Scope of this page: the tables below are Husqvarna's own fault and information messages for the Automower 310, 315 and 315X wire models, from its operator's manual (edition line 1440 - 004, 2021)1. A message on another model can differ: the fault and error message reference lists the manual for each model, and the owner-report pages for the same messages. Each cause and action is put in plain words; the meaning is the manual's.

Husqvarna names its messages; it does not number them. Each shows what the mower's display shows: a name such as "Trapped" or "No loop signal", then the cause and the action. It may show the name in your own language; we give the manual's English.

310, 315 and 315X: what stops the mower

From the 310, 315 and 315X manual (2021), fault messages, pages 37 to 39. This manual says these messages are shown in the display of the product1.

Message Cause, per the manual What Husqvarna says to do
No loop signal Nine causes are listed: the power supply or low-voltage cable is not connected, or is damaged; the boundary wire is not connected to the station, or is broken; ECO mode is on and the product started outside the station; the wire is crossed on its way to and from an island; the pairing between the product and the station is lost; metal objects or buried cables close by; the product is too far from the wire If the station's lamp is not lit there is no power: check the outlet, the residual-current device and the low-voltage cable. Check the wire connectors and replace any damaged one; replace a broken section with new wire and an original coupler; put the product in the station, start it and close the hatch; lay the wire as instructed around an island; create a new loop signal; move the wire or make islands; redo the installation so that every part of the work area is within 35 m / 115 ft of the wire1
Connection NOT changed The change of loop signal failed Try to create a new loop signal several times; if it stays, speak to your authorized service technician1
Wheel motor blocked; Wheel motor overloaded; Wheel drive problem (left or right) Grass or an object is wrapped around the drive wheel. The manual prints one cause and one action against all three messages Clean the wheels and around the wheels1
Cutting system blocked Three causes. The first is printed as grass or an object wrapped around the drive wheel, the same words as the wheel rows above; the others are the blade disc lying in a pool of water, and grass that is too high The first action is the wheel row's. Move the product and stop water collecting in the work area. Cut the grass before you install the product, to a maximum of 10 cm / 3.9 in1
Cutting system imbalance Too few or too many blades Check the blades on the blade disc1
Trapped The product is stuck in a small area behind a number of obstacles Look for obstacles that make it hard to move on, and remove them or make an island around them1
Outside working area Six causes: the wire connections at the station are crossed; the wire is too close to the edge of the work area; the work area slopes too much by the loop; the wire is laid the wrong way round an island; metal objects or buried cables close by; the signal is hard to tell from another installation close by Check the wire is connected correctly and laid as the instructions say; try moving the wire; put the product in the station and create a new loop signal1
No drive The product is caught in something and slipping; the work area includes a steep slope; the guide wire is not laid diagonally in a slope Free the product, and wait for wet grass to dry; isolate steep slopes; lay the guide wire diagonally across the slope1
Collision sensor problem, front or rear The product body cannot move freely around its chassis Check that it moves freely; if the problem stays, speak to your authorized service technician1
Charging station blocked Poor contact between the charging plates and the station's contact plates after several tries; an object in the way; the station is tilted or bent; the guide wire is not installed correctly Check the plates make good contact; remove the object; put the baseplate on level ground; check the guide wire against the instructions1
Stuck in charging station An object in the way stops the product leaving Remove the object1

310, 315 and 315X: battery and charging

Pages 38 to 41 of the same manual1.

Mower tilted Tilted more than the maximum angle Move the product to a flat area1
Upside down Leaning too much, or turned over Turn it the right way up1
Alarm! Mower switched off; stopped; lifted; tilted The alarm was activated because the product was switched off, stopped, lifted or tilted, one row for each Adjust the security level in the Security menu1
Wrong PIN code A wrong code was entered; five tries are allowed, then the keypad is blocked for a period Enter the right code; contact Husqvarna customer service if you forget it1
Next start hh:mm The schedule stops the product operating; it has reached its maximum cutting time for the day (normal); or its clock or date is wrong Change the schedule; no action; set the time and date1
Today's mowing completed It has reached its maximum cutting time for the day Normal, no action needed1
Electronic problem; Loop sensor problem, front or rear; Tilt sensor problem; Temporary problem; Invalid sub-device combination; Temporary battery problem The manual prints one cause and one action against all six: a temporary electronic or firmware issue Restart the product; if the problem stays, speak to your authorized service technician1

What the tables do not tell you

They say what Husqvarna tells owners to do. They say nothing about how often a message appears or whether the action works. The owner-report pages in the fault and error message reference are for that. A message name that is not on this page may still be in your manual.


Nothing here matches your symptom?

A fault that isn't listed here doesn't mean nothing is wrong with your mower. The manufacturer's own manual is linked from this page, and the guides for this brand are listed on its overview.

If your code isn't here

  1. Find the message the mower shows in the tables on this page. Read the manual's cause and action for it. Many messages list more than one cause: read them all before you act.

    More about this step

    Applies when: the app or the mower shows a message.

    Worked if: you have Husqvarna's own action for that message, not a forum guess at what it means.

    Didn't work? Next: step 2 — Look at the lamp on the charging station. A wire model should...

    Method: the fault and information message tables in Husqvarna's 310, 315 and 315X operator's manual, read row by row for this page

  2. Look at the lamp on the charging station. A wire model should show solid or flashing green. A flashing blue lamp is the manual's sign that the boundary wire is not connected to the station or is damaged; a flashing red lamp, a problem with the station's antenna; a solid red lamp, an error in the circuit board or the power supply.

    More about this step

    Applies when: the message is about the loop signal, the charging station or leaving or finding it, or the mower stops with no message you can match.

    Worked if: you know whether the problem is the station and its wire rather than the mower.

    Didn't work? Next: step 3 — Open the owner-report page for your message. Find it from the...

    Method: the charging-station lamp table in the manual

  3. Open the owner-report page for your message. Find it from the table on the fault and error message reference, to see what other owners found and how many of them found it.

    More about this step

    Applies when: the manual's action did not fix it, or your message is in that table.

    Worked if: you have what owners actually did about it, beside what the manual says.

    Didn't work? Next: step 4 — Speak to your Husqvarna representative or approved servicing...

    Method: the owner-report pages named in that table; what they hold is stated on each

  4. Speak to your Husqvarna representative or approved servicing dealer. Do this if the same message keeps coming back, as the manual says.

    Stop and get help if

    the station lamp is solid red: the manual says an authorised service technician must correct that, so leave the station alone.

    More about this step

    Applies when: the message comes back after you have followed the manual's action.

    Worked if: someone with the diagnostic tool reads the mower, or you know the dealer's terms.

    Method: the manual's own wording on repeated messages
