Error Code: 01-24 Difficulty: Easy
Problem: The delayed start option has been activated. The number indicates the hours of delay remaining.
How to Fix 01-24 Error (Step-by-Step)
- The number you see on the display, from 1 to 24, represents the number of hours remaining until the wash cycle begins.
- If you wish to cancel the delayed start, press the ‘Cancel’ or ‘Start/Cancel’ button on your dishwasher’s control panel.
- The dishwasher will then revert to its normal standby mode, ready for you to select a wash cycle.
- To start a wash cycle immediately, choose your desired cycle and options, then press the ‘Start’ button.
- If you intended to use the delayed start, no action is necessary. The dishwasher will automatically begin the cycle when the countdown reaches zero.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
- Check for simple blockages (lint screen, drain path, or filter) and clean anything you find.
What to Check Next on This Electrolux Dishwasher
Focused repair path: dishwasher fill, drain, wash, heat, latch, sensor, and control checks. Do not treat the fault as reset-only if it keeps returning; use the failed function to choose the next test.
- Disconnect power before opening panels, then confirm whether the Electrolux dishwasher repeats the same code after a clean reset.
- Match the symptom to the part of the cycle or function that fails: fill, drain, heat, cool, spin, latch, ignite, fan, sensor, or control response.
- Inspect simple causes first: airflow, water supply, drain path, door closure, filter, venting, wiring connectors, and visible damage.
- Use meter testing or service diagnostics before replacing electronic controls, because wiring, switches, sensors, and loads can mimic board failure.
- Use the complete Electrolux dishwasher model number from the appliance tag before ordering any model-specific part.
Check, inspect, clean, test, measure, remove, reconnect, clear, and replace parts only when the symptom supports that path. If these checks point toward a part, verify the complete Electrolux model number from the appliance tag before ordering.
