I will try and help with this problem about Siemens WM14E3F1/06 Washing Machine,
Hi Andrew,
Sorry to hear about the issue with your Siemens washing machine. Error codes E16, F16, and sometimes F34 on Bosch, Neff, and Siemens machines usually point to door lock errors. This could be due to a problem with the door lock itself, the pin system on the door that fits into the lock, or possibly a wiring fault. Occasionally, though rarely, it might be an issue with the printed circuit board.
Start by checking the door pin, the door lock mechanism, and the wiring. If everything seems fine, consider replacing the door lock as they are not too expensive and this might solve the problem.
I've included a video below on how to replace door interlocks and an exploded diagram of your machine. Use the reference number in the diagram to find the part you need in the parts list at the bottom of the page. This will give you the genuine Siemens part number, which you can use with our European distributor or shop around using that part number. Always ensure that any part you purchase fits your machine model.
I hope this helps you.
