Low Medium High
Code Meaning Severity Common Symptom
ER Door latch / switch fault Low Everything appears normal on the display, but pressing Start produces no response or the ER code appears because the control board does not detect a closed door. View I20 Drain fault Medium The dishwasher completes or pauses mid-cycle, but several centimeters of water remain pooled at the bottom of the tub because the drain cycle did not clear the sump. View I30 Leak / flood protection High The machine halts abruptly during a wash or rinse phase. The drain pump may run continuously as the flood protection system tries to evacuate water from the base pan. View I40 Water fill fault Medium The machine begins a cycle but halts within the first few minutes, displaying i40, because insufficient water has entered the tub during the fill phase. View I50 Wash pump overcurrent High The machine fills with water normally but halts shortly after the wash motor should engage, displaying i50 because the motor drew excessive current on startup. View I60 Heating / temp sensor fault Medium Without adequate water temperature, detergent cannot dissolve properly and grease is not broken down, leaving dishes with residue and food particles. View IC0 Control board comm fault High The error code appears on the display but pressing any buttons produces no response because the user interface board cannot communicate commands to the main control. View IC1 UI board power fault High The UI panel receives insufficient voltage, causing the display to appear faded, partial, or to flicker between readable and blank states. View IC2 UI sensor circuit fault Medium One or more buttons on the control panel produce no effect when pressed, while other buttons work normally, indicating a localized sensor failure on the UI board. View IC3 UI memory / config fault High The control panel shows cycle names, times, or options that do not match your model, because the UI board is reading corrupted configuration data from its memory. View IF0 Water overfill High Opening the door reveals water level significantly higher than normal, potentially close to the door opening edge, indicating the fill was not stopped in time. View
