Motor Overcurrent - Phase Current Too High
Quick Answer
Error code E58 on your Electrolux Washing Machines means: Motor Overcurrent - Phase Current Too High. This is usually fixable — see the step-by-step guide below.
Affected Models
Likely Causes
  1. One phase of the motor winding is shorted causing asymmetric current draw
  2. Motor connector has a loose pin causing arcing and high current on remaining phases
  3. Inverter board is sending unbalanced power to the motor phases
  4. Drum is significantly overloaded beyond rated capacity
How to Fix It
1
Reduce the load size if the drum was overloaded and try running the cycle again
2
Disconnect power and check the motor connector for loose, burned, or corroded pins
3
Test motor winding resistance between all phase pairs; readings should be balanced within 0.5 ohms of each other
4
If one phase reads significantly lower than the others, the motor has a partial short and must be replaced
5
If motor windings are balanced, replace the inverter board
Pro Tip
This fix requires some technical knowledge. If you're unsure about any step, consider contacting support or a qualified technician.
