Possible causes of ‘E3’ codes:
1. Spin drum stuck – Verify that the spinner moves freely to eliminate this cause.2. Hall Sensor fails or is loose – When the Hall Sensor fails or becomes dislodged, the controldoesn't recognize that the motor is spinning and shuts down. The result will likely be an “
