What we can confirm
Code E35, from the manufacturer's own documentation
A code is only meaningful together with the machine showing it — the same digits mean different things on different equipment.
The code
E35
The pressure sensor is reporting more water in the drum than the machine ever asked for, and the control has stopped rather than keep filling. Two very different things produce that reading: water genuinely arriving when nothing opened a valve, or a sensor reading high because the little hose to its air trap is blocked or kinked. The maker flags it as an installation issue, which points at the first. The reason to take this one seriously rather than canceling past it is that the failure mode of being wrong is a floor, and these machines are very often on the second story of a townhouse.

What it narrows down to
Error Code E35 indicates the washing machine pressure sensor is indicating water overfill. Water runs continuously. NOTE: This is a known installation issue. If your washer was recently installed or moved, have the installer verify the installation was done correctly.

What else belongs to the washers
On this make a code belongs to the appliance rather than to a product line. These are the other conditions this machine can display, and the models that can show this one — a display often has more than one thing to say, and the model number decides what any of it costs to put right.
Other codes this appliance can display
Error Code E11 indicates the washing machine isn't filling with water during the washing phase of the cycle. E11 may cause the unit to lock for up to 6 minutes. NOTE: This is a known installation issue. If your washer was recently installed or moved, have the installer verify the installation was done correctly.
Error code E21 indicates the washing machine water isn't pumping fast enough or is taking too long to empty. NOTE: This is a known installation issue. If your washer was recently installed or moved, have the installer verify the installation was done correctly.
Error Code E41 indicates the washing machine control board thinks the door switch is open.
Error Code E42 means that the door lock is not being recognized.
Reversed hose detection.
Control lock activator.
Error Code SU dS indicates oversudsing has been detected by the washer, which will result in the washer requiring additional rinses until the suds have been cleared. Each extra rinse the washer performs to clear the suds will add approximately 5 minutes to the cycle duration.

About Washer error code E35
What E35 means on this make
The pressure sensor is reporting more water in the drum than the machine ever asked for, and the control has stopped rather than keep filling. Two very different things produce that reading: water genuinely arriving when nothing opened a valve, or a sensor reading high because the little hose to its air trap is blocked or kinked. The maker flags it as an installation issue, which points at the first. The reason to take this one seriously rather than canceling past it is that the failure mode of being wrong is a floor, and these machines are very often on the second story of a townhouse.
Where this appears, and why not to clear it
On the appliance's own display, as a short single code — a letter and a number, or two letters. Nothing alternates and nothing arrives in halves on this make, so what the panel shows is the whole of it. Photograph it before you cut the power. This maker's own answer to most of these is thirty seconds at the breaker, and that is worth following once — but a display that has been cleared has taken the evidence with it, and there is no way to ask the machine for it again.
What to do about it
- If water is genuinely running with the machine off, shut the supply taps at the wall now and deal with the code afterwards.
- Press cancel to clear the display, then restart the cycle — the maker's own first step, and it separates a one-off reading from a persistent problem.
- Do a hard reset: pull the cord, reconnect, and wait for the cycle to end or beep before restarting.
- If it returns, book it rather than running the machine. An inlet valve that does not fully close is the ordinary cause, and it does not get better on its own.
Where this goes next
The job this usually becomes is diagnostic visit, and that page carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. If it turns out to be nothing — and on this make a real share of these are modes, reminders and settings rather than problems — the visit ends there and you pay the diagnostic and nothing else, or call (305) 912-9018 and describe what the panel is doing before booking anything.
