AEG Favorit 60870 Dishwasher not starting

This may be a re-post if it is sorry but my previous question did not seem to get posted. I have a problem with my AEG Favorit 60870 it wont start but there is no error code being displayed. The on off button illuminates then flashes twice goes off for a second then repeats. The fault occurred part way through a wash for no obvious reason. I have emptied the left over water from the machine and tried the tilt reset method with no luck. I am guessing it is going to be a control panel fault and assume that would mean replacing the complete panel meaning a new washer would be a more prudent option. Any advice on this issue would be gratefully recieved.

Matthew, in most cases when a circuit board repeats the same action over and over, there was a short and loss of communication with associated controllers. Obviously you have power to the control unit, so that means the instructions from the controller to the solenoids is lacking. You are correct in assuming the board needs replacement, however you must determine is the cost for replacement is worth the time and effort. An old machine means one repair after the other. If its relatively new; then it may be worth it.

i fixed the problem by tipping the machine over slightly, as suggested by other members, about a pint of water came out the bottom and it now seems to work perfectly.

SOURCE: AEG Dishwasher FAVORIT 3A Error Message C3

If you open a sidepanel and look at the bottom of the machine you see a brown device with a piece of white foam,this is the leak prevention system.
Push foam down and the error code should be cleared.
Make sure you there's no water left on the bottom of machine

SOURCE: Hi, I have an aeg 60870 dishwasher showing error

Sounds like the Anti-Flood system activated (polystireen float at base of machiene coupled to a micro switch) the purpose of this system is to put the drain pump on and stops any other function on the machiene. The anti lood system activates when any amount of water appears on the bottom (caused by leaky pipe / blokked pipes / spills etc.) . Dry the water and rectify the leak. This should solve the problem.

Could be: faulty power board (completly or only relay for heating element), faulty wiring between heating element and power board, faulty heating element (interruption, short circuit or current leakage,on some heaters faulty thermal protection).

Depending on the model, the display shows the i60 fault code or the LED end of the program will flash 6 times (only model without display).

Aeg 60870 dishwasher water not getting in

The most common cause of a fault "i10" is closed valve on the water supply line. So this failure indicates a problem with filling of water.
Possible error causes:
Closed water tap, Inlet valve faulty, inlet hose bent, softener system clogged, pressure switch or pressure switch hose obstructed or leaking, wiring from pressure switch to printed circuit board (PCB), wiring from inlet valve to PCB and finally PCB.

Problems disconnecting the wastepipe on an AEG Dishwasher

Pour some bleach into the stinky backwash. I know that this is not good for the environment but it will take the stench away while you get a new dishwasher. Sorry but you have plumbing problems out of my range.

Aeg 60800 dishwasher showing c2 on panel,water still in bottom of dishwasher. will not start.

from other forum

Not pumping or pumping too slow. Check for blockages in pipework, filter and pump. If all clear, replace pump.
Curing the fault on these machines doesn't always get rid of the error code though. Some faults are locked in.
If you find this, post back and I'll try to help.

Dishwasher keeps cutting out

Has the door got heavier recently?
Mine had a spring break which fell onto the electrics and shorted them. Unplug and empty it, then tip it up to see if you can see a loose spring. If it is then replace or re-fit the old spring, I have posted instructions and pictures here:
