What the F27 Error Means
The F27 error code indicates that the pressure sensor is faulty or not providing reliable readings to the control board. Without accurate water level information, the machine cannot safely manage the wash cycle and will stop.
Common Reasons This Error Appears
Faulty pressure sensor
The sensor component itself may have failed and needs to be replaced.
Blocked pressure sensor tube
A small rubber tube connects the pressure sensor to the drum. This tube can become blocked with limescale or detergent residue over time, preventing accurate pressure readings.
Disconnected or split pressure tube
If the pressure tube has come loose from either end or developed a small split, the sensor will not function correctly.
Wiring fault
A loose or damaged electrical connection to the pressure sensor can trigger this error code.
Safe Checks You Can Try
Restart the washing machine
Turn the machine off at the mains for a few minutes before restarting to clear any temporary fault.
Run a descale or cleaning cycle
A hot wash with a machine cleaner can help remove limescale that may be restricting the pressure tube.
