Panasonic Washing Machine H07 error code

Difficulty: Hard · Cost: $100–$300 · Duration: Requires professional service

The H07 error means your Panasonic washing machine detected a problem with the motor tacho — the sensor that measures how fast the wash motor is spinning. Without an accurate speed reading the machine cannot control the spin safely and stops the cycle. This can be caused by a wiring fault or a failed motor. A technician will need to inspect the motor wiring and tacho before determining whether the motor needs replacing.

Common causes

  • Motor tacho sensor has malfunctioned or failed
  • Wiring to the motor or tacho sensor is loose or damaged
  • Wash motor has failed causing the tacho to read an abnormal signal

How to fix it

  1. 1

    Unplug the machine and do not attempt to use it

  2. 2

    Contact a qualified technician to inspect the motor wiring and tacho sensor

  3. 3

    If wiring checks out correctly the motor may need replacing
