| Code | Brand | What it means | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| E40 | AEG | Means the door is not recognised as closed, preventing the cycle from starting. It is usually caused by an improperly closed door, laundry trapped in the seal, overloading, or a faulty door lock or sensor. | High |

| E42 | Electrolux | Means the dryer does not recognise that the door is closed, preventing the cycle from starting. It is usually caused by a faulty door switch, damaged wiring, or a malfunctioning main control board. | High |
| E40 | Zanussi | Means a door lock fault, signalling that the door is not sealing or locking properly. It is usually caused by an improperly closed door, an overloaded drum, or a faulty door lock mechanism. | High |
| E50 | Zanussi | Means a motor or electronic control board fault preventing the drum from rotating correctly. It is usually caused by a failed motor capacitor, worn motor brushes, wiring issues, or the drive belt. | Medium |
