Possible Causes

Inlet water too cold, Faulty inlet water temperature sensor, Misreading cabinet thermistor, Control board logic fault

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety First: Disconnect power before accessing sensors or control boards.

  • Check installation: Ensure the water supply is not from a line that can freeze or drop below Electrolux's minimum inlet temperature.
  • Inspect inlet sensor: If equipped, locate the inlet water temperature sensor near the fill tube or valve. Check wiring and mounting.
  • Test sensor: Measure resistance at known temperatures and compare to specifications. Replace if out of range.
  • Verify cabinet thermistor: If the unit is installed in a very cold environment (e.g., unheated garage), move it to a location within the specified ambient range.
  • Reset and monitor: After correcting conditions and/or replacing sensors, clear the error and monitor several cycles.
