AEG Washer Error Code CC

The CC error code on an AEG washer means the PTC thermistor monitoring the MOSFET components on the DC motor electronics board has detected an overtemperature condition. The machine shuts down automatically to prevent damage to the motor control circuitry. This is a thermal protection fault that points directly to the DC motor electronics as the component requiring attention.

No, you should not continue running the washer while the CC code is active. The error indicates the motor control electronics are overheating, and operating the machine in this state risks permanent damage to the board or the DC motor. The washer should remain out of service until the fault is diagnosed and the affected components are repaired or replaced.

Repair costs vary depending on which components need to be replaced and local labor rates. A replacement DC motor electronics board typically ranges from around 80 to 250 dollars for the part alone, and professional labor can add another 80 to 150 dollars depending on the service provider. If the DC motor itself is also found to be faulty, total repair costs could be higher.

Resolving the CC error requires diagnosing and most likely replacing the DC motor electronics board, which involves working with the internal electrical components of the washer. Technicians comfortable with appliance electronics can perform this repair, but it is not a basic DIY task. If you are not familiar with motor control boards and wiring harnesses, professional service is recommended.

A power reset may temporarily clear the code if the board has cooled down, but the error will return if the underlying cause is not addressed. Because the CC fault points to a hardware problem with the DC motor electronics, a reset alone does not fix anything. The root cause, whether a faulty board, motor, or thermistor, must be identified and corrected.
