EC: Thermister abnormal error

Switch off the power/reconnect and try again
If error code persists a service call is advisable -

I had a similar error (E0 I think) from a Hotpoint washer dryer, which
was also a thermistor error and E0 meant the machine thought it was
freezing so had shutdown, turned out that years of vibration had broken
the wire leading to the thermistor, a bit of solder and heatshrink
sleeve later it was all OK again.
