Overflow — water level too high

Flood risk. Shut the taps immediately and isolate power at the breaker if water has reached the outlet or plug.
Unplug the washer and shut both supply taps immediately
Check whether water keeps entering with power off — that confirms a mechanically stuck inlet valve
Inspect the pressure sensor air hose for water, splits, or kinks
Blow gently through the pressure hose to confirm the sensor clicks
Replace the pressure sensor if the valve holds and the hose is clear
Pro Diagnostic Tip
E4 is a flood-safety code. If the drum keeps filling with the plug pulled, the inlet valve is stuck — shut the taps before doing anything else.
