What the EF0 Error Means
The EF0 error code generally indicates that the washing machine has detected an abnormal condition such as excess foam, a water leak or an imbalanced load. This may prevent the washing machine from completing a wash cycle correctly.
Common Reasons This Error Appears
Too much detergent
Using too much detergent or the wrong type of detergent can cause excess foaming inside the machine.
Wrong detergent type
Using non-HE detergent in a high efficiency machine can cause excessive foam build up.
Water leak
The machine may have detected water in an area where it should not be, such as the base of the appliance.
Imbalanced load
A heavy or unevenly distributed load may be causing the drum to become imbalanced during a cycle.
Safe Checks You Can Try
Check the detergent
Make sure you are using the correct type and amount of detergent for your machine. Reduce the amount if necessary.
Redistribute the load
Open the door and redistribute the laundry evenly around the drum before restarting.
Check for leaks
Inspect the area around and underneath the machine for any signs of water leakage.
