Main codes

Sooner or later, problems occur with any household appliance. Today, most manufacturers equip their devices with a self-diagnostic function.

If you have a washing machine "Electrolux", its malfunction can be seen on the display. And if they are able to correctly decipher, then coping with the breakdown will be much easier. Consider the main codes and the reasons for their appearance on the instrument panel.

E11

No water supply. If you see this code, check the voltage on the winding of the water pump. Also, this combination may indicate insufficient pressure in the pump or filter obstruction.

E 21, 22, 23, 24

There is no draining. Such an error code of the washing machine "Electrolux" appears on the display if after 10 minutes from the beginning of the start of the discharge program it has not started.

To diagnose and eliminate causes, check the drain pump: ring its winding, and also check pipes and hoses for blockage.

E 31, 32

Signal of failure in the pressure sensor. It is necessary to ring all the electrical circuits.

E41-E45

Problems with the hatch. Perhaps it is ajar, or the latch has broken. If the door is all right, the contacts of the manhole lock are pierced for breakdowns.

The code indicates the presence of water in the pallet of the device. Check that the hose is properly seated and that its joints are sealed.

E 33-39

Malfunctions in pressure and protection sensors. The first thing to check is the state of the sensors and electric circuits. For this, they can be ringed for breakdowns.

E 61

This error code for the washing machine "Electrolux" means that the appliance does not heat the water sufficiently or does not heat it at all. In this case, first check whether the heater is OK.

EF1, EF2

Such alphanumeric combinations signal a filter clogging. It is necessary to disassemble the device and clean both the filter system and the pump.

EF4

No water pressure or water enters the unit. Perhaps this is a sensor strip, but most likely something happened with a pomp.

ЕН1, ЕН2, ЕН3

There is no mains voltage. It is necessary to check the entire power circuit of the device.

Of course, this is not all the mistakes that can be found on the display of your washing machine. A more complete list can be checked with the manufacturer, or refer to the instruction manual for your model. Part of the problems can be completely eliminated on their own, but with some problems it is better to immediately turn to specialists.

In any case, if you do not know how to act when a fault occurs - it is better to contact the service. If you decide to repair yourself - you should remember about safety.

  1. Isolate all parts of the device that are live. Otherwise, not only the device, but you can suffer.
  2. Remember that the device is connected to the network only if there is a ground connection.

  4. After troubleshooting, the test run of the machine is carried out. In this case, it should be remembered that the device should be set exactly, according to the level.
  5. Also, when testing, do not start the machine empty. Put in the tank at least a towel.
  6. Washing machine is an electrical appliance that works with water. In order to avoid an accident, be sure to check the tightness of all drain and fill hoses, as well as the absence of water on the body of the device.

These are the main points to consider when repairing the unit. Error codes "Electrolux" will help you diagnose a breakdown, and it will have to be repaired by yourself or with the help of a master.
