What the appliance detected
Detected condition
The washer detected or reported an overfill condition.
What may contribute
Possible causes
- A recent installation or move may have left an installation problem.
- The washer may be reporting an abnormal water-level or overfill condition.
- If water continues entering or E35 returns, internal water-level, inlet, wiring, or control diagnosis may be needed.
Start conservatively
Safe preliminary checks
Work in order and stop whenever a step is not supported by the documentation for your model.
Treat active overfill as a stop-use condition
- If water is actively overflowing or approaching electrical areas, stop the cycle and close the household water supplies if they are safely reachable.
- Disconnect power only if you can do so without stepping into water or touching wet electrical equipment.
Record E35 and installation context
- Photograph E35 and note whether the washer was recently installed or moved.
- If it is a recent installation, have the installer verify the setup as Electrolux recommends.
Use only one documented reset after the condition is safe
- Electrolux documents pressing Cancel to clear E35 and a hard reset by disconnecting and reconnecting AC power.
- Do not repeat resets if the washer begins overfilling again or the code returns.
Actions not recommended
- Do not keep operating a washer that is actively overfilling.
- Do not remove panels or test pressure sensors, inlet valves, wiring, or live voltage.
- Do not replace a pressure sensor or control board based on E35 alone.
When to stop and request service
- E35 returns after a safe documented reset and the installation is confirmed.
- Water keeps entering, the washer overflows, or any leak reaches electrical areas.
- Internal water-level, inlet-valve, wiring, or control diagnosis is required.
