Possible Causes of error EF2:

• Overuse of detergent: 
  • Using too much detergent, especially high-efficiency detergents, can create excessive foam.
• Incorrect detergent type: 
  • Using the wrong type of detergent, like laundry soap instead of laundry detergent, can also lead to excessive foam.
• Dirty or clogged components: 
  • A clogged detergent dispenser, drain hose, or filter can trap detergent residue and create more foam.
• Faulty pressure sensor: 
  • In rare cases, a malfunctioning pressure sensor might misinterpret the foam level and trigger the EF2 error.

Troubleshooting the EF2 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:

   • Ensure you're using the correct amount and type of detergent for your machine and the size of the load.
4. Clean the detergent dispenser: 
   • Regularly clean the detergent dispenser to remove any buildup that can trap residue and contribute to foam.
5. Inspect the drain hose and filter: 
   • Check for any blockages or debris in the drain hose and filter, which can trap detergent and create more foam. Clean them according to your user manual instructions.
