Hey guys, wondering if any of you know what E36-11 or E31-11 is on a new Siemens washer dryer. My sisters 2yr old Siemens started making the error tone really loudly and displayed one of these codes, I know it ended in -11 but am unsure whether the start was 36 or 31. When I went to check the load was still mostly dry with powder stuck inside most garments (prewash was selected). So it had hardly started filling, drain pump was fine. Any ideas? From what I can tell the water inlet was fine (diff error code and compartment was clear) but it clearly didn’t even manage to fully saturate before erroring out as prewash does one large fill in one go for saturation

Only thing I can think of is that some items were already saturated going in and the rest dry, would this throw off the motor board into thinking the motor was being jerky/unstable? On the next cycle without taking anything out it sensed fine and carried on as normal
 
E36-11 is no used error for code. Closest is E36-10, which would be a drain error.

E31-11 is a pressure sensor error - pressure sensor tube not connected / defective or pressure sensor defective.

Given it runs now fine I'd guess that was just a communication glitch between the PCB and the pressure switch.
