My AEG dishwasher has warning lights flashing?

How do I fix my AEG dishwasher when both lights (indicating anti-flood) are flashing? I can get the exact model later if this is necessary?

Tipped it over, smelly water came out - fixed! Saved me a £150.00 call out. Thanks.

Me too, worked a treat, pulled it out and basically gave it a good shake from side to side. The surplus water came out the bottom, I cleaned that up, pushed the dishwasher back in position and started it up, works fine. Top piece of advice, saved me a repair bill.

Did the trick here too! Continuous drone of water pump - pulled unit it out, tipped it back and forth, side to side and some water came out - turned it back on and everything is fine! Thanks! Probably saved me £100+

Hi, I recently had the seame problem. I pulled it out from under the worktop ensuring that the pipes were not going to break and turned off the water supply tap. If you then initially remove and clean the filters then tip the machine about 45 degrees back and forth or side to side all the water should leave the flood device sensor. I then used kitchen towels to absorb the worst. It now fully works as normal. Brilliant site! It helped me otherwise i would have had a call out to pay.
