Balay Washer Error e43

What is the malfunction of the Balay E43 error that is affecting your washing machine?

Have you ever experienced the situation where you start washing your clothes and suddenly your Balay washing machine stops and displays the E43 error code on its LED screen? If so, don't panic, because in this article, we want to explain what this error means and how you can resolve it without much drama.

The E43 error code indicates that there is a problem or malfunction with the washing machine motor. This can be caused by various reasons, such as:

• A failure in the wiring or electrical connection of the motor: Perhaps your washing machine has rebelled against you and decided to cut off the cables that power it. Or maybe it experienced a power surge or blackout, causing it to lose power.
• Wear or breakage of the motor brushes: The brushes are carbon pieces that rotate the motor. Over time, they wear out and may stop working.
• Blockage or obstruction in the drum or motor shaft: You may have accidentally put something in the washing machine that shouldn't be there, like a shoe, a coin, or a lonely sock. Or lint, dirt, or detergent residue may have accumulated in the drum or motor shaft.
• Short circuit or overheating in the motor: Your washing machine might have become so stressed by the E43 error that it overheated and caused a short circuit. Or it may have been overworked and needs a rest.

Any of these causes can prevent the motor from functioning properly and prevent the washing machine from completing the washing cycle.

How to resolve the Balay washing machine E43 error?

It's important for you to know how to resolve this error and prevent it from happening again. Here are some possible solutions you can try, starting from the simplest to the more complex:

1. Restart the washing machine: Sometimes, a simple restart can resolve the problem. To do this, turn off the washing machine, unplug it from the power source, wait for a few minutes, then plug it back in and turn it on. Then, try running a short wash cycle and check if the error disappears. It's like giving your washing machine a little break.
2. Check the motor wiring and connection: If the restart doesn't work, there may be a wiring or electrical connection issue with the motor. To check, you'll need to open the back cover of the washing machine and locate the motor. Then, verify that the wires are properly connected and that there are no signs of damage or burning. If you find any loose or broken wires, you'll need to replace or repair them. It's like performing surgery on your washing machine and stitching up its wounds.
3. Replace the motor brushes: Another possible cause of the E43 error code is worn-out or broken motor brushes. To replace them, you'll need to remove the motor from the washing machine and dismantle the brushes. Then, you'll need to install new brushes of the same type and size and reassemble the motor. It's like giving your washing machine a new pair of shoes that are more comfortable.
4. Clean the drum and motor shaft: There may be foreign objects blocking the drum or motor shaft. To clean them, you'll need to empty the washing machine and remove any objects that may be trapped in the drum or shaft. Then, manually rotate the drum and check for any resistance or strange noises.
5. Repeat all the previous steps if the problem persists: If none of the above solutions work, there may be a more serious issue with the motor or electronic board of the washing machine. Try repeating all the procedures again and make sure you haven't missed anything at all.
6. Contact Balay technical support: If after repeating all the previous steps you still have the E43 error code on your Balay washing machine, it's likely that you'll need the assistance of a professional. I recommend contacting Balay's technical support and requesting a visit from a specialized technician. They will be able to diagnose the problem accurately and repair your washing machine with a warranty. It's like taking your washing machine to the doctor and getting a proper treatment.
