Haier HLC1700 washer/dryer combo troubleshooting

Published specification

What is true of this model and changes how you fix it

• Hardware — manufacturer product page
  2.0 cu ft, 24-inch, ventless non-vented condensing dryer (all-in-one washer+dryer, water hookup and 120V outlet only — no external vent needed), 11 wash cycles, 3 dry cycles, stainless steel drum.
• Type — COMPACT all-in-one (washer + ventless dryer)
  A COMPACT Haier all-in-one that washes and dries in one small drum with a VENTLESS (condensing) dryer — no exhaust duct, made for apartments and tight spaces. A 'not drying' complaint is the condensing dryer path, not a vent, and combo drying is slow and gentle by design.
• Small capacity is the point
  The drum is small, so loads must be small — overloading is the usual cause of poor washing AND poor drying, since drying especially needs room to tumble. Dry less than a full wash load for complete results.
• Ventless drying
  Condensing drying uses cold water to remove moisture, so the water supply must be on to dry, and there is a lint filter and condenser path to keep clean; a gradual drop in drying is usually maintenance, not a failed heater.
• Cycles
  11 wash cycles and 3 dry cycles, with a 24-hour delay start, a pre-wash option and a wash-only option.
• Ventless condensing drying
  It dries by condensing moisture, with no vent, and runs on a normal 120 V plug. Drying a large load takes far longer than on a vented dryer.
• Dispensers
  Three: detergent, fabric softener and bleach.
• Also covered
  HWD100 combination washer/dryer, combination washer/dryer codes (from Haier's support article): Haier's chart for its combination washer/dryers: Err1 door not closed, Err2 not draining (check the drain pump filter behind the door at the bottom and that the drain hose is not pushed too far into the standpipe), Err5 not sensing a full fill, and E1 cannot drain within 4 minutes, E2 cannot lock the door after 20 seconds, E4 water level not reached after 8 minutes, E8 water above the warning level.
• Also covered
  HWD100 combination washer/dryer, fill and lint: Err5 means check both water lines are connected and open, and Haier says flood-safe inlet hoses should not be used because they restrict flow. E13 is caused by lint buildup, and Haier suggests washing and drying one dish towel with a cup of white vinegar and confirming cold water is connected.
• Also covered
  HWD100 combination washer/dryer, service-only codes: Err7, Err8, Err9, E10, F7 (motor circuit), F9 (dryer sensor), FA (water level sensor), FC (no feedback from driver), Fd (dryer heating abnormal) and FE (dryer motor abnormal) all say service is required. Unb is an unbalanced load: spin on low and cancel drying.
• Also covered
  HWD100 combination washer/dryer, scope: This is Haier's family-level chart for its combination washer/dryers rather than a page written for one model number, so confirm the codes against your own manual before acting on a code Haier lists as service-only.
