ASKO Washer Error Code Pressure sensor

This error means the pressure sensor detected that the water level dropped to zero within 15 seconds during the first rinse cycle. The machine stopped because water is disappearing too quickly, either due to an unexpected drain, a siphoning condition, or a faulty sensor. The pressure sensor monitors water level by detecting air pressure in a hose connected to the tub, and a rapid pressure drop triggers the fault.

No, you should not continue running the washer until the fault is resolved. Running the machine without adequate water can stress the motor and pump, and a real water leak left unaddressed can cause floor damage or mold growth. Diagnose and correct the issue before resuming normal use.

A reset may temporarily clear the error code, but if the underlying problem is not fixed, the fault will return during the next wash cycle when the first rinse phase begins. Resetting is useful for confirming whether the fault is intermittent, but it is not a substitute for diagnosing and correcting the actual cause of the rapid water level drop.

Some causes are DIY-friendly, such as correcting the drain hose position to eliminate siphoning or reattaching a disconnected pressure hose. If the issue requires replacing the pressure sensor, drain pump, or control board components, those repairs are more involved and may be better suited for a technician with experience servicing Asko appliances.

Repair costs vary depending on the root cause. Correcting a drain hose installation issue costs nothing beyond time. Replacing a pressure sensor typically runs in the range of $50 to $150 in parts. Drain pump replacement can range from $80 to $200 or more in parts, plus labor if a technician is hired, which can add $100 to $250 depending on your area.
