E14
Candy
Docking Station / Charging Contacts Fault
The E14 error appears when using the wall dock; the vacuum does not charge on the dock but charges directly from the charger.

Possible Causes
Dirty or oxidized dock contacts, Loose wiring inside the wall dock, Faulty dock PCB, Misaligned vacuum-to-dock connection
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dock from the mains before cleaning or opening it.
- 1. Clean contacts: Wipe the metal contacts on both the dock and the vacuum with a dry cloth. For light oxidation, use a pencil eraser gently, then wipe clean.
- 2. Check alignment: Mount the vacuum on the dock and ensure it sits fully down and clicks into place. Adjust the dock mounting height if necessary so the contacts meet squarely.
- 3. Test charger directly: Plug the charger directly into the vacuum (if supported). If it charges normally, the dock is at fault.
- 4. Inspect dock wiring (advanced): Remove the dock from the wall and open the casing. Check for loose wires, burnt components, or cracked solder joints on the small PCB. Reseat connectors.
- 5. Replace dock: If no obvious repair is possible, replace the entire Candy wall dock assembly.
