Bad door switch.

Had this exact problem (fills, empties and then light blinks three times) and found that the heating element was burnt out. Very easy to replace.

Worked out the problem - the heating element was burnt out. Very easy to replace.

Hi, just solved the same problem with our aeg lavamat w 1020. Try checking the filter tray (or port) at the bottom left-hand corner of your machine. This was our problem and as soon as the blockage was removed the machine could be pumped out. It appears to be running OK now.

It really is a two man job and I put my back doing this with him. The bearings were much larger than previously encountered. Very! basically you have get out the residue water, release the door seal and (pipe attached) spit the m/c casing, unclip all hoses attached to drum, unclip all drum wiring ,remove belt (note position) remove motor &, lay to one side, withdraw nylon pins from shock absorbers, Look for and remove the little earthing cable set just inside the pulley rim. Carefully release drum/case supporting springs (mark positions top and bottom) and, drop drum/case onto some blocks and lift/pull/take out (really needs two people) (minding other modules). Split drum/case ring of bolts, remove front half (careful here not to damage the heater). take half containing drum outside, lay drum face down and use a drift to hit the socket headed screw securing pulley hard to shake up the taper. Remove this screw (needs good quality allen key) and use wedges to the force off the drum drive pulley. Support drum casing on blocks or put drum on its side, support the drum if on its side and use a heavy drift and hammer to knock through the drum spindle. Careful now to avoid grating hands on the sharp drum holes. With drum now removed place the casing drive end up (ensuring protuding heater is clear of the ground!) put a large bolt (head down) inside the first bearing and rest it on the edge of the inner bearing. Carefully working round the inner bearing edge use a hammer and the bolt head as a drift to knock out the inner (the larger of the two bearings and inturn the drum seal) (note seal postion). Turn over the casing and knock out the outer bearing from inside the drum casing. Clean all and check condition of spider/spindle & renew if damaged. Fit the new outer bearing then the new inner followed by the seal. Dig out the old and renew the (green) O ring seal between the drum casing halves. Replace all, but give a quick test run before replacing casing to ensure belt is positioned correctly. The job would have cost £115 which I think is well worth paying someone to do....


Thnx.

hi! remove your powder draw, it should just pull out with a wiggle,give it a good clean in hot water, before you put it back give the draw hola a god clean with a bottle brush and hot water! good luck

These machines do not release the door immediately after wash cycle is complete. After final spin cycle wait until you hear a click sound.The door will then be able to be opened. This takes uproximately three minutes.

Just pull out the dispenser quickly. May be a bit hard to get out.

Press & hold 'end of cycle' for 5 or more seconds. Disconnect from mains for some time, or over night. Then re-start afresh the program.

For user's manual: Click on your brand name (below FIXYA) on this website, type in your model number & search. You will get a shortlist; click on your model, below the page u will get Manual/Guides. Click on the blue, & your manual is on line. Wait for at least 3 minutes after the wash is complete, to open the door; do not force the door. The door will not open immediately on the wash being completed.

It is probably between the clothes tub and the outer tub. To remove it from the outer tub port, open the washer's main access panel and remove the large-diameter rubber hose that connects the pump to the bottom of the outer tub and try to remove the clothing through the port. Good luck

The fault code that you have on your washing machine is in fact Fb (fault block?) and not F6. Your machine is telling you that the water level has gone over the safety level more than 6 times, ie there is a problem with the pressure switch or a problem with a blockage or even a split hose in the air pressure system, ie the thin tube. Before you check these things, have you checked the filter at the bottom of the machine as this can cause the machine to flood if blocked, its worth a try. The pressure tube is a thin tube running from the top pressure switch to the bottom near the outlet area. This shd be free from any blockage, blow into it to see if it is free. and replace carefully. Electrics off the wall, etc,etc.

Although it might not be the most ecological solution, you might add a small amount of bleach to the container, once a week (let it act for some hours before you use the washing machine again - at night for example). I'm pretty sure it will help! Good luck!

I'm not a technician, but I own a AEG Lavamat. As far as the owner manual says, this washing machine doesn't allow more than 5 kg.

you may have blockage in pipe from drawer to tub but more likely the soap drawer is clogged. take it right out and clean thoroughly

Maybe that a sock or other piece of clothing get between the clothes tub and the outer tub. Open washer's main access panel and remove the large-diameter rubber hose that connects the pump to the bottom of the outer tub. Then,try to remove the clothing through the port. keep a rag nearby to dry up spillage of water when removing the rubber host. Good luck !!

Yes, the most likely reason is that the pipe has a blockage, the bore isn't large enough, you have an airlock with water in it, or the fall into the waste pipe isn't steep enough. When it senses any back pressure it faults. ..
