How to fix Electrolux E11
Open the water supply fully
Turn both hot and cold valves all the way on, and hold off on showers or other taps while the washer fills.
Check the inlet hoses
Straighten any kinked or pinched fill hoses behind the washer.
Clean the inlet screens
Turn off the water and unplug the washer. With a bucket ready, take the hoses off and rinse the screens at the washer's inlet, then reconnect snugly and turn the water back on.
Check the drain hose
A drain hose pushed too far into the standpipe, or sealed into it, can siphon water out during the fill. It shouldn't be kinked and should sit loosely in the drain.
When to call a technician
Water supply and hoses fine and E11 still returning: the inlet valve or water level sensor probably needs testing by a technician.
