What Does Error E62 Mean?

The Electrolux washing machine E62 error indicates an overheating water temperature issue detected during the wash cycle. This error typically prevents the machine from completing the wash, halting the cycle and potentially leaving the door locked. Common causes include a faulty temperature sensor or an issue with the water inlet connections, leading to unsafe temperature levels.

Common Symptoms:

  • Error E62 displayed on the washer’s control panel during a wash cycle
  • Wash cycle halts before completion
  • Machine may not proceed to drain or spin when E62 is present

Possible Causes

  • Overheating water temperature detected by machine diagnostics (medium)

How to Fix Error E62

DIY Fix Check inlet water connections

  1. Turn off and unplug the washing machine.
  2. Verify that the cold water inlet hose is attached to the cold water faucet and not the hot water faucet.
  3. Ensure hoses are fully seated and fittings are secure.

Technician Only Test and replace temperature sensor if faulty

  1. Put the washer into service mode following model‑specific procedures.
  2. Measure the temperature sensor resistance with a multimeter when cold and hot to verify proper change according to specifications.
  3. Replace the temperature sensor with an authorized Electrolux part if readings are out of expected range.
