In this article, we have collected information about all the most common codes with which AEG washing machines signal certain errors in operation. As a rule, such codes are displayed on the device display. Thanks to a convenient table, owners of such equipment can determine by code why the device is knocking out an error and what the malfunction is.
This article is written by a professional expert without the use of artificial intelligence.
We independently test the products and technologies that we recommend.
