What the F family is
The spine for the F family records 6 model codes built on a common stem — a short run rather than a long one, which is why a single ordering covers all of them. Will Not Drain and will not start or no power dominate here; each is covered on its own page.
Problems on these models, and where each is covered
- Will Not Drain — Standing water at the end of a cycle is a path problem far more often than a pump problem. See its page. — Link: aeg-electrolux-aeg-electrolux-dishwasher-f-dishwasher-drainage-failure-2
- Will Not Start or No Power — A dishwasher that will not start is usually being refused permission rather than being broken. See its page. — Link: aeg-electrolux-aeg-electrolux-dishwasher-f-dishwasher-wont-start-2
- Water Leak — A dishwasher leak is usually water being thrown somewhere it should not go, not water escaping under pressure. See its page. — Link: aeg-electrolux-aeg-electrolux-dishwasher-f-dishwasher-water-leak-2
- Does Not Clean or Dry — A dishwasher that has stopped cleaning is usually short of one of three things: water, heat or a clear spray path. See its page. — Link: aeg-electrolux-aeg-electrolux-dishwasher-f-dishwasher-cleaning-performance-2
The problem classes in order on this family
- Will Not Drain — First on this family.
- Will Not Start or No Power — Second.
- Water Leak — Third.
- Does Not Clean or Dry — Fourth.
- Body: No denominator backs this ordering: the F fact bundle carries no component shares. The AEG-Electrolux badge covers machines built to the European pattern and fitted into joinery, so the ranking below leads with the things the installation and the consumables do to a cycle, and keeps the control electronics last because they are the least likely and the most expensive to guess at.

Before you open anything
Safety
Unplug the machine or switch off its breaker before removing any panel, and turn the water off at the valve before disturbing a hose: this is a box that combines mains voltage with standing water. Never wedge the door catch open to watch a cycle run.
Which of these are owner-fixable on these models
The first checks of every problem above are owner work on the F models. The line is the panel: anything needing a meter on live terminals is a service call.
