Possible Causes

Hot and cold hoses reversed, Faulty hot water inlet valve, NTC sensor misreading temperature, Control not energizing correct valve

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off water supply and unplug the washer before disconnecting hoses.

  • Verify hose connections: Ensure the hot water hose is connected to the hot tap and the hot inlet on the washer (usually marked red or "H").
  • Test hot supply: Run hot water at a nearby sink to confirm hot water is available.
  • Check inlet valves: If hoses are correct but temperature is wrong, the hot inlet valve or NTC sensor may need testing and replacement.
