What Does My Dishwasher Error Code Mean?

Codes are set by each manufacturer. On Bosch and Siemens dishwashers, E15 means water in the base tray, E24 a blocked drain hose or pump and E25 a blocked pump cover. On LG dishwashers, IE means no water, OE a drain fault, AE a leak and HE a heating fault. Samsung, Defy, Hisense and Whirlpool use their own codes, which we match to the model.

Note the exact code, the model from the label on the side of the door and what the machine was doing, then book a repair. Our dishwasher repairs technicians use the code as the starting point and test the part behind it.

What Dishwasher Codes Usually Point To

Most dishwasher codes fall into one of these systems.

Water supply

Tap, pressure, inlet filter or inlet valve.

Drain

Filter, sump, hose or drain pump.

Leak protection

Water in the base tray has lifted the float.

Heating

Heater element, sensor or heat pump.

Door

Latch or door switch.

Wash pump

Circulation pump or motor.

Why Dishwasher Codes Appear

The control board stops the cycle and shows a code when a stage does not finish as expected. Common triggers include:

  • Fill taking too long
  • Drain taking too long
  • Water detected in the base
  • Water not reaching temperature
  • Door switch losing contact
  • Wash pump not circulating

When to stop using the appliance

Switch the appliance off at the wall if you notice a burning smell, smoke, sparking, exposed wiring, repeated breaker trips or water near electrical parts. Leave electrical covers, high-voltage parts and the heater, motor, pump and anything behind a cover to a technician, then call or WhatsApp 0719 227 718 and we will arrange an assessment.

Information That Helps Us Prepare

  • The exact code as displayed
  • The dishwasher brand
  • The model number from the label on the door edge
  • What the machine was doing when the code appeared
  • Your suburb in Harare

Photograph the display before resetting. A reset can clear the code and the clue with it.

How We Use the Error Code

The technician reads the code against the model, runs the test programme where available and tests the part behind it with a meter.
