How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the washer before removing the control fascia.
- Reset selection: Turn the program knob to OFF (or 0), wait a few seconds, then select a basic program and press start.
- Power cycle: Disconnect power for 10 minutes to clear temporary memory errors.
- Inspect selector (advanced): Remove the control panel and check that the selector knob and shaft are not cracked and that the switch body is firmly mounted. Reseat the connector.
Persistent E19 usually indicates a failing control board or selector switch, which should be replaced by a professional.
