Fix EHO Error Electrolux Zanussi Dryer Easy Repair

[@SC-bg8wf]

Previously I watched a video saying I needed to clean the dust and fluff off the pcb but there was nothing to clean off. However, I followed this video and I did find bad solder joints on the relay as this video predicted. I re soldered those joints and it FIXED IT !! Brilliant. Do take lots of photos before unplugging all the connectors.

[@askmrwashywashy]

awesome glad you were able to fix it. should be good for a long time.

[@jamescehak3866]

This error code has been driving me nuts! Followed your steps and found the loose solders on the PCB board! Soldered them now it works perfectly, saved me a few grand, also replaced the locking mechanism on the washer! Good as new! Thanks mate

[@itdoban]

I did this repair on Zanussi Lindo 300. Worked a treat as the internal parts were the same. Never soldered in my life before. Bought a solder iron and gave it a go. I redid every solder on the circuit board and now my tumble drier works perfectly. Just shows you…… give it a go, save yourself lots of money! Spent £16 instead of £600! Thankyou so much.

[@vueltaacostatropical3137]

Same problem with my Electrolux dryer. Followed every step of your video...and now it works fine. Was easier than i expected. So, huge thank you for this perfectly clear video. So helpful. French guy in Spain.

[@askmrwashywashy]

Awesome glad it’s helped you

[@catman72]

I just finished fixing my machine, thanks to you it was so easy, it was faulty exactly in those same 2 contacts - i suspect it might have to do with the vibrations of the machine. thanks for saving me a lot of time and a repair that would have cost me a $120 US at least, as technician rates go round here. i wish i could do for you more than just hit the Like button.

[@askmrwashywashy]

Welcome. I’m glad you fixed it. Your like helps the channel a lot

[@stephenkkyang6124]

I used this Electrolux Flexcare Condenser 7kg for 4 years. 9 months ago it’s belt broke an repair costed US$150 equivalent, in Hong Kong. 4 days ago the error code EHO appeared and the machine just won’t start. I searched on KZbin and came across this video and didn’t believe it and my wife ordered a new machine yet to be delivered in 2 days. Preparing for the arrival of the new one, I removed the broken one from above the washer, and got the pc board out. It was perfect and no flaw in the soldering. Since it was to be replaced, there is no harm trying to do anything to it. So I added new solder onto the solder points of this particular relay. I found my low lead solder having difficulty mixing with the original solder at first. That means the original solder could have been of the industrial grade, high lead, high melting point to last a long time. Well the soldering eventually mixed the 2 kinds solder together. The different plugs of cables returned to their proper sockets. And I plug in the power cable and turn the machine on. Woh! The machine worked. Thank you so much. Now I am not going to throw the old machine away. 😅 And I need to find a place to store the new machine. 😢

[@joelwebb81]

Mate, many thanks for this video. The board actually looked fine to my untrained eye but I topped up solder on a few joins around the relay and PRESTO, we're back in town with a working dryer. Appreciate the time and effort you made to produce an excellent tutorial!

[@askmrwashywashy]

Hi mate welcome I’m so glad you fixed it. Good on ya.

[@tech4free334]

It is very rare I comment on KZbin but you deserve 1 subscribe from me for excellent and detail job. Follow exactly what you did and it works perfectly.

[@kornholio4512]

Bloody legend mate has been doing my head in for months. Was the exact same problem as a cold joint on the relay. A bit of solder later works as brand new. Absolute legend thanks again 👍👍

Thanks mate, I have very little electrical knowledge but thought I’d give it a go anyway and now dryer working as normal. Legend status you!!

[@kittanartjusatayanond6]

Thank you so much!! You just helped me save a few hundreds dollar from replacing the mainboard. It makes perfect sense to look for cold joints as the relay kept turning the motor on/off for so many years till the joints deteriorated. The machine is working perfectly now!! Thanks a million!!!

[@askmrwashywashy]

You are welcome!Glad I could help

[@IrishDublinDave]

Adding to the thanks here. Same issue with my dryer, reflowed the 6 pins under that same relay and boom, no more EH0. Youre a hero 👏

[@aldan68]

Thanks you so much for sharing. Had the same issue and now the dryer works again. Saved money and help saving the environment

[@Trev1916]

Thanks for this, really helpful, having EH0 problem with similar Electrolux dryer. Will open it up and take a look now after watching this.

[@PyroChimp75]

You saved me $270 with a two minute solder job, Thank you.

[@sj1378]

Was abit optimistic if this would work or not as the soldering looked fine, but it's worked and saved me several hundred pounds in buying a new tumble dryer. Thanks 👍

[@MajorYass]

My EDC2075GDW was having this error and after following the video it fixed it thank you! A couple things were different for me: First off, my Motherboard has a yellow glue over all the solder joints. Applying new solder would cause it to roll off and I couldn't de solder any of the joints either. So, you have to scrap the yellow stuff off around the solder joint then you can apply fresh solder. Also, the plastic connectors were very stuck. So, I had to use needle nose pliers and a flathead screwdriver to carefully to pull them off. Otherwise, it wasn't too bad make sure to take lots of pictures of the motherboard wires and connectors.

[@rand3rs]

Thanks!

[@navotoren1476]

Amazing! I followed the steps you mentioned, repaired the soldering and it just worked! Thank you for sharing the knoweldge.

[@yanivhoobianschmal7826]

Thank you very much!!! At start I didn’t saw any cold solder, but from a closer look, you can see a ring inside the soldering. So I just re-resoldered all of the relays, and it just works like new. Excellent video, works perfectly. Mine is branded as AEG, but of course it’s the same.

[@kubuspuchatek8829]

Hello, this error diplayed everytime you pressed start button ? Or a few minutes or cycles later ? I have this problem since a few weeks and driving me crazy too.

[@askmrwashywashy]

[@askmrwashywashy]

Hi mate if it does that you need to resolver that loose connection yes

[@ryarco]

You're AWESOME. 👍😁👍 Thanks so much for taking the time to make the video. The solder was cracked on the same pads as it was in your video. The macro zoom on my phone really helped spot the issue on the board.

[@tonngam1809]

Thanks so much for a useful video. It was the same issue with my dryer, causing intermittent the EH0 error. Dry/cracked solder joints on the back of the relays. Thankfully I had just enough knowledge and the right tools to fix this in about half an hour.

[@FumblerX]

Thanks, there where cold solders and cracks in them on my machine. Looks like it is all working now. Super good video.

[@volkandp]

Thank you. I rapaired my machine with this video.

[@digitalbroadcaster]

I already knew about these dry joints on this relay. No other relays are affected though, although the one right next to the black relay has a habit of burning out. Contacts melt and burst through the casing at the black relay side. It's worth checking for any deformation/rippling on that white relay case.

[@pedrodelafuente7170]

Great tutorial. Is gave me the opportunity to have it mended and cleaned from all fluff. The only issue is a leftover screw ;-). Many thanks

[@askmrwashywashy]

Good problem to have 1 screw leftover 😁

[@opendersingh2978]

Dang, thanks so much for this. Like the other comments, same issue with cold joints, and a bit of solder fixed it all up. What is this - planned obsolescence? Manufacturing defect? In any case, happening outside of warranty this was about to cost me a pretty penny.

Na 6 jaar hetzelfde probleem en inderdaad bij mij waren ook de soldeerpunten rondom het OMRON relais slecht/gebroken. Oude tin met tinzuiger verwijderd, en opnieuw gesoldeerd (met tin en ouderwets lood). Een aantal ander twijfelachtige verbindingen heb ik ook opnieuw gesoldeerd (en steeds de oude tin eerst verwijderd). Alles weer in elkaar gezet en de EH0 melding was weg. Bij het losmaken van alle stekkers is het me alleen niet gelukt om de stekker met de 3 roze draden los te krijgen, stekker is me afgebroken. Hierop de contrastekker van de printplaat verwijderd, en 3 losse draden op de print gesoldeerd en (helaas) met kroonsteentje later de verbinding met de 3 roze draden gemaakt.

Hi, thanks for the video! mine is working for t hours and then shows this error. sometimes after several minutes. i went over the soldering, but it didn't help, unfortunately.
