Washer shows E17 and does not fill; often associated with water inlet safety

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

Triggered aqua-stop hose (if fitted), Faulty inlet valve safety coil, Blocked inlet filter, PCB inlet driver fault

Safety: Turn off water supply and unplug the washer.

Check aqua-stop hose: If your Fagor uses an aqua-stop inlet hose, inspect the external safety box for signs of activation (bulging, water inside). Replace the hose if triggered.
Clean filters and check taps: As per E02, clean inlet filters and ensure taps are open.
Test inlet valve: Measure coil resistance; replace the valve if open-circuit.

If mechanical parts are fine, the PCB may not be energizing the valve correctly.
