Ewdw6505gso electrolux. error 1. have turned off breaker to try and reset won't clear. can't find any water leak. purchased in august
The water will have leaked into the drip pan underneath, which is installed to protect your floors. Unfortunately, only way to get at it is to pull out dishwasher and remove 3 phillips screws that hold it on. In order to repair leaks, Electrolux came out with a "leak kit", which is part number 154769101. Comes with all parts that they had leak issues with
I also have had problems with mine. I originally bought a floor model and it was only $500 so I thought - lets give it a try. I installed it myself and it is very quiet, but average at cleaning dishes. It also developed the error 1 code - I took it out and flipped it over and took off the pan and tightened the hoses. The problem went away for a while ( 6 months) , then returned. I took it back out and thought I could find the leak. (this was yesterday). It was also leaking a little on the floor toward the end of the cycle. I put it up on some 4 x 6's and took off the pan and ran it on a normal wash. After about 10 min it started dripping into the "pan area" . What I found however was that it was not from the motor, but was coming from the front door seal/pan. I took apart the front door ( remove the screws from the inside (but leave the top philips screws!) and ran it again. What I found was that at the corners of the door, water was running outside the seal, slowly filling up the front little lip, and then leaking out. There is a gray plastic shield below the lip held by 2 screws ( I think for sound insulation) which would then catch the water and channel it back inside the machine that would cause the error 1 code!. What I did at this point was open the door and lift part of the gasket from the bottom ( it was a little loose) and realized that it was allowing water to dribble out past the gasket, catch on the lip, overflow over the lip, and cause the problem. I then pulled out ~ 4 inches of the gasket, and put silicone in the channel, and reapplied the gasket. Also, I lifted the corner rubber gasket ( bottom corner where the hinge meets) away from the wall and then applied silicone. I waited overnight and reran the dishwasher this morning watching for the leak and- NO LEAKS! I also put a large swath of silicone on the gray plastic below the lip so water can't go into the pan and set off the alarm, and I also put a door vinyl weather stripping glued to the lip to add a little height in case it starts to leak again. Well - all is well now ? for how long? But I could at least see the problem (their design problem) It took me a few hours, but so far so good. If any major thing happens to this dishwasher again however, I will trash it and get a bosch or kitchenaid/kenmore elite. hope this helps

Thank you for your inquiry, Carol!
From what you have described your Electrolux range is displaying an error code of E15. I see you have reset your breaker and continue to receive the error code. The error code E15 means that your ESEC (Electronic Surface Element Control) test failed this could be a problem with your relay board or UIB (User Interface Board). When you reset your breaker did you leave it off for at least ten minutes? That is the best way to reset your range. You may need to seek assistance from a professional technician for proper diagnosis and repair. This will help you to avoid any unnecessary part purchases. Hopefully this information is helpful. -Matt
Hello Nancy Keller - Typically, error code F11 indicates a shorted keypad. Try resetting the wall oven by unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker off. This usually clears most false error codes. Wait approximately ten minutes and if the error code does not clear, I would recommend contacting a professional to proceed further. Most likely the EOC on the range will need replacing.
Hello - Could it possibly be error code F13 or F36? According to my research this manufacturer does not have an error code F136. Try resetting the unit by unplugging it or flipping the household circuit breaker off. Wait approximately ten minutes and see if the error code clears. If it proves to be ineffective, contact a professional to move forward accurately to properly diagnose the unit.
Hi - Typically error code E08 on Electrolux models indicates that it is recommended for a professional to check the mist value on the motor. Try resetting the unit by unplugging it or flipping the breaker to the household circuit breaker. Wait approximately ten minutes and turn on the dryer. If the error code does not clear and it is ineffective, contact a professional to move forward accurately.
You may try and reset the induction cook top by disconnecting the power to the unit for up to 30 seconds. This will clear most false error codes. You can disconnect power by flipping the circuit breaker off and back on. If the error code does not clear, then the unit more than likely can be experiencing an issue with the EOC and user interface board. This is not a typical do it yourself job; please consult a professional or your manufacturer.

We have hard water in our area so mineral deposits clog the filter and internal parts after a year causing the ERROR 01 message. You do NOT have to remove the bottom water basin. Instead get a 4 foot length of 1/4 inch tubing (fuel line at a hobby shop or air line at a pet store) and remove the inside Glass Trap Filter to insert the tubing into the bottom basin and siphon the water out. Unplug the dishwasher and leave the door open overnight. In the morning when you plug it in you will get the WELCOME display. Then you must run a commerical cleaning solution (we use Finish) to remove the mineral buildup. We have to do the same thing with our Kerug coffee maker. Set an annual alarm on your smart phone to remind you to do this once a year.
