E50 is a motor error code.check the motor brushes are ok and check the insulation on the motor as this will give you an e50 error code.could also be a faulty wiring loom to the motor or a faulty main control pcb

E50 says the motor is overheated, they recomen you let it sit for 30min to clear.
It can be the motor power supply triac has got a short circuit or there could be no signal from the motor tachometric generator, which will uaually mean a pcb fault, or wiring to motor or even the motor. hope this helps

Oko 72630. Why is it stuck on rinse cycle?

Could be several reasons:
- Selected the "Night cycle" program (means standing with the drum full of water, reason: too much noise in the spin cycle)
- Set to the "Rinse hold" (means standing with the drum full of water, reason: wrinkles on the clothes)

According to your description I think that this is not a failure otherwise error E20 will be appears on display.

Once the washing programme has come to an end, END illuminates on the programme progress display.
If RINSE HOLD was selected, the display beside the START/ PAUSE button flashes.
1. After a rinse hold, the water must first be pumped out:
- Either press the START/PAUSE button (the water is pumped out and the washing is spun according to the completed programme;
After the START/PAUSE button is pressed again, the spin speed can still also be changed during spinning), or
- Turn the programme selector to PUMP OUT and press the START/PAUSE button (the water is pumped out without spinning),or
- Turn the programme selector to SPIN or SHORT SPIN and press theSTART/PAUSE button (the water is pumped out and the washing is spun or gently spun).
At the end of this programme step, the END indicator will illuminate.
2. Open the door.
As soon as the DOOR indicator lights up green, the door can be opened.

AEG Lavamat 60810 keeps stopping and displaying error E50 and some time E70. What is the problem and how do I fix it?

Family error code E50 means a problem with the washing motor. Family error code E70 means a problem with the NTC sensor. In my experience, E50 is most common fault in worn carbon brushes. But in any case family error code E50 is shown to the customer. In service mode could be: E51,52,53 and 54. The same applies to family E70 error code that will be displayed in service mode as error code E71 or E74.
E50 error code could be: motor winding, power board, tachymetric generator, motor relay on power board, wiring between motor and power board and wiring between tachymetric generator and electronic.
E70 error code could be: faulty NTC sensor, wrong position of NTC sensor or to much limescale on it and finaly wiring between NTC and electronic.

Hold the start/pause and skip/reset together then press the on/off button keeping the other 2 buttons held until you get chasing lights,now release the first 2 buttons.Now press the fabrics button until the light goes down t60 degrees or the pump cuts in.Then take it on I think step by step until an error code displays make a note, to cancel hold the 2 buttons start/pause and skip/reset and the error code should go but if it reappears then the fault is still there.

We have code e50 on the front off it how do you get it off

Hello,
E50 is relating to the main motor,it could be the brushes,tacho or something more serious.That error code will not clear until you can find the problem causing it,try checking the brushes first.If you want to try to clear it first follow these instructions and you may get the exact error code displayed if so then get in touch again with the new error code.
Hold the start/pause and skip/reset together then press the on/off button keeping the other 2 buttons held until you get chasing lights,now release the first 2 buttons.Now press the fabrics button until the light goes down t60 degrees or the pump cuts in.Then take it on I think step by step until an error code displays make a note, to cancel hold the 2 buttons start/pause and skip/reset and the error code should go but if it reappears then the fault is still there.Good luck
