E53

The E53 error code on Electrolux washing machines typically indicates a problem with the drum speed control. However, the exact meaning and troubleshooting steps can vary significantly depending on your specific model.

Possible Causes for error E53:

  • Faulty Drum Speed Control Board: 
    • This board regulates the motor's speed to achieve different spin speeds during the wash cycle. It could be malfunctioning and sending incorrect signals to the motor.
  • Low Voltage to Speed Control Board: 
    • If the voltage reaching the board is insufficient, it might not function properly and cause the E53 error.
  • Wiring or Connection Issue: 
    • Damaged or loose wiring between the control board, motor, and speed sensor can disrupt communication, leading to the error.
  • Faulty Speed Sensor: 
    • This sensor detects the drum's rotation speed and sends readings to the control board. A malfunctioning sensor could send inaccurate readings, causing the E53 error.
  • Control Board Issue: 
    • In rare cases, the main control board might be misinterpreting sensor readings, causing the E53 error.

Troubleshooting the E53 error code in Electrolux Washing Machine

Safety First! Unplug the machine

  1. Identify Your Model: 
    • Locate the model number on a label on the back of your machine or in your user manual.
  2. Consult the User Manual: 
    • Refer to your user manual for specific instructions related to the E53 error code for your model. It will offer detailed troubleshooting based on your machine's design and provide the most accurate information.
  3. Restart the Machine: 
    • Sometimes, a simple restart can clear the error. Wait a few minutes after unplugging before restarting.
  4. Check for Blockages: 
    • Ensure there are no blockages in the drain hose or pump that might be putting extra strain on the motor and affecting its speed.
  5. Visually Inspect Wiring: 
    • If you're comfortable doing so, visually inspect the wiring around the speed control board, motor, and sensor for any damage or loose connections.
