What does the Beko E06 error code mean?

The E06 error indicates a motor fault. This usually means the drum is not spinning or is spinning sporadically. The most common cause on older Beko models is worn motor carbon brushes.

How to fix the Beko E06 error code

  1. Unplug the machine and check if the drum can be turned freely by hand.
  2. Remove the back panel of the machine to access the motor.
  3. Remove the carbon brushes from either side of the motor. If they are worn down to less than 5mm in length, they must be replaced.
  4. Check the wiring harness connected to the motor for any loose or burnt wires.
  5. If the brushes and wiring are fine, the motor itself or the control board may be faulty.
