Washer stops with E18; drum contains water and machine will not proceed to spin

Possible Causes

Partially blocked pump filter, Obstructed drain hose or standpipe, Weak drain pump motor, Foreign object lodged in pump impeller

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Follow the same cleaning procedure as for E03:

  • Unplug the washer and open the pump filter cover.
  • Drain residual water using the emergency hose if fitted.
  • Remove and clean the filter thoroughly.
  • Check the impeller for obstructions and ensure it spins freely.
  • Inspect and flush the drain hose.

If E18 recurs despite a clean system, the pump may be weak and require replacement.
