How to Fix Electrolux Washer Error EF0

Error Code: EF0 Difficulty: Easy

Problem: Water Leakage / Suds / Blocked Filter – General error for water leakage, excessive suds, or a blocked filter.

How to Fix EF0 Error (Step-by-Step)

1. First, cancel the current wash cycle and turn off the washer.
2. Check around and under the washer for any signs of water leakage. If you see water, unplug the machine and soak up the water before proceeding.
3. Locate the small door on the bottom front of the washer; this is the filter access panel. Place a shallow pan and a towel in front of it to catch any residual water.
4. Open the panel and slowly unscrew the filter cap, allowing the water to drain into the pan. Once drained, completely remove the filter.
5. Clean the filter of any lint, hair, or debris. Also, check the filter housing for any foreign objects and remove them.
6. Re-insert the clean filter and screw the cap on tightly. Close the access panel.
7. If the issue was excessive suds, run a rinse and spin cycle with no clothes or detergent to clear out the excess foam.
8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
