How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect the appliance from mains before opening any covers.

  • Step 1 – Power reset: Unplug the washer for at least 5 minutes to allow capacitors to discharge. Reconnect and try a simple rinse or spin program.
  • Step 2 – Check supply voltage: Ensure the outlet provides stable voltage within the range specified on the rating plate. Avoid using long extension cords.
  • Step 3 – Inspect PCB: Remove the top cover and locate the main control board. Look for burnt components, bulging capacitors, or signs of moisture ingress. If present, the PCB likely needs replacement.
  • Step 4 – Service mode / reprogramming: Some Schulthess models allow reinitialization of parameters via service mode and a service key or tool. This should be performed only by authorized service personnel with the correct software.
