DISPATCHAlways disconnect appliance from 230V/400V mains before opening panels. Use CAT III multimeter for circuit testing.
Frequently Asked Questions: Faure E23
FAQ TREEWhat does error code E23 mean on a Faure appliance?
Faure error code E23 indicates: Faure FWG / FWF Series / Magic'45 Compact Washer: Drain pump triac failure E23; pump runs continuously or triac circuit detects short circuit on main PCB..
What is the root cause of Faure error code E23?
The primary root cause for Faure code E23 is: On Faure (Faure FWG / FWF Series / Magic'45 Compact Washer) models: Electronic triac on main control PCB damaged by short-circuited drain pump coil (excess current > 2A) or moisture ingress at pump spade terminals..
How do I fix or resolve Faure error code E23?
To resolve error code E23: Check drain pump stator coil resistance before replacing PCB (if < 150 Ω, replace pump first!). Inspect PCB triac circuit for burned trace. Press and hold Départ/Pause and Annulation buttons for 6 seconds until all status indicators flash synchronously and clear fault memory.
Is it safe to clear Faure error code E23 by resetting power?
Resetting power (unplugging for 5–10 minutes) clears temporary memory errors. However, if Faure code E23 persists, the physical component causing On Faure (Faure FWG / FWF Series / Magic'45 Compact Washer) models: Electronic triac on main control PCB damaged by short-circuited drain pump coil (excess current > 2A) or moisture ingress at pump spade terminals. must be inspected or replaced.
How do I test electrical resistance for Faure code E23 using a multimeter?
Set a digital multimeter to ohms (Ω). Disconnect power and test Drain Pump Motor Stator Coils across Across pump motor spade terminals (L-N unclipped). Expected nominal reading is 160Ω–220Ω (Sync 230V) / 20Ω–45Ω (3-Phase BLDC). Tolerance: ±10% balance. Insulation resistance between coil and motor chassis must exceed 20MΩ..
What safety protocol must be followed before servicing Faure code E23?
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.
