Possible Causes

Foreign object lodged in pump, Collapsed drain hose, Blocked tub-to-pump bellows, Impeller detached from pump shaft

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance and prepare for water spillage.

  • 1. Remove pump filter: As in E03, open the service flap, drain water, and remove the filter.
  • 2. Check pump cavity: Reach into the pump housing and feel for objects such as socks, coins, or hairpins blocking the impeller.
  • 3. Inspect impeller: Try to rotate the impeller. If it spins freely on the shaft without resistance, it may have detached and the pump must be replaced.
  • 4. Check tub-to-pump hose: Access the large black bellows hose between the tub and pump. Remove and inspect for blockages like small garments or buildup.
  • 5. Replace components as needed: Reassemble and test. If E25 remains, replace the pump and recheck all hoses.
