Quick answer
Electrolux dishwasher code Er06 indicates lower fan speed feedback is not correct.
Model compatibility: Electrolux reuses codes across series and control generations, so Er06 may mean something different on another appliance or platform. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

What this code means

Treat this number as a diagnostic pointer rather than a parts verdict: lower fan speed feedback is not correct. Because drying or ventilation behavior may be abnormal, a technician will correlate the code with possibilities such as lower fan problem and fan obstruction.
