I have an E24 message on my Kenmore dishwasher - model 630.1390

The E24 error code on a Kenmore dishwasher model 630.1390 typically indicates a problem with the drain pump or the drain hose. This can cause the dishwasher to start adding water but then shut off and display the E24 error message.
Here are some steps you can try to fix the issue:
  1. Check the drain hose for any clogs or blockages. Make sure the hose is not kinked or bent and that it is properly connected to the garbage disposal or drain.
  2. Inspect the drain pump for any debris or foreign objects. Clean out the pump, if necessary.
  3. Check the air gap on the dishwasher. Make sure it is not clogged or blocked.
  4. Inspect the control board and check for any error messages.
  5. Power off the dishwasher and unplug it for 10 minutes to reset the electronic control board.
  6. Make sure the dishwasher is level and that the legs are adjusted properly.
If the problem persists even after trying these steps, it might be best to contact a professional technician for further diagnosis and repair.

Kenmore elite 100 series.. fills with water for wash but drains immediately

If your Kenmore Elite 100 series washing machine is filling with water for the wash cycle but immediately draining without actually washing the clothes, there could be a few potential causes:

1. Faulty or clogged water level pressure switch: The water level pressure switch is responsible for sensing the water level in the tub and signaling the washer to stop filling once the appropriate level is reached. If this switch is faulty or clogged, it may be signaling the washer to drain the water immediately. You may need to replace the pressure switch or clean the hose that connects it to the tub.

2. Clogged drain hose or pump filter: A clogged drain hose or pump filter can prevent the washer from properly draining the water, causing it to immediately drain as soon as it fills. Check for any clogs or blockages in the drain hose or pump filter and clear them if necessary.

3. Broken or faulty drain pump: If the drain pump is broken or not functioning properly, it may not be able to properly drain the water from the washer, causing it to immediately drain. You may need to replace the drain pump if it is broken.

4. Malfunctioning control board: In rare cases, a malfunctioning control board may be causing the washer to immediately drain after filling. If none of the above solutions work, it may be worth having a professional technician inspect and potentially replace the control board.

What do you do if machine starts filling tube

Mystery machines are always problematical to answer. We ask for full 'make model (what it is)', and a clear question.

Do you mean the drain hose? The only other tube is the one to the water level sensor.

Drain hose issues are normally caused by pump obstructions.

Water level sensors can fail, but you need to make sure the seal on both ends of the pipe are airtight.

Where do I troubleshot? Kenmore 80 Series Hvy Dty Washer. Water will not shut off filling drum on any water level. Also no selection of wash cycle will work. Only rinse and spin. It continues to fi

Ok, there is a tube running from the fill switch to the tub, as water fills the tub the air in this tube will activate the switch. If there is a hole in this tube the switch will not stop the water. I fill the tub about 1/4 full, take the tube off the switch and blow through the tube, If you hear air escaping patch the hole or replace the tube.

    Kenmore 80 series leaking

    well you can try filling the outer tub separately.with what you mentioned, the problem is certainly not with the drain hose or the pump. fill the tub separately with some water and if the leak is seen then the problem is certainly with the outer tub corrosion or crack on it.

    Draining

    Two part question, two part solution (I hope). First the Whirlpool, most of the drain problems I have encountered with the Whirlpool top loaders can be attributed to a few things: 1. Defective Lid Switch - washer will fill normally, but will stop suddenly when it begins to agitate. The tub will remain filled with water and will not drain. Cost: about $30. 2. Defective Motor Coupling - Since you mentioned washing a blanket, heavier loads can put some wear and tear on the motor coupling, and wear them out. The couplings from the manufacturer are usually comprised of all of plastic and have been known to strip. After market couplers have a steel grommet in the center to prevent this. Symptoms: Washer will fill, but will not agitate. You will hear a loud rattling noise during the wash cycle with the drum remaining still. The tub will still drain sometimes, but won't spin. Cost: about $15 3. Clogged Drain Pump - Located inside the machine under the wash tub in the front. The pump is small (white of gray plastic) with two hoses connected to it. The pump does not come apart, so you will have to remove the hoses to inspect inside. If your tub is full of water, however, a wet/dry shop-vac will come in handy to remove the water, FIRST!. Symptoms: Washer will fill and agitate, but will not drain during the rinse or spin cycle. If clogged, severely, the pump shaft connecting to the drive motor will strip and the pump will need to be replaced. Cost: about $40. Now...the Kenmore. Fill problems where the water does not shut off are usually attributed to a bad pressure switch. The pressure switch would be the load level selector on the console. Before you call the switch bad and order a new one, however, inspect the clear plastic hose from the switch all the way to the bottom of the wash tub. This is known as an "air-dome" hose and sometimes will crack or develop holes in them. If the air is allowed to escape from the hose, the air pressure will never be substantial enough to shut the pressure switch off. It may be an easy fix of just replacing a rubber hose. Good luck and I hope this helps you.
