Water is collecting at the base of dishwasher housing (under the bottom drawer). Need to dry it up and find out why. Make sure the dishwasher is disconnected from mains supply when you work in it.

It might be helpful if you can recall the code that was on the panel when the wrech symbol was flashing. something like F1 or U2

The F1 code indicates an overfill condition. One of the most common causes for an overfill fault is that the dishwasher cannot pump out the dirty water due to a plugged drain hose.

The F1 fault could be from your lid actuators not working properly or the lid seal needs to be replaced or check ur flood sensor it located at the back under a black plastic cover, the sensor is the little add on at the left. make sure u turn off power before touching anything

Hope helps.

Hi

Thanks for using FixYa. F1 error means that the flood switch has been activated. You’ll need to reset it by powering off the breaker or by unplugging the unit from the power socket and mains for more than five minutes. Please check that there is no blockage in the drain hose and it is not raised higher otherwise the water will run back to the dishwasher. Also perform the following procedure---

• Unplug power and remove bottom dish drawer
• Use a Sponge and dry all the excess water underneath
• Remove circuit board cover
• Dry all around and underneath as much as possible
• Apply hairdryer for 10-15min

Please do rate the solution if the issue is resolved or else revert for further assistance.


Thanks

I am assuming this F1 error is coming in only one drawer and that you are able to run the second drawer as normal.

In the case of your dishwasher the F1 error occured because the foam would have overflowed over the drawer top into the base of the unit. This would have triggered a flood switch which is there to protect water damage to the dishwasher. You can either wait a few more days until the base of the dishwasher drawer unit dries up or you can dry it yourself.

To dry the base, extend the drawer as far out as possible (turn mains power off first). The use a few towels and push them on to the base. Pull the towels out and dry the base especially the centre of it with a hair dryer.

The F1 should disappear once you put power back on .

Hope this helps. You have a very helful child who sets the dishwasher up. I have to keep pushing my children to even empty it.

Hi,
Below is the service manual. Use the FU (fill water) function in the diagnostics and then use P2 to drain the water. Open the drawer and watch will testing.
Good Luck
