AEG Dishwasher Error Codes
AEG washing machines group codes into families (E10, E20, E40 and so on), and models without a display signal the same fault with beeps or flashes. AEG asks you to note the full code before switching off, because a reset clears it. AEG dishwashers use i-codes such as i20.
Codes can vary by model
Check the model number on your dishwasher’s rating label and your manual. We only list codes we’ve checked against AEG guidance. For anything else, use AEG UK support.
| Code | What it means | Severity |
|---|---|---|
| i10 also i11, AL5, C1 | Little or no water is reaching the dishwasher (a water inlet problem). | Usually simple |
| i20 also C2, F2, AL6 | The dishwasher has a problem draining the water. | Check carefully |
| i30 | Water has collected in the base of the dishwasher and the anti-flood protection is active. | Likely needs an engineer |
