The most common failures of Zanussi washing machines
Zanussi error Eb0 and Ebo
If they washing machine displays the error code Eb0 or Ebo, then the appliance isn't getting enough power. This might be because the voltage of the power supply is too low. Check this by connecting the washing machine somewhere else. Check if the plug is in an earthed socket as well. Does the error message remain? Reset the appliance by leaving the plug out of the socket for at least 30 seconds.
Zanussi error E40
An E40 error on a Zanussi washing machine points to a malfunctioning door. First, check if the door is properly closed. Make sure there is no laundry trapped between then washing machine and the door. If the washing machine is completely full, the problem might be that the drum is overloaded. Remove some clothes to be sure. Finally, check the child safety lock. The included manual explains how you turn this off.
Zanussi error EFO, EFo, and EF3
Does the screen say EFO, EFo, or EF3? Then there is internal leakage and water under the drum. This is often caused by a piece of clothing or shoelace between the door on the cuff. Turn off the washing machine first and remove the plug from the socket. Detach the water hose and tilt the machine backwards slightly, so some of the water runs out. After this, you can reconnect everything and remove the stuck clothing items.
Zanussi error E10 and C1
Does the display of your Zanussi washing machine show the error code E10 or C1? Then there is a problem with the water supply. That means your washing machine is not getting any water or not getting enough water. First, check if the washing machine is properly connected to the water supply. It's possible that the drain hose is blocked or there is a kink in it. If that is the case, you remove the kink. Sometimes it helps to turn the machine off and on again.
Zanussi error E20 and C2
If the error code E20 or C2 appears, then the machine has a problem pumping the water. First, check if the drain hose isn't inserted too deep into the drain. The hose should be inserted no further than 10 centimeters into the drain. If that isn't the case, check to see if the draining pump or the drain is blocked. These are both easy to clean.
Error without a code
