Aeg Lavamat 63742Vi Error
Good evening Guys
The washing machine suddenly stopped in its cycle today. it left the water in the drum and the door was unlocked when I went to it.
First thing I thought was a blockage... but there doesn't seem to be anything... I know it hadn't finished its cycle due to there being the fabic softener in the draw.
Ive had the filter out and checked the impeller is turning in the back... there was nothing in the filter and the impeller was turning.
It selects a program and displays a time for the program. Shut the door and press wash and it flashes up Err three times and that's your lot... it will not do anything.
Any Ideas???
Many Thanks
Jack
Solution Summary
AI-generated from this discussion
This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.
AEG Lavamat 63742Vi shows 'Err' and will not start after stopping mid-cycle
- The problem
- AEG Lavamat 63742Vi stopped part way through a wash, leaving water in the drum, fabric softener still in the drawer and clothes not spun. Afterward it would select programmes and show the expected time, but pressing start only made 'Err' flash repeatedly and the machine would not run.
- Likely cause
- The strongest diagnosis in the discussion is a probable door interlock fault, because the control panel remained active but the machine would not proceed into a wash. An undefined 'Err' display was noted, and no exact fault code meaning was confirmed.
- What fixed it
- No confirmed repair was posted. The accepted reply advised that the symptoms most likely pointed to the door interlock, but stated the information was too vague to be certain. Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.
- Checks to try
- Filter removed and checked
- Drain pump impeller checked and found turning
- Observed that programmes could still be selected and time displayed
- Observed repeated 'Err' indication when start was pressed
Safety: Do not bypass the door interlock or other safety devices. Further diagnosis should be carried out by a suitably qualified appliance engineer.

Is this an old washing machine? All AEG errors I have information on have a number, such as E11, Err seems to just indicate an undefined error which could be anything. If it flashes three times followed by a pause and a repeat of the three flashes it could be indicating an error through the amount of times it flashes but I don't have any information on those kind of errors.
It sounds like it aborted the wash before it had reached the last rinse. Normally when they abort due to an error they still drain the machine properly although obviously if it didn't do a spin then the laundry would retain a lot of water.
If it won't do anything the first suspect is the door interlock as until the door is closed, and the machine gets the signal that it's closed properly nothing should work apart from the control panel display. It's too vague unfortunately to be sure.

Hi,
This is what's got me. The manual states the error codes and nothing about the code ERR that flashes twice what ever you do!!! It did stop half way through... No softener was taken the water wasn't empted and the cloths had never been spun.
Its just come out of warrentty so just over 2 year old.
Many Thanks
