Questions
about E36.

Can I clear E36 myself?
Switch the washer off, wait a moment, then switch it on again. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
What are the UI and PMCU in an Asko E36 message?
The UI is the control panel you use; the PMCU is the power control unit that runs the washer. E36 says they are not talking to each other.
Is E37 on an Asko related to E36?
It involves the same two units: E37 reports software versions that do not match, and the manual sends it straight to a technician.

Still showing E36?

Book with the code as it appears, the full model number, and whether any water is on the floor — for a code, that is where the diagnosis begins.
