Hello Walter, thank you for your post!

An error code E57 could mean a number of issues, but primarily that the motor is overheating or a higher-than-usual motor current caused by other issues. Typically, an experienced technician would remove the belt to check the motor and motor pulley to ensure all is in working order first. Their next step would be to check the tub pulley and tub bearings. Last items they would examine would be the drive motor and speed control board by ohm measurement. Once the tech has ruled out a number of possibilities, he or she can pinpoint the exact problem and the necessary part to fix the issue. Since parts can often be quite costly, I would personally recommend reaching out to a qualified tech who can accurately diagnose the issue your washer is experiencing.

Hope this proves helpful!

SOURCE: Error code E10 on the

E10 is a timeout code. I found the answer on google by refining my search criteria. The tap was not turned on enough for the washer to fill up in time before the timeout was reached. After restarting the washer and turning the tap on further, the washer cycle completed without error.

SOURCE: Stops at spin cycle

Open the lid to the washer and let it down gently. You should hear a click when the lid closes. If you don't hear it, the lid switch might be faulty and this will prevent the washer from going into spin. Not an expensive repair.

SOURCE: Electrolux front load washer door won't

First try to reset the lock unplugged the power machine for a few (10) minutes (maybe release the interlock door switch). If this work, them its possible that you need door latch replacement.

To do it, turn off power, unplug at the mains. Drag the machine out so you can see the back. Remove the 2 screws that hold the top on, pull back or tap the top forward (depending on the model) to unclip it. Peer inside. You will see the door switch inside the chassis exactly in line with the door handle on the outside. See if you manually make the mechanism release, or if you have a stubby philips screwdriver, you can probably unscrew the switch complely.

Keep us updated.

Why would machine throw a PF error code in spin cycle?

The PF error code indicates "power failure" condition. The fact that it was indicating on the display while fully loaded tells me that you have a bad electrical connection somewhere on the machines PC boards or supply.
The spin cycle is also triggering this condition when the vibration on the machine shakes the "bad" connection and causes a brief loss of power to the machine.

Nothing happens when the 'Start Button' is pressed on Electrolux Front load washer

Good Morning friend, thank you for your post!

From my understanding your Electrolux washer is not starting no matter what buttons are pushed. This could be a possible problem with your keypad or control panel. I noticed that you have already performed a reset and that was done when you unplugged your washer for 15 minutes. I would now recommend having a technician out to perform a diagnosis. In order to do so you would need to disassemble your washer and test each component to make sure they are working properly. The technician would have the appropriate tools needed to do this accurately. If you need some assistance locating a technician you should be able to visit the manufacturer's website for additional assistance. I hope this information is helpful for you. -Matt

Why Electrolux front load making knocking sounds during spin cycle. Model ewf1087

Good Morning Friend,

I understand your Electrolux washer, model# EWF1087, is making knocking sounds during the spin cycle. In researching your model number, I show that your appliance was manufactured in Australia. If this were manufactured in the U.S., I would suggest making sure that the load was balanced. Balance your wash load and if you are still having trouble, I suggest contacting the manufacturer in Australia. Hope this is helpful.

Electrolux front load washer drain

Good Afternoon Friend,

I see that your Electrolux washer, model# EWFLS70JSS, is having trouble draining. First, I would start by checking the drain hose, to make sure there are no kinks in it and it is not clogged. Secondly, I would make sure that the drain hose is between 6-8 inches down inside the drainpipe. If it is too far inside the drainpipe, it can cause slow or no drainage. Thirdly, I would make sure that the drainpipe is not clogged. Finally, I suggest resetting your washer. You will do this by either unplugging it or shutting the power off at your homes circuit breaker for 2-3 minutes. When the power is restored, run a wash. If your washer is still experiencing a no drainage issue, I suggest contacting your local authorized technician. Hope this is helpful.

I have an Electrolux washer model EWFLS70JSS. The bleach dispenses during the rinse cycle rather the wash cycle. I thank you in adavance for your help.

This is a siphoning problem. Please clean out the dispenser cup(s) as much as you can and try again. You may need to clean the unit and run vinegar through instead of bleach to unclog any small components.

LG Tromm washer wont spin through the spin cycle and reads error ue. I have tried to balance the load several times and still get the same error.

This error generally happens when people try to run a bulky load, like a coat, rug, pillow, etc., using a high speed spin. For these loads, choose the low speed spin. After the cycle completes, if you think the clothes are too wet, power up the machine again but instead of choosing a cycle, just push the spin speed button until it shows the next higher spin speed (usually about 14 minutes will show on the display) and push start. The machine will usually be able to get to a faster speed now, as the clothes have some of the water spun out of them from the earlier low speed spin, allowing the machine to reach a higher spin speed without the Unbalance Error code showing up. Of course, you want to make sure the machine is on a solid floor with all the legs adjusted properly also.
