Error code F56 means that your washing machine isn’t reaching the required spin speed. Normally, the spin speed should be at least 450 rpm, but it stays below 400 rpm.
This can have several causes:
Overdosing: If you use too much detergent, it can create excessive foam, which affects the spinning process.
Drainage issues: If the water doesn’t drain properly, the machine can’t reach the needed spin speed.
Faulty drum drive motor (M5): If the motor that drives the drum is faulty, this can also cause the error.
Defective power electronics: If the washing machine’s power electronics are faulty, this can also lead to the error you’re seeing.
