The AEG brand was born in Berlin, Germany in 1887 and for over one century, this household appliance manufacturer has been creating appliances such as washing machines with precision, innovative functionalities and overall high quality.
However, when you have an AEG washing machine that starts to malfunction, you’ve got a small problem on your hands. If you’ve thrown away your user manual, then you won’t be able to accurately diagnose the fault code and determine the best way forward.
Luckily, in this article, we set out a quick and easy to use guide for you to help ensure that you can read your machine better and take the right steps to having it repaired correctly. Let’s take a closer look.
AEG washing machine error codes
Just like most modern appliances, AEG washing machines have an electronic display screen at the front where sometimes error or fault codes are displayed. This enables you to accurately diagnose the issue in question and take the right corrective steps to redress the problem. Here is a brief breakdown of the various different error codes, whether they are AEG Lavamat error codes or others, and how to address them.
- Error codes C1/E10/E11: an AEG washing machine error code E10 signals that there is a problem with taking in water. There is either not enough water being taken in or there are problems with the drain.
- Error code C2/E20/E21: when you see an AEG washing machine error code E20, it indicates pumping problems. This can manifest itself in terms of your washing machine not draining, the drum not turning or your appliance making an unusual noise because of a blockage related to your drain pump.
- Error code C3/E30: you will notice this error when there is an excess amount of water at the bottom or inside of your AEG washing machine.
- Error codes C9/F9: these error codes indicate that there is an imbalance during a spin cycle.
- Error code E40/E41: such error codes typically arise when the door or lid of your AEG washing machine is not closed properly. Alternatively, they could appear if your washer is overloaded or there is a problem with your appliance’s door lock.
- Error code E60: this and any other code beginning with “E6” is a signal that there is a heating problem with your washing machine.
- Error code E80: with this error, your cycle selector was set incorrectly. Alternatively, it may appear when your washing machine started with a cycle selector that was set in the middle of two wash cycles.
- Error codes E90/E91/E92/E93/E94: these error codes signal configuration/communication problems with the electronic parts of your washing machine..
Other common AEG washing machine error codes
Apart from the common AEG error codes mentioned above, you should also be aware that there are some letter-number combinations that may appear from time to time. Knowing what they mean is the first step in knowing how to address the issue. Here’s a brief breakdown of what you might encounter:
- Error codes EAO/EA0: this is a drum position sensor (DPS) fault.
- Error codes Eb0/Ebo: when you see this code, it is an indication that there may be problems with your power supply or your voltage being too low.
- Error codes EF0/EFo/EF3: Quite an easy error code to address, all that this signals is that you’ve used too much detergent in the wash. To address this, simply use less detergent.
- Error codes EHO/EH0: these are another set of codes that indicate a problem with the power supply.
- Error code EH1: when you see this error code, it means that the frequency of your power supply is out of range.
- Error code EH2: in such a case of seeing this error code, it is an indication that your supply voltage is too high.
- Error code EH3: this error code is a signal that your supply voltage is too low.
