Helpful answers regarding doorstep checking, repairs, spare parts, and visiting charges in Salem.
Error 02 / d02 indicates a door lock failure. The main board cannot detect that the door is securely latched. Door lock aagala? This is caused by a burnt bi-metal door interlock switch or a broken plastic door latch tongue. Our technician replaces the door interlock to restore normal cycle starts.
E01 signals a water fill timeout. Hard water scale commonly chokes the IFB Aqua Energie filter or the dual inlet solenoid valve. Our technician descales the inlet assembly and checks water flow rate at your Salem home.
Water drain aagala? E03 means drainage timeout. The coin trap at the bottom front is likely blocked by coins, safety pins, or lint, or the drain pump motor has failed. Our technician removes the debris and tests the drain pump.
An IFB drain pump replacement costs around ₹950 – ₹1,850, while a front load heating element replacement ranges from ₹1,100 – ₹2,100. All prices are indicative and verified on-site.
A loud roaring rumble during spin indicates that the rear tub bearings and oil seal have failed due to water ingress. Our technician checks the drum shaft, replaces the bearing kit, and balances the drum.
Error 06 points to a motor tacho generator fault or worn carbon brushes in older models, preventing the board from sensing motor rotation. We replace the carbon brushes or tacho coil on-site.
