20 Most Recent Equator EZ 3600 CEE Front Load Washer / Dryer - Page 4 Questions & Answers

It's lint stuck in the dryer that drastically lowers the efficiency.
From another site I found the solution:
 
1. UNPLUG UNIT
2, remove 4 screws top back edge of top panel and lift off panel.
3. blower will be toward the right rear of unit. To save a hassle later, take a sharp object and scrib an index mark across where the blower meets the plenum, it will help you line it up later.
4. there are four 7mm bolt-head screws holding the blower and blower motor onto the heater plenum. One of the screw is almost impossible to see, but there are 4. I used a "flex-shaft" socket to get them out. This can be a real PITA.
5. carefully lift blower motor out of plenum. You will probably need to shove the whole tub unit to the left to get clearence. IF YOU OPT TO DISCONNECT THE BLOWER WIRES MAKE A DIAGRAM OF WHERE THEY CONNECT!!
6. I usually use a thin knife to scrape each of the vanes on the blower. Then vac everything out and use your hand to check for smutz in the plenum.
7. THE FAN ONLY FITS ONE WAY ON THE PLENUM. be sure to test fit to see if all the holes line up.
8. When motor is back in place, spin the little cooling fan on top of motor to make sure it's not binding. I usually test the unit by plugging it in and starting dryer to make see it runs.
9. Put top of unit back in place.

Try checking the door latch and sensor.

Most likely, the door latch isn't functioning properly.

Check the filter! If it's full, it won't drain properly.

you need to open the back and unscrew the clamp to take the drain hose off. if you are lucky, that is the problem. there is another hose that could be clogged between the filter and the pump which is more difficult to get to. or it may be that the pump needs to be disassembled and cleaned to get rid of any obstructions. or you may need to replace the pump entirely. service for these appliances is rather expensive...at least in ny. good luck.

if it is after the wash cycle, it is normal to take a few minutes before the door will open. if it is after a dry cyle, there is a problem with the door mechanics

i think you will find the carbon brushes r worn out they r mounted on the side of the motor held on by 2 5.5mm nuts or 2 screws 1 brush on each side of the motor switch off at the mains b4 you start work good luck

It would be best to include a model number as there are various models of this. That aside, it is possible that the communication cable between the display panel and the electronics has dislodged. That is item 7 in the attached manual: file:///C:/Users/Donald/AppData/Local/Temp/4000.pdf

If you can see water in the tub, the machine is not draining the water out, and preventing the door from opening, It could also be a faulty door interlock switch. I hope this helps?
