AEG L87695WD Displays "1" then "0"

It sounds like the programme is aborting almost immediately rather than completing any proper self-check. On AEG/Electrolux washer dryers, a plain “1” then “0” is not a fault description I’d want to guess at, so the best approach is to narrow down whether it is failing on filling, draining, door locking, or sensing.

Before inspecting anything internal, isolate the appliance from the mains.

1. Check whether it starts to fill with water Start a wash and listen carefully. If no water enters at all, check the water tap is fully on, the inlet hose isn’t kinked, and the inlet filter at the hose connection isn’t blocked.

2. Check the drain system If it runs the drain pump briefly then stops, remove and clean the pump filter. Also check the drain hose for blockage or being pushed too far down the standpipe. A blocked drain can cause an early abort.

3. Watch the door lock behaviour If the door locks, then unlocks a few seconds later, the control may not be seeing a correct lock signal. A faulty door interlock is a common enough cause.

4. Try a spin/drain-only programme If that also stops within seconds, it points more towards drain, door lock, or control/sensor issues rather than heating.

5. Check for stored fault codes This model may have a service/diagnostic mode, which can reveal the last logged fault even if the normal display isn’t showing it. If you can access that, note the exact code.

6. Inspect wiring/connectors if competent Particularly around the door lock, pressure system, and pump. Loose or burnt connections can cause this sort of immediate stop.

If all simple checks pass, I’d strongly suspect the door interlock, pressure sensing circuit, or main control issue. For live electrical testing, module faults, or anything internal you’re unsure about, it’s best to use a qualified appliance engineer.
