Appliance Error Codes Introduction
Appliance error codes are messages
They are displayed by your cooker, oven, hob, dishwasher, washing machine or other household appliance when the machine detects a problem. They can appear as letters, numbers, combinations of both, flashing lights or warning symbols,
depending on the manufacturer and model. Appliance error codes do not always identify one specific failed part, but it can provide an important starting point when diagnosing a fault. For example, a code may indicate a heating problem, drainage issue, temperature fault, door problem, sensor failure or electrical issue. Before ordering a replacement part, it is important to check the exact model number or model identifier of your appliance, as the meaning of a particular code can vary between models.
Appliance error codes can also help engineers understand the symptoms reported by the appliance and decide which checks should be carried out. Some faults may be resolved by simple troubleshooting, such as checking the power supply, cleaning a filter, ensuring a door is properly closed or resetting the appliance.
However, electrical faults and more serious problems should be inspected by a suitably qualified engineer. Our appliance error codes guide is designed to help you understand common fault messages, find relevant troubleshooting information and determine what to check next before purchasing appliance spare parts for your particular appliance and model.
Before ordering a spare part
Always check your appliance’s model number before buying a replacement part. The model number helps identify the correct component for your exact appliance. Should you need help fitting a replacement part, contact our highly recommended appliance engineer
