What does the Zanussi E10 error code mean?

The E10 error indicates that your washing machine is not receiving water. This is typically caused by a supply issue, blocked inlet filter, or a kinked hose rather than an internal fault.

How to fix the Zanussi E10 error code

  1. Check the water supply tap is fully open
  2. Ensure there is no water outage in your home
  3. Inspect the inlet hose for kinks or bends
  4. Unscrew the hose and clean the mesh filter
  5. Check water pressure is adequate

💡 Pro tip: In hard water areas, limescale buildup in the filter is a common cause.
