I have a zanussi jetstream 1400 washing machine and have error e20. Despite trying various settings to kickstart the machine, it will not drain the water. Ive cleaned out the filter (i do this regularly anyway) and looked at hoses at back and underneath and they appear ok. One more piece of puzzle - I put the machine on an empty boil wash to clean it only yesterday. Not sure if thats contributed somehow?Any ideas what I need to do - Im lost without it?

E20 means problem with drain water phase
Only two things need to be checked:

- Drain pump could be clogged or no power supply (the last means
faulty drain pump, faulty electronic or wiring between drain pump
and electronic.
- Your home drainage system (in the wall) is clogged (This is very
easy to check visually, disconnect the drain hose from your
siphon and put water in some container or in washbasin.)

SOURCE: machine can't get rid of the water gives no drain message

The motor is burnt out. When it is cool it will pump water out, but as it heats up and the insulation on the windings break-down is short-circuits and stops.

SOURCE: filter needs cleaning as water does not empty

I was unable to locate your filter in your machine but if it would help after you clean the filter you could install an inline filter between the valve and the hose. This is an RV filter it just screws on like the hose.

The FP12GKE shows just how easy it is. Any RV filter will work.

ZANUSSI JETSTREAM, CODE E20 appears with every wash near the end of cycle

Hi,
E20 is a draining error.
Check the filter.You need to take the filter out, empty it of all lint and replace it. It may have water trapped in already, so get a cloth ready to soak up excess liquid! Also, make sure when you put it back in you have tightened it enough to avoid leaking but not too much that you cannot get it back out
If still the problem persists then the problem is with the draining pump.Replace it and this wont come again

Thank You

E20 code. Not draining

E20 is a general error code to get to the real problem try this..
Reading Error Codes 1. Wake the washer by pressing any button. 2. Wait 5 seconds. 3. Press and hold the START/PAUSE and CANCEL buttons simultaneously. As long as the buttons are held, the failure code will appear in the display as an “E” followed by two numbers, a number and a letter or two letters. The control will beep and the Door Lock, Wash, Rinse, and Final Spin indicator lights will flash. let me know what code come up... hope it helps

Zanussi Electrolux ZWF 1430 W (E20 error)

Check water "forreign object trap". It's under the lid at the bottom of the machine. First drain water by pulling out the hose and pull out the plug. Then unscrew the trap. Have had this E20 error twice. First it was two coins there, next it was a big paperclip. Have worked fine ever since.11_20_2011_8_57_27_am.jpg
