Frequently Asked Questions: Faure E97
FAQ TREEWhat does error code E97 mean on a Faure appliance?
Faure error code E97 indicates: Faure FWG / FWF Series / Magic'45 Compact Washer: Program selector knob configuration mismatch E97 with loaded firmware program map..
What is the root cause of Faure error code E97?
The primary root cause for Faure code E97 is: On Faure (Faure FWG / FWF Series / Magic'45 Compact Washer) models: Incorrect selector knob positions defined in configuration byte (e.g. 14-position knob programmed as 16-position knob)..
How do I fix or resolve Faure error code E97?
To resolve error code E97: Check configuration byte 15 in service menu and verify it matches exact selector knob type on the physical fascia. 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 E97 by resetting power?
Resetting power (unplugging for 5–10 minutes) clears temporary memory errors. However, if Faure code E97 persists, the physical component causing On Faure (Faure FWG / FWF Series / Magic'45 Compact Washer) models: Incorrect selector knob positions defined in configuration byte (e.g. 14-position knob programmed as 16-position knob). must be inspected or replaced.
How do I test electrical resistance for Faure code E97 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 Faure code E97?
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.
