Dishwasher Error Codes: All Brands
Dishwasher error codes mostly point to one of four areas: water supply, draining, heating or leak protection. The same code can mean different things on different brands, so always match it to your make and model. Before calling for service, clean the filter in the bottom of the tub, make sure the drain hose isn't kinked and, if the dishwasher drains into a newly installed garbage disposal, check that the disposal's knockout plug was removed.
