Affected model seriesEIDW6105, EIDW5905
Quick answer
Electrolux dishwasher code Er10 indicates mains power relay problem detected.
Model compatibility: Electrolux reuses codes across series and control generations, so Er10 may mean something different on another appliance or platform. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means
When Er10 appears on your Electrolux dishwasher, it indicates mains power relay problem detected. Model and control-platform context matters before any part is condemned. Use the observed symptoms and the full model number to confirm the correct diagnostic path.
The code identifies a diagnostic condition, not a guaranteed failed component: mains power relay problem detected. A symptom such as dishwasher may fail to start can fit more than one cause, including mains relay problem or electronic control issue.
This code is documented in Electrolux EIDW6105/EIDW5905 service data. Confirm the exact model before applying this diagnostic path.

Safe checks you can make
These are simple, non-hazardous checks only. If anything is unclear, stop and contact a technician.
Turn off power at the breaker.
Check whether the breaker or outlet shows an obvious issue.
Restore power only if the supply appears normal.
Do not test internal mains wiring yourself.
Important safety warning. Stop if the breaker trips again or there is heat, odor, or visible electrical damage.

A returning Er10 mains-relay code should be diagnosed by a technician.
When booking for Er10, note the full model number and whether dishwasher may fail to start. A model-specific diagnosis can then concentrate on mains relay problem without replacing parts by guesswork.
