Beko Wahser Error e17

What is the fault of the E17 Beko error affecting your washing machine?

Hello there! If you're here, it's probably because you're having some issues with your Beko washing machine, and you've encountered the E17 error code. No need to worry; in this article, we'll explain what this error means and how you can easily resolve it.

The E17 error code on Beko washing machines indicates that there is an excess of foam inside the washing machine. This can cause the water level sensor to malfunction and prevent the washing machine from draining properly. This error can be caused by several factors, such as:

• Using too much detergent or detergent that is not suitable for your washing machine.
• Overloading the washing machine with more clothes than it can handle.
• Washing very dirty clothes or clothes with soap or fabric softener residues.
• Having a clogged or bent filter or drain hose.
• Experiencing issues with the water pump or the pressure switch.

How to fix the E17 error on the Beko washing machine?

However, the E17 error code has a quick, easy solution. So don't worry, to fix this issue with your Beko washing machine, you'll need to do the following:

1. Reduce the amount of detergent or use a detergent specifically designed for washing machines: In this case, foam is your worst enemy. The main reason for this error in your Beko washing machine is excess foam, so try using less soap or one that generates less foam.
2. Adjust the laundry load according to your washing machine's capacity: There's no need to overload the washing machine with excessive laundry. Doing so fills up the washing machine with foam and clothes, forcing it to work harder. In this case, you need to assist it and not exceed the recommended laundry load level.
3. Try resetting the washing machine if the problem persists: If you've already ensured that there are no traces of foam in your washing machine and the problem persists, it's possible that the sensors have been affected by excess foam. Reset your washing machine by turning it off completely and unplugging it from the power outlet for a few minutes. Reconnect it and check if the error has disappeared; this resets and calibrates the water level-related sensors in the appliance.
4. Clean the filter and the drain hose: The filter is located at the bottom of the washing machine and is designed to trap lint, coins, or other objects that may obstruct the drain. The hose is the tube that connects the washing machine to the drain and is used to remove water from the entire washing machine. To clean them, you must disconnect the washing machine from the power outlet, drain any remaining water in the drum, open the filter cover, and remove it. Then, clean the filter with water and a soft-bristle brush, along with a bit of vinegar. Now, check that nothing is obstructing the hose. Reattach the filter, connect the hose, and close the cover.
5. Check the condition of the water pump: The water pump is responsible for pumping water to the drain, and the pressure switch measures the water level in the washing machine. Sometimes, the pump can get clogged with lint or debris that has passed through the filter, so you'll need to inspect it and perform some maintenance if this is the case.
6. If the problem persists, review all the previous steps: Repeat all the previous steps, making sure to follow everything exactly as instructed. If you continue to see the E17 error code on your Beko washing machine after following these steps, there may be another issue with the electrical or electronic system of the washing machine, or the water level sensor may be defective.
7. Seek assistance from Beko technical support to resolve the problem: If none of the above works and you've gone through everything, the best course of action is to contact Beko's technical support. Sometimes, we have to leave everything in the hands of the experts, and this may not be an exception to the rule.
