Beko E00 tumble dryer: what it means & what to check

What E00 actually means

On Beko tumble dryers, E00 isn't a fault at all \u9000 it's the code the control board shows when it has found nothing wrong.

Beko's dryer the fault starts at E00 meaning "no error", with the actual faults numbered above it (door opened during the cycle, water tank full, empty drum and so on). So if E00 appears when you enter the diagnostic or error display, the electronics are reporting a clean bill of health. If the dryer is nonetheless misbehaving, the problem is one the control board doesn't monitor \u9000 poor drying, long cycles, noise \u9000 rather than a logged electrical fault.

What E00 looks like on a Beko tumble dryer

Most people find this page having searched for what the machine is doing rather than the code itself. On a Beko tumble dryer, E00 usually shows up as one or more of these:

Machine door won't open
Door won't lock or click shut
Door lock light flashing
Door stuck shut with the load inside
Won't start even with the door closed
Machine not draining
Water left in the drum at the end of the cycle
Stops mid-cycle full of water

Recognise any of those? That is this fault, and the rest of this page explains what causes it and what you can check yourself.

What usually causes it

Nothing wrong \u9000 the dryer is reporting no stored fault
A previous fault that has since cleared itself after a power cycle
An entry into the service/error display rather than a genuine breakdown
A drying or airflow complaint the board cannot detect, such as a blocked filter or condenser

What you can safely check yourself

Work through these in order. Anything beyond this — panels off, testing parts, anything to do with the wiring — is an engineer's job, and not one to attempt with the machine plugged in.

Clean the door filter and, on condenser models, rinse the condenser filter as the manual describes
Empty the water tank and check the drain hose, if fitted, isn't kinked
Switch off at the wall for a minute, then restart a short cycle to see if the dryer runs normally
Check the door shuts firmly and the seal is free of fluff
