This doesn't look promising (error is non user serviceable)
user manual:
However, it's made by electrolux, and close match service manual would be:
Perhaps that will be of use to you.
i have an AEG FAV40760 dishwasher that is showing an anti-flood fault according to the error lights , no water in the base and its bone dry.
I bypassed the switch in case it is faulty but still have the error lights and wont fill, possibly a case of needed the error to be cleared but nothing in the manual or anything i can find online for this model.

That sort of infers the drain pump motor should be running to clear the fault ~ perhaps that pump (or power switching circuit) has failed? It'd be the first place I'd go sniffing around to see what's thrown the error code...

M'kay...obviously it thinks it's flooded ~ did you check the operation/type of the anti-flood switch itself?...
Dishwashers are like magnets for cockroaches and that base plate looks like an inviting place for a nest.
Have you actually accessed that float switch?

I had a similar problem on my old Hotpoint. I had no idea how to reset the error. Same pump issue.
So, I tried holding down different buttons while powering on, eventually holding the start button for 5 sec reset the washer.
You could try similar.
Bugger....it's always a bad sign when a known fault condition is listed as non user serviceable ~ the way it's described in the electrolux service manual, this system is there to protect against (quote) 'leaks and/or spills', and you can probably guess there's some activation counter in the MCU controller, that can correlate which part of the cycle it's in when the flood switch triggers, how often it triggers, to differentiate between a leak and/or spill condition....then again, I do recall some machines where the controller would fail not from roaches, but by steam/caustic fumes flowing past a section of the controller PCB used to corrode it to failure.
My guess is resetting the fault code is one thing ; there may be something else (mechanical) that triggered it (and they already know what that is, and the user can't fix it =)
