"tE" Error (Thermistor Error)
The thermistor monitors water temperature.
In most cases the cause of this error is due to a broken wire at the thermistor which is located at the bottom/front of the tub.
It is rare for a thermistor itself to be at fault--although I've seen *one* that was a "dud" straight out of the box new.
The next most likely cause would be a loose plug connection either at the thermistor or at the main power board.
