What to do when E12 shows on the washerKind of codeDrive motor
The control told the drum to turn and it did not turn as expected — a slipped or broken belt, a worn coupler, or a motor or its speed sensor reading out of range. The belt and the connections are checked before the motor.

The wash finishes but the drum barely turns at the end, and the clothes come out dripping wet.
