Does this guide apply to your appliance?

Match the brand, device type and complete display code. The same code can mean something different on another product family or market; a series name does not confirm every model in that series.

No exact model number is recorded here. Confirm the code in your appliance manual before following a check.

Likely causes

  • Kinked, blocked, or damaged inlet hose restricting water flow.
  • Faulty water inlet valve preventing water from entering the dishwasher.
  • Water supply turned off or inadequate water pressure.

What to try

Inspect and Straighten the Inlet Hose

Easy
  1. Turn off the water supply to the dishwasher.
  2. Locate the inlet hose connecting the dishwasher to the water supply.
  3. Check the hose for kinks, bends, or visible damage that might restrict water flow.
  4. Straighten any kinks or replace the hose if damaged.
  5. Turn the water supply back on and check if the error clears.

Ensure Water Supply is On and Supply Line is Clear

Easy
  1. Locate the water supply valve for the dishwasher and ensure it is fully open.
  2. Observe water flow from the supply line to confirm adequate pressure.
  3. If water flow is insufficient, check for any plumbing issues in the supply line.
  4. Once confirmed, run a dishwasher cycle to see if the error clears.

The code returned or the check did not help?

Avoid repeated resets and do not select a replacement part from the code alone. Record the exact code, full model number, when it appeared, and the checks you tried with their results. Share these details with the manufacturer or service technician.

Disconnecting power does not establish that internal components are safe to touch. This guide does not authorize opening electrical components or bypassing safety devices.
