You have a leak around the pump area and need to locate and repair this to use this unit. This fault code is to protect you home. This mean your unit is leaking during use and water is collecting in the base pan. You may need to run the unit were you can see the leak to repair. If possible you may also check you drain hose, it that leak it can also drain back into the base pan.
Good Luck

Does it leak during pump-out only?
If so , must be drain hose .To see everything,remove kick plate to isolate leak. Check hose connections. Fill and drain and observe.Or run a whole cycle with kick plate off to find leak.





Good luck

1 .Cut back on the amount of detergent used during the wash cycle. Sometimes this alone will solve your problem.

2 Make sure the appliance is level by adjusting the front feet up or down.

3. Take off the lower front panel and check the hoses for leaks.

please comment on this post stating how it help you with your dishwasher

is the dishwasher leaning foward,are you useing to much soap?start the dw with out anything in it let it run a few minutes open the door and see if there are suds in it if so way to much detergant

depends. take the lower panels off the dishwasher below the door right at the floor. Once this is done you will need a flashlight. If possible lay on the floor with the flashlight and activate the dishwasher. Look for the leak at that point. If it starts leaking in the drain cycle then the impeller is leaking and will need to be replaced. These can be a little pricey so take the model and serial numbers and call an appliance parts house for the cost and it is a little bit of a hassel to replace so only you will know if you want to tackle it yourself or buy a new dishwasher. If is leaking during the rinse cycle then the gasket at the base if the washer (where the motor connects to the dishwasher itself) has gone bad and this is a bugger bear to repair. So it's up to you if you want to repair or replace.

Good luck on repairs Hope I helped you some

e1 is a leakage error. you will have to find where it is leaking from...crack hose .crack motor assy.. water must be leaking
The excessive RPM of Washing Motor happened during Wash cycle due to water leakage.
Water leakage in Hose connections. Water is leaked by damages. The Motor Water Seal leakage of Sump assembly. The height of Drain Hose connection (sink-Drain Hose) is not over 20 . Impeller of the Washing Pump is worn away.

The unit has a leak causing floor sensor activated.
1- Unplug power cord.
2- Pull oull half way the drawer so an access from the bottom left could be obtained.
3- Use Paper towel or small towel to dry out the water on the bottom housing.
4- Wait for 48 hour so the sensor can be dry out.
Plug in the power cord. The unit will act as normal.
Your problem is solved.

However you can't operate since you know you have a leak problem. Let me know how it in progress and you decide to call service to fix it or I can guide you to fix it. Good luck.

The F2 lights blink due to a water senser in the compartment where the motors are located. Remove the bottom kick panel and other covers to access this area of the unit. Unplug the unit before working in this area as wires are abundant. Check the pan to see if water is present. Dry out the pan with a towel and then maybe a hairdryer to clear the F2 alarm. The real questions is what caused the water to be there. Start a cycle and watch to see if there are any leaks on the inlet water line. If not, let the unit run and see when water enters the pan. If it enters during the washing cycle, a gasket leak is likely. If it enters during the drain cycle, perhaps a drain hose is leaking.

If it is not overfilling, and then leaking, the whirring noise can be a defective water inlet valve, that stays stuck on open, see here : It's overfilling

If it is not overfilling, the two problems may be unrelated, and the noise can be froma foreign object inside the object trap.

See here about leaks and noise

It's noisy

It leaks

First the source of the leak needs to be identified. pull the machine out from under the counter and remove the left side panel exposing the blue float assembly. Turn the machine on and observe the fill cycle. if water comes out anywhere on the fill mechanism then the inlet valve needs to be replaced. once the machine has filled and begun to cycle cancel the program and drain the unit. observe closly where the leak is happening. a leak during drain usually indicated a leaking drain hose.
