My washing machine AEG lavamat 86800 (1998) blinks C9 and says no centrifuging and pre-wash. Thank you J.

Lavamat?! Where in the *&%^ is this machine from? Yugoslavia! I'm guessing it will not allow water IN Because only the Spin (Centrifuge) cycle works?! So if that is so you need your water inlet valves replaced, there are Two. Even in machines named after a Bar of Soap!

Hi from retired Englishman in SW France,

AEG Lavamat 'C9' decodes as 'tacho fault' i.e. something wrong with the motor/speed/sensing. Sorry but that looks like an engineer call is required;-0(

If this has clarified the situation and/or assisted you please consider a 4 thumbs up for the rating.
Thanks and good luck!

On washing machine displaying error code "C9" on its' display. Normally this indicates that there is a mechanical or electrical problem with the motor (often the brushes need to be replaced).
It could also be an over-sized load of clothes in the machine, try to reset the before beginning to replace parts.
The solution is to put the dial in the off position, then turn the dial to the spin position while holding down the soak and pre-wash buttons simultaneously.
The procedure above is also necessary to reset the washing machine after replacing any parts once the error condition has occurred.

c9 means the electronics is not detecting any drum movement. check the carbon brushes in the motor this is usual culprit.

c9 means there is no motor movement, typically worn out motor carbon brushes.

Hi,

C9 Indicates Motor Fault. It seems that the Carbon Brushes have Worn out.

Replace it and more likely it would Fix the Problem.Once you replace that, you need to put the machine into Service Mode to Reset the Error.

Steps for Reset the Error Code

1. Press and Hold the Prewash and Soaking Buttons Together.
2. Whilst Holding them, Turn the Dial from Off one Click Anti Clockwise

Note - If problem persists, Check the motor plug for broken wires and check the state of the carbon brushes.

Let me know, if needed further assistance.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!

Hello. I got error code C9 on a LAVAMAT 86800. It pumped in water, and it pumps out water. You can select pump in or out....But the motor dont turn. It will not sentrifuge. So I bought new carbon brush'es on the net. One of them were totally wore down. Now it works. They lasted for 10 years.

go on line and contact AEG head office by email they will email you back with instructions in english.adrian

c9 means the motor is not turning the drum. check carbon brushes in the motor.
