# Electrolux washer showing HO SE

HO SE is Electrolux's reversed hose detection.

## What HO SE actually means.

HO SE is Electrolux's reversed hose detection. The display shows HO, then SE, then 0 min for 60 seconds, repeating, when the washer senses hot water on the cold inlet and cold on the hot.

What to do when HO SE shows on the washer

### Kind of code Water supply

Water arrived too slowly, not at all, or kept coming after it should have stopped. The supply valves on the wall and the screens inside the fill hoses are checked before the inlet valve or the level sensor.

### Usually leads to Water inlet valve repair

A washer that will not fill, fills slowly, fills with only cold water or keeps filling, repaired at the inlet valve and its screens.

### Shows up as Washer Not Filling

The washer starts, hums or clicks, but little or no water comes into the tub, or it fills very slowly.

### Make Electrolux

Full-size front-load washers from the Swedish group, commonly bought as a set with an Electrolux dryer.

## Questions about HO SE.

### Can I clear HO SE myself?

Press Cancel to acknowledge the alert. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why does my Electrolux flash HO SE and 0 min over and over?

That is how the display shows reversed hose detection. The hot and cold hoses are on the wrong inlets.

### Do I need a technician for HO SE on my Electrolux?

Usually not. Turn off the valves, swap the hoses to the correct inlets and turn the water back on.
