Dishwasher shows E6; may not detect water level correctly.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Faulty flow meter (if fitted), Blocked pressure chamber, Damaged sensor wiring, Defective control board input

Safety first: Turn off power before accessing side panels or base.

Locate sensor: Identify whether your Electrolux model uses a flow meter or pressure sensor for level detection.
Clean and inspect: Remove any side-mounted pressure chamber and rinse it. Check the flow meter for debris or limescale.
Check wiring: Inspect the harness from the sensor to the control board for damage.
Replace faulty sensor: If cleaning and wiring checks do not resolve E6, replace the flow meter or pressure sensor.
