What is actually happening
Constant bleeping is a fault warning rather than a fault in itself — the machine has stopped and is trying to tell you why. On most makes the pattern of flashing lights, or a code in the display, identifies it. Count the flashes and note any code before switching it off, because that reading is the fastest route to the right part.
The Blomberg fault codes that point at this
A Blomberg washing machine will usually tell you what it thinks is wrong before anyone opens it up. These are the codes we hold for this make that relate to beeping or bleeping:
- C01 — C01 isn't a fault at all — it's the last second of the three-second countdown as the child lock is being switched on or off.
- C02 — This isn't a fault — it's the middle of the three-second countdown the machine shows while you hold the buttons to switch the child lock on or off.
- C03 — This isn't a fault at all — it's the three-second countdown the display shows while you're holding the button to switch the child lock on or off.
- E00 — E00 isn't a fault at all — it's the delay timer showing zero, meaning the countdown has finished and the wash is about to run.
- E01 — The machine can't read the water temperature — the sensor that tells it how hot the water is has gone faulty or lost its connection.
- E02 — The machine can't get a signal through its heating element, so it has stopped trying to heat the water.
- E03 — The control board has spotted that the heating element is staying switched on when it shouldn't be, so the machine stops heating altogether to protect you and the load.
- E06 — The circuit on the main control board that switches power to the drum motor has failed, so the machine has stopped rather than risk the drum running out of control.
If yours is showing one of those, that is a much shorter conversation than a general fault — tell us the code when you book and the engineer can often carry the part.

- Write down the code shown, or the pattern of flashing lights, before you switch it off
- Check whether there is water left in the drum — that points straight at draining

Common questions
Why is my Blomberg washing machine beeping or bleeping?
The machine is bleeping repeatedly, usually with a light flashing, and has stopped mid-cycle. Constant bleeping is a fault warning rather than a fault in itself — the machine has stopped and is trying to tell you why. On most makes the pattern of flashing lights, or a code in the display, identifies it. Count the flashes and note any code before switching it off, because that reading is the fastest route to the right part.
Can I fix a Blomberg washing machine beeping or bleeping myself?
Write down the code shown, or the pattern of flashing lights, before you switch it off. Check whether there is water left in the drum — that points straight at draining. Look up the code on our error-code pages, which cover 708 codes across 24 makes. Those checks fix it more often than not.
