Dishwasher

View all 2 codes →
CodeMeaning
CLEAN-FAILThe wash system can't strip food off your dishes because water isn't circulating properly, isn't hot enough, or the detergent won't dissolve and activate. Something in the chain between fill, heat, spray, and drain is broken.
moderate
FLOOR-LIGHT-FLASHINGThe flashing beam on the floor indicates a system error, usually triggered by the leak detection float or a drainage failure.
high

Dryer

View all 1 codes →
CodeMeaning
E64E64 means the control board detected a fault in the heating element circuit. Either the coil's broken and you've got an open circuit with no continuity at all, or the coil's sagging and touching the metal heater box, which shorts it to ground. Either way, the board cuts power to prevent further damage.
high

Oven

View all 8 codes →
CodeMeaning
E-PREHEAT-FAILThe control board is sending the signal to heat, but something in the actual heating circuit is broken. Either the element snapped, the gas igniter can't pull enough current to open the safety valve, or a thermal fuse cut the whole circuit. The board thinks it's working. It's not.
high
E15The E15 error code indicates a communication failure between the main power control board and the user interface (UI) display board.
high
ELECTROLUX-OVEN-DIAGThe Electrolux oven repair manual refers to the technical service procedures used to enter diagnostic mode, retrieve fault codes, and test internal components like heating elements and sensors.
moderate
ERR-CODEThe Err prefix means the control board detected a fault, usually in the temperature sensor circuit, the communication link between the main board and the user interface board, or a heat condition that's gone outside normal operating limits.
high
F050F050 means the main power control board and the user interface board have stopped talking to each other over their internal data line. The oven detects that the handshake is gone and throws a lockout code to prevent unsafe operation.
high
F11The F11 error code on an Electrolux oven signifies a shorted or stuck key on the touch control panel or user interface assembly. The control board triggers this fault when it detects a continuous signal from a specific button for more than 30 to 60 seconds.
moderate
F14F14 on an Electrolux oven indicates the control board's EEPROM has failed. Electrolux uses the same error code convention as Frigidaire (Electrolux owns Frigidaire).
high
NO-HEAT-ELECTROLUXThe oven's control board is sending the right signals but the heating circuit isn't responding. Either a physical component like an element or fuse has failed, or the board itself can't close the relay that sends 240 volts to the heating coils.
high

Refrigerator

View all 11 codes →
CodeMeaning
ALARM-BEEPThat beeping is the electronic control board firing off an audible alert because something crossed a threshold it doesn't like. Could be a temperature spike, a door that's been open too long, or a power failure it recorded. Basically the board's way of saying something's off and you need to go look at it.
moderate
ALARM-BEEPINGThe refrigerator's control board detected something outside normal operating parameters, like a door that's been ajar too long, an internal temp that climbed above safe levels, or a power interruption. It fires an audible alert and logs an icon on the display so you know which specific problem you're dealing with.
moderate
BEEPING-ALARMThe beeping is your control board saying something's wrong with the internal environment. Could be the door's not sealed, the temp climbed too high, or there was a power interruption. Basically the fridge is telling you your food might be at risk, and it won't shut up until you acknowledge the fault and fix whatever triggered it.
moderate
ELECTROLUX-RESETWhen the control board takes a voltage hit or loses communication with a sensor mid-cycle, it sometimes just gets stuck. The reset clears all the temporary memory registers on the main PCB and forces every component to re-announce itself on startup. Think of it like rebooting your router. Same idea, just colder.
low
ELECTROLUX-WF-ISSUEThe fridge is basically telling you water can't move properly through the filter cartridge. Either the carbon block is clogged, the filter isn't opening the bypass valve, or there's a pressure problem upstream. Pretty simple system when you break it down.
low
ER-RESETA reset clears the electronic control board's memory, wiping temporary error codes and restoring normal operation after a power interruption, firmware hang, or accumulated sensor alert that the board can't clear on its own.
low
FILTER-REPLACEThe water filter replacement process involves swapping out a saturated carbon media cartridge to ensure proper water flow, ice production, and contaminant removal in Electrolux French Door or Side-by-Side units.
low
FILTER-RESETIt's a countdown timer built into the control board, not an actual sensor. When it hits zero, six months or roughly 200 gallons, whichever comes first, it flips the light red. The fridge has no idea if there's a new filter in there or not.
low
HIThe HI alarm fires when the internal sensors detect the fresh food section climbing above 55°F, or the freezer going above 20°F, for an extended stretch. The control board is basically saying the cabinet can't hold temp and something's preventing it from cooling down properly.
high
PFPF stands for Power Failure. The control board tracks power supply continuity, and when it detects the power got cut and came back, it throws this code and holds the display there until you manually acknowledge it. It won't clear on its own.
low
PFPF stands for Power Failure. The control board monitors incoming 120V power constantly, and the second that feed drops and comes back, it flags it and holds the alert on the display until you manually clear it. Nothing's broken inside the fridge itself.
low

Washer

View all 11 codes →
CodeMeaning
E11The washer did not reach its required water level within the allowed fill time. The control board detected a fill timeout and stopped the cycle to prevent an indefinitely running water valve.
high
E13The E13 error code indicates that the washer has detected a water leak in the base tray, triggering the anti-flood float switch.
high
E13The flood sensor in the base pan of the washer has detected standing water, triggering the overflow protection system. The machine immediately stops filling and activates the drain pump to protect your floor.
critical
E21The control board timed out waiting for the pressure switch to confirm an empty tub. It powered the drain pump, waited the full cycle, and the water level sensor said the drum was still full. So it killed the cycle to protect the pump motor and keep your floor dry.
high
E21The washer failed to drain the water from the tub within the allowed time. The drain pump ran but could not remove water fast enough, indicating a blockage, a restriction in the drain path, or a failing pump.
high
E35The water level pressure sensor is reading outside its expected range. Basically, the control board can't figure out how much water's actually in the tub, so it stops the machine to avoid a potential overflow. It reads air pressure through a small tube connected to the tub sump, and something's throwing off that signal.
high
E41The door lock actuator failed to engage or disengage within the expected time window. The washer won't start a cycle without a confirmed lock signal, and it can't end a cycle without a confirmed unlock either.
moderate
HUBThis is a reference hub for all fault codes on Electrolux EFLS series front-load washers. When the board detects something outside its normal range, whether it's water pressure, door position, or drain timing, it throws a code and shuts down to protect itself and your floor.
low
NOT-DRAININGThe control board detected that water didn't drain within the expected time window, usually 8-10 minutes. So it locks the door and flags E21 to protect the motor from running dry. Basically, water's still sitting in the drum when it shouldn't be, and the machine gave up waiting.
moderate
NOT-SPINNINGThe drum stopped rotating during the spin cycle. The machine detected either a loss of motor speed feedback (that's the E52 code), a broken or slipped drive belt, or a door latch that won't confirm it's closed, so the control board cut power to the motor as a safety measure.
moderate
SU D5The SU D5 code (which often looks like 'SUD' on the display) indicates that the control board has detected excessive soap suds. This foam creates air pockets that prevent the drain pump from removing water, causing the cycle to pause or fail.
moderate

Washing-machine

View all 1 codes →
CodeMeaning
E11E11 is a fill timeout. The control board watched the water level sensor for 8-10 minutes, the tub didn't reach the required level in time, and the board shut the cycle down. Something's restricting water from getting in fast enough.
moderate
