Edesa F24 on a washing machine: water reaches overflow level

Risk level
Medium
Proceed carefully and stop if the check is unclear.
Urgency
Medium
Quick answer
On Edesa washers such as the EWF-9400 WH, F24 means the water has reached the overflow level. Stop the programme with Start/Pause and restart it. If the appliance keeps pumping water, close the water tap and call a technician.
Safety first
Stop and check this first
- With water on the floor, unplug before drying and never touch the plug with wet hands. Do not open the machine: the inside is a job for the authorised technician.
- This code table is from the Edesa EWF-9400 WH manual; on other Edesa models the same code may mean something else, so check your model's manual.
Safe checks you can perform
- Stop the programme with Start/Pause
- Restart the programme and watch it fill
- Close the tap and unplug if it repeats

What a technician must be able to justify
Technician visit
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.
Water level control diagnosis
What they doThe Edesa authorised technician checks why the water goes above the normal level and why the overflow protection is triggered.
They must show youthe cause found and the part involved, if any.
In writingthe diagnosis, the part replaced with its reference and the reason.
Test programme without F24
What they doAfter the repair, the technician runs a full programme and checks that filling stops at its level and the cycle finishes without F24.
They must show youthe programme finished without F24 and a dry floor.
In writingthe programme used, the result and the date of the test.
Before accepting a part or repair
Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.
Follow these steps
Note: Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.
Stop the programme with Start/Pause
- Who:
- you, without opening the machine.
- How:
- press the Start/Pause button to stop the programme, as the Edesa table says. Do not try to force the door: Edesa explains that when paused the door only unlocks if there is no water in the drum or the water is not hot.
- Result that matters:
- stopping the cycle while the protection pumps the water out.
- If the machine stops pumping and stays paused:
- restart the programme.
- If it keeps pumping water:
- close the water tap and call a technician.
- Evidence to keep:
- time F24 appeared, the programme running and whether there was water on the floor.
Evidence: Edesa EWF-9400 WH manual de instrucciones (ES/EN/FR/PT)
Restart the programme and watch it fill
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- restart the programme as Edesa says; if it does not start, turn the knob to off, wait a few seconds, switch on again and repeat the programme. Stay nearby while it fills and see whether the water level in the drum looks normal.
- Result that matters:
- knowing whether F24 was a one-off or comes back on the next fill.
- If it fills normally and finishes without F24:
- keep an eye on the next washes.
- If F24 returns or the appliance keeps pumping water:
- close the tap and call the service.
- Evidence to keep:
- photo of the code if it returns and the point in the cycle it appeared.

Close the tap and unplug if it repeats
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- if the error persists, close the water supply tap and unplug the power cable, just as the manual says to do after every wash. If there is water on the floor, dry it only with the washer unplugged.
- Result that matters:
- the washer left with no water supply and no power until the technician checks it.
- If there was water outside the machine:
- note it and do not use it again until it is checked.
- If there is no water outside:
- still call the authorised service if F24 repeats.
- Evidence to keep:
- photos of the floor and the tap area.

What it means
In the official manual for the Edesa EWF-9400 WH, F24 means the water reaches the overflow level. The manual explains the protection: if the level goes above normal, the water supply is shut off, the machine starts pumping the water out, the programme is interrupted and the error is reported. Edesa says to stop the programme with Start/Pause and restart it; if the appliance continues to pump water, close the water tap and call a service technician. The code alone never proves which part is faulty.
