must remain <0.1Ω. Line voltage 207V–253V AC under load..
What safety protocol must be followed before servicing Candy code E10?
Standard electrical safety protocol: 1. Disconnect 230V mains power before opening panels. 2. Verify zero voltage at test points. 3. Allow hot water or heating elements to cool below 30°C before handling.
