Fill Timeout - Water Not Entering Drum
Quick Answer
Error code E11 on your Electrolux Washing Machines means: Fill Timeout - Water Not Entering Drum. This is usually fixable — see the step-by-step guide below.
Affected Models
Likely Causes
  1. Water supply faucets behind the washer are turned off or only partially open
  2. Inlet hose screens are clogged with mineral deposits or sediment
  3. Water inlet valve solenoid has failed electrically and will not open
  4. Household water pressure is below the minimum 20 PSI required by the machine
How to Fix It
1
Verify both hot and cold water supply faucets behind the washer are fully open
2
Turn off the water supply, disconnect the inlet hoses from the back of the washer, and clean the small mesh filter screens at the valve inlets
3
Check household water pressure by attaching a pressure gauge to a nearby faucet; the washer requires at least 20 PSI
4
Using a multimeter, test each water inlet valve solenoid coil for continuity (expected resistance 500-1500 ohms)
5
Replace the water inlet valve assembly if either solenoid fails the continuity test
