Very helpfull, Told me C3 means leakage of water town to the base basket where a security floating frigolite switch is situated. With a towel I cleaned the accumulated water away and could then strat the washing. It is no in working order no signs of leakage which would lift the security witch in the bottom.
Great service

Hi there,
This means your water sensor has detected a leak. it will stop when the sensor is dry.
Try getting the water out of the trap door and letting the machine dry.

I would also unplug it for secirity reasons.

Basically your water pump is getting tired or the sensor is dirty. Try cleaning the sensor or else you may have to change the pump.

Good Luck!
