I HAVE A 74950 WASHING MACHINE AND WHEN A PROGRAM FINISHES IT APPEARS ON THE SCREEN THE CODE E20 AND THE CLOTHES ARE REALLY WET. IT DOESN'T FINISHES PROPERLY. I HAVE TO PUT AGAIN 19 MINUTES OF "CENTRIFUGAR" IN ORDER TO HAVE ALL THE WATER OUT
Washing Machines - AEG - Lavamat 74640 Front Load Washer

Hi from Englishman in SW France @13:43 Sat!
Either the machine is not spinning fast enough in the spin cycle (can you tell?) OR some of the water possibly remaining in the washer because the drain motor is unable to drain efficiently.
I would start by checking the state of the drain motor lint tray/filter to see if that is blocked.
It will be (normally) behind the front bottom cover which is likely to be held in place by some plastic screws which turn 45 degrees anticlockwise to undo.
Now- before removing the actual filter cover
POWER OFF AND HAVE A WATER RECEPTACLE HAND TO PUT UNDER IT (IF POSSIBLE) OR LOADS OF RAGS!
Undo the cover and pull out the tray and clean it of whatever might be there.
If your water supply is 'hard' and has a lot of calcium in it it will be well worthwhile regularly cleaning with a sachet of propriatory anticalc powder/liquid- we have hard water and I clean every 3 to 4 months.
If you find it impossible to remove the tray/filter email me [email protected] and I will give you more advice on how to (possibly) remove it without (possibly) breaking it!
Cheers,
John C
