Error Code: E33 Difficulty: Hard
Problem: Inconsistent operation of water level sensors.
How to Fix E33 Error (Step-by-Step)
- Turn off the circuit breaker for the washer and shut off the water faucets.
- Open the top panel of the washer to get to the water level sensors (pressure switches).
- Inspect the wiring going to both sensors. Look for any loose plugs, frayed wires, or signs of corrosion on the terminals.
- Disconnect each wiring harness, clean the contacts with a small brush or contact cleaner if they look dirty, and plug them back in securely.
- Examine the air hoses attached to the sensors. Make sure they are not pinched, cracked, or clogged with residue.
- If wiring and hoses are in good condition, one of the sensors is likely defective and must be replaced.
- Replace the suspect sensor, reassemble the machine, and test its operation.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
What to Check Next on This Electrolux Washer
Focused repair path: washer fill, drain, spin, lock, 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 washer 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 washer 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.
