Error E22 in the Hansa washing machine

Error E22 in the Hansa1 washing machineError E22, which unexpectedly appeared on the display of the washing machine, will certainly cause a lot of questions for the user. What happened to the machine, what to do in this situation, as evidenced by the code? In most cases, he speaks of a short-term malfunction that occurred in the system. It is enough to disconnect the device from the network and start after 15-20 minutes. But if the error E22 is displayed even after that, there is a breakdown of the Hans washing machine, which should be fixed. Which one - find out together.

What happened to the typewriter?

The malfunction code issued by the automatic washing machine limits the range of possible breakdowns. The alphanumeric combination shown on the display allows the user to independently determine the cause of the violation. Mistake E22 talks about problems with the washing machine engine. That is, it was the engine that failed, neither the wiring, nor the tachometer, or other elements of the machine. Very rarely, such a code appears when the triac of the main control board breaks, but there are only a few such cases. So what to do when an error occurs?

  1. Check the washing machine motor for breakdowns.
  2. When the unit is equipped with an electric motor with a belt drive - analyze the condition of the brushes. If they have recently been replaced, check to see if they were installed correctly.
  3. Consider the collector; it may need cleaning.

It is possible to fix the breakdown on your own without resorting to the help of specialists, in this case. To make repairs with your own hands, you need to understand what the root cause of the error E22.

Detailed motor check

engine checkHansa brand automatic machines are equipped with commutator motors, which suggest some inconvenience during operation. For engines of this type, lamellas, brushes break, periodically breaks through the winding. As you can see, the reasons for the failure of the engine are enough. But in order to understand what exactly happened with the motor, you need to get to it:

  • unfasten the back of the washer;
  • carefully disconnect the wiring from the motor;
  • unscrew the fixing bolts and remove the engine from the housing.

When the part is in your hands, start engine diagnostics. The wiring of the stator and rotor windings are interconnected. Next, the created connection is connected to an electric network with a voltage of 220 V. If the rotor rotates, then the device is functioning properly. However, this diagnostic method has its drawbacks:

  • one hundred percent to confirm the engine’s performance, especially its functioning in various washing modes, is impossible;
  • when the engine is directly connected to the network, there is a chance that it can simply be closed.

Therefore, it’s best to add ballast to the circuit that will protect the motor. For this, the heater from the machine is perfect. Connect the elements, focusing on this scheme:

we connect the engine and the heater

By fastening the winding wires in this way, you will ensure the safety of the engine, when the heater is closed, it will heat up, protecting the motor from combustion. Having studied the structure of the collector engine, you can see that it has several components. In order to understand what causes the DTC, all parts should be checked.check engine brushes

  1. Electric brushes. They are located on the sides of the engine. Inspect them, if the elements are worn out, replace. It’s easy to understand that the problem lies in the brushes. Connect the wiring of the motor to the mains, if the engine sparks - it is in them. You can purchase replacement brushes in a specialized store by calling the manager the CMA model.
  2. Lamels. Through these elements, electricity is directed to the rotor. The lamellas are attached to the shaft with glue, therefore, they tend to peel off. Small delaminations can be removed using a lathe (carefully turning the collectors).When inspecting the slats, focus on any delamination, they will indicate a malfunction in the motor.
  3. Rotor and stator winding. If there are problems with the winding, the engine of the washing machine will not be able to work at full capacity, or it will completely fail. When a short circuit occurs in it, the engine overheats. The thermistor automatically shuts off the motor for safety reasons. To diagnose the winding, you need a multimeter. The device switches to resistance determination mode, the multimeter probes are applied to the sipes. Normally, the indicator should be displayed on the screen in the range from 20 to 200 ohms.

If the resistance value does not reach the limits of the norm, there is a short circuit, exceeds them - you can state the breakage of the winding.

Use a multimeter to check the starter. Select the buzzer mode, and alternately attach the probes to the wires. When the tester is silent, then everything is fine. If the device makes sounds, look for a short circuit by applying one probe to the part body, and the second to the wiring.

Once a defect is found, the breakdown should be repaired. If the matter is in the brushes - replace them, it makes sense to process the lamellas. Trying to restore the winding is not worth it, it is better to purchase a new engine.
