This problem may be frustrating for you, but you don't have to worry because the solution may be within your reach. Today, we will explain through this article the possible causes that may cause this fault to appear in your Daewoo washing machine, as well as talk about the different solutions you can apply to fix this problem.

We will provide you with a list of the possible causes of the IE error code in Daewoo washing machines, along with a brief explanation of each:

• Water supply failure: The water supply valve may be closed or there is low water pressure in the supply flow.
• Clogged hoses: The inlet or outlet hoses may be clogged with dirt or lint.
• Dirty or clogged filters: The washing machine filters, such as the water inlet filter or the pump filter, may be dirty or clogged.
• Defective water inlet valves: The valves that control the water flow into the washing machine may be faulty.
• Problems with the water pump: The pump that pumps water into the washing machine may have a malfunction or may be dirty or clogged.
• A failure in the water level sensor: The sensor that detects the water level in your Daewoo washing machine may be damaged.
• Issues with the PCB electronic board: The electronic board that controls the washing machine may have a fault that could be somewhat complicated to fix.

All these causes are the determining factors that cause the IE error code to appear in Daewoo washing machines. But now let's see what solutions you can apply to continue using your washing machine normally.

How to fix the IE error of the Daewoo washing machine?

We have prepared for you a list of possible solutions to find the solution to the IE error code in Daewoo washing machines. Take note of each one of them and do not skip any step that we are going to leave you below:

1. Turn off and disconnect from the power source your Daewoo washing machine to reset and refresh its sensors: Your washing machine may have a very specific temporary fault that may be related to a temporary misconfiguration, which is why as a first step let's apply a reset to your Daewoo washing machine. To do this, turn off your washing machine completely and disconnect it from the electrical power source, wait a few minutes and reconnect it. Turn on your washing machine and check if the IE error code has disappeared.
2. Check that the water supply valve is open and has sufficient water pressure: If the pressure is low or if you notice that the water flow is insufficient or scarce to supply your washing machine, then check the shut-off valve. Make sure this valve is fully open and check again if the water supply is adequate for your washing machine. Take advantage of the fact that you are checking the hoses and connections to also check the water inlet and outlet valves.
3. Check the inlet and outlet hoses that enter and exit your Daewoo washing machine: Make sure these hoses are in good condition and do not have any leaks. Also, check the joints and connections that connect the water inlet and outlet. If the washing machine is new and you have just installed it, it is common for the inlet and outlet hoses to be confused and installed inverted. Make sure that the water inlet hose is the one that actually comes from the water supply and connects to the washing machine at the water inlet connection. Sometimes hoses tend to get clogged with dirt or sediment carried by the water itself, so check carefully if the hoses are clogged or simply replace them with new ones.
4. Clean the water filter of your Daewoo washing machine: A dirty filter can obstruct the free passage of water, causing it to stagnate and overflow and leak through the water circuit. This filter is located at the bottom of the washing machine, behind a cover. Open the cover and remove the filter carefully. You can clean it with water and soap, using a brush with soft bristles, gently but firmly clean it to clean it but at the same time not to damage or deform it. Remove any residue or dirt that may obstruct it and place the filter back in place and close the cover.
5. Check the condition of the water pump of your Daewoo washing machine: A very dirty or clogged pump can obstruct the free passage of water, causing it to stagnate and overflow and leak throughout the water circuit. The pump is responsible for pumping water in and out of the drum. If it is damaged or clogged, it can cause a water leak. To access the pump, you will have to dismantle the back of the washing machine. Once you locate it, check that there are no foreign objects inside, such as coins, buttons, or lint that may jam its operation. If necessary, clean the pump with a damp cloth and if you notice that it is not working properly then you will have to replace it with a new one that is compatible with your washing machine model.
6. Check the operation of the water level sensor of your Daewoo washing machine: This sensor is responsible for measuring the amount of water in the drum and sending a signal to the PCB electronic board to start or stop the washing cycle. If the sensor is damaged or misaligned, it can send a wrong signal and cause a water leak. To check the sensor, you will need to use a multimeter and follow the user manual instructions. If the sensor is damaged, you will need to replace it with a new one that is compatible with your washing machine model.
7. If the problem persists, please repeat all the previous steps and make sure to follow everything to the letter: It is possible that you may have overlooked some detail or not performed some of the steps correctly. Please review everything you have done, but this time with more attention to detail and check that everything is in order. If the error still persists, then the fault is likely to be on the PCB electronic board of your Daewoo washing machine, which will require a much deeper and more exhaustive review.
8. Call a Daewoo technical service and request a home visit for a more thorough review: If you have already done all the previous steps and the IE error code continues to appear on your Daewoo washing machine, then it means that the problem is more serious than it seems and requires professional intervention. The PCB electronic board may be damaged, so in that case, it is best to contact the official Daewoo technical service or a trusted technician, and request a home visit to review your washing machine, provide you with an accurate diagnosis, and a repair quote.

In summary, the IE error code in Daewoo washing machines can be caused by various problems related to the water supply. You can try to fix it yourself by following the steps described in this article:

• Turn off and disconnect from the power source your Daewoo washing machine to reset and refresh its sensors
• Check that the water supply valve is open and has sufficient water pressure
• Check the inlet and outlet hoses that enter and exit your Daewoo washing machine
• Clean the water filter of your Daewoo washing machine
• Check the condition of the water pump of your Daewoo washing machine
• Check the operation of the water level sensor of your Daewoo washing machine
