E10
AEG washer E10: insufficient water inlet
Risk level
Medium
Proceed carefully and stop if the check is unclear.
Urgency
High
Quick answer
E10 means the washer is not receiving enough water. Preserve the full display and model, then use tap flow, visible hose condition and whether water enters before the code to choose the next branch before any part or paid repair.
Safety first
Stop and check this first
- Stop immediately for water near electricity, smoke, burning smell, abnormal heat, damaged cable or repeated breaker trips. Close the water tap when a leak is possible; sealed water, heat and mains circuits are professional-only.
Safe checks you can perform
- Capture the decision evidence
- Run the one discriminating check
- Stop at the result boundary

What a technician must be able to justify

These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.
These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.
Evidence-led AEG handoff for E10
What they doA qualified technician should test household supply, inlet hose/filter, valve, pressure sensing, drain siphoning or control, using the exact model/PNC and the recorded result for tap flow, visible hose condition and whether water enters before the code.
Before accepting a part or repair
Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.
Checks and evidence, step by step
Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.

Capture the decision evidence
No special tools
Procedure
Photograph E10, the complete message and model/PNC. Record the failed programme stage and tap flow, visible hose condition and whether water enters before the code. Do not clear the history repeatedly.
Stop immediately for water near electricity, smoke, burning smell, abnormal heat, damaged cable or repeated breaker trips. Close the water tap when a leak is possible; sealed water, heat and mains circuits are professional-only.

Run the one discriminating check
No special tools
Procedure
Confirm roughly 10 litres per minute at the tap, open it fully and inspect the visible hose and manual-accessible filter. Keep the machine empty for the single controlled retry.
Stop immediately for water near electricity, smoke, burning smell, abnormal heat, damaged cable or repeated breaker trips. Close the water tap when a leak is possible; sealed water, heat and mains circuits are professional-only.

Stop at the result boundary
No special tools
Procedure
Low household flow belongs to plumbing. Good flow with no entry selects the inlet valve/flow-control branch; unexpected draining while filling selects drain installation before parts. If the same result returns after this one controlled pass, stop rather than chaining resets or cycles.
Stop immediately for water near electricity, smoke, burning smell, abnormal heat, damaged cable or repeated breaker trips. Close the water tap when a leak is possible; sealed water, heat and mains circuits are professional-only.
