Step-by-Step Fixes

E1 — Water Inlet Fault

  1. Check that the water tap is fully open and water pressure is normal.
  2. Inspect the inlet hose for kinks.
  3. Turn off the tap, disconnect the inlet hose, and clean the mesh filter at the hose connector under running water.
  4. Reconnect, turn on the tap, and restart the machine. Persistent E1 points to a faulty inlet valve.

E2 — Drainage Fault

  1. Open the small service panel at the bottom front of the machine.
  2. Place a tray and towel to catch water, then slowly unscrew the drain pump filter cap.
  3. Remove all lint, hair clips, coins, and debris from the filter and filter housing.
  4. Check the drain hose for kinks and ensure it isn’t blocked at the outlet.
  5. Reinstall the filter cap firmly and run a Spin/Drain cycle to verify the fix.

E6 — Door Lock Fault

  1. Open the door fully, ensure no fabric is trapped in the door seal, and close it firmly.
  2. Unplug the machine for 5 minutes to reset. Restart and recheck.
  3. If E6 persists with the door properly closed, the door lock solenoid needs replacement.

Ub / UE — Unbalanced Load

  1. Open the door and redistribute clothes evenly around the drum.
  2. Add smaller items if washing one large item (e.g., one towel alone will always unbalance).
  3. Verify the machine is sitting level on the floor — adjust the levelling feet if needed.
  4. Close the door and press Start to resume spinning.

E3, E4, E5, E7 — Technician Required

These codes indicate motor, overflow, heating, or PCB faults. Unplug for 5–10 minutes and retry. If the code reappears, call Godrej service.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I reset a Godrej washing machine?

Turn off the machine, unplug from the socket, wait 5 minutes, then plug back in and restart. This clears temporary error states. For Godrej top-load models, some have a manual reset button inside the top panel — check your user manual.

My Godrej top-load shows E2 but there is no visible filter — where is it?

Some Godrej top-load models don’t have an accessible drain filter. In these cases, E2 is more likely caused by a kinked drain hose or a blocked drain outlet. Check the drain hose routing from the machine to the outlet pipe.
