Dishwasher
Error codes Causes and Solution
PF
Causes
Power
Failure
Solution
Select
'cancel' to clear code. If error persists, check electrical connections to
dishwasher and electronic control (control board). Replace if defective.
C1
Causes
Partially
Blocked Drain
Solution
This
error will occur when dishwasher was unable to pump out water in less than 95
seconds. Check drain line for debris and blockage. If clear, check for a
restricted drain valve in the pump.
C2
Causes
Drain
Line Totally Blocked
Solution
This
error will occur when dishwasher is unable to pump out water within the maximum
time of 405 seconds. Check drain line and drain valve in pump for debris and
blockage. Note: If a new garbage disposal has been installed, remove knock out
plug for dishwasher drain.
C3
Causes
Will
Not Drain
Solution
This
occurs when dishwasher is not able to switch to the drain mode.
C4
Causes
Water
Over-Fill Fault
Solution
This
error usually indicates bad water inlet valve. Check for high water pressure to
unit.
C5
Causes
Low
Water Fill
Solution
This
error usually indicates bad water inlet valve. Check for low water pressure to
unit.
C6
Causes
Water
Temperature Too Low (After 20 Minute Extension)
Solution
Check
heating element and thermostat for continuity.
C7
Causes
Temperature
Sensor Bad
Solution
Replace
temperature sensor (remove door to access panel, sensor should be located
inside the door).
C8
Causes
Detergent
Cup Blocked
Solution
Check
for debris around detergent cup. Keep objects clear of cup when loading
dishwasher.
Microwave
Error codes Causes and Solution
F1
Causes
Oven
Cavity Thermistor Open
Solution
Check
oven thermistor for continuity and replace if zero or infinite ohms.
F2
Causes
Oven
Cavity Thermistor Closed
Solution
Check
oven thermistor for continuity and replace if zero or infinite ohms.
F3
Causes
Touch
Pad Shorted
Solution
Replace
touch pad (key panel).
F4
/ F5
Causes
Humidity
Sensor Open of Shorted
Solution
Replace
humidity sensor.
F6
Causes
Shorted
Temperature Probe
Solution
Replace
temperature probe.

Range -Stove Error codes Causes and Solution
F0
Causes
Function
Key Stuck
Solution
Replace
touch pad or touch pad and control board if one assembly. Refer to F1 Test for
more information.
F1
Causes
Function
Key Stuck
Solution
Replace
touch pad or touch pad and control board if one assembly. Refer to F1 Test for
more information.
F2
(During Bake)
Causes
Oven
Control Senses Oven Temperature above 615F-630F
Solution
If
temperature has exceeded 615F-630F, check for welded contacts on bake and broil
relays. If present, replace control board. If temperature has NOT exceeded
615F-630F, check sensor, sensor harness, and the sensor harness connection at
sensor and oven control. If found defective, replace sensor. Also check for any
causes of high resistance in the oven temperature sensor circuit.
F2
(During Clean)
Causes
Oven
Control Senses Oven Temperature Above 915F-930F
Solution
If
temperature has exceeded 915F-930F, check for welded contacts on the bake and
broil relays. If present, replace control board. If temperature has NOT
exceeded 915F-930F, check sensor, sensor harness, and the sensor harness
connection at sensor and oven control. If found defective, replace sensor. Also
check for any causes of high resistance in the oven temperature sensor circuit.
F3
/ F4
Causes
Open
or Shorted Oven Temperature Sensor (RTD)
Solution
Check
sensor harness and connection between oven sensor and oven control. If wiring
is ok, replace control board.
F5
Causes
Loss
of Relay Drive Circuit
Solution
If
error cannot be cancelled by selecting the 'cancel' function, the control board
will need to be replaced.
F8
Causes
Shorted
Meat Probe
Solution
This
error indicates a problem with either the probe, receptacle, or probe circuit.
Check the probe for pinched wires and make sure there is no condensation or
contamination on receptacle.
F9
Causes
Door
Lock Switch
Solution
Check
door lock switches and wiring.
FC
Causes
Door
Lock Circuit
Solution
Check
wiring and test switches. Most common cause of this error is pinched wires
between the control and the door lock switches on motorized lock circuits.
FD
Causes
Short
Meat Probe
Solution
Solution
This
error indicates a problem with either the probe, receptacle, or probe circuit.
Check the probe for pinched wires and make sure there is no condensation or
contamination on receptacle. If ok, replace probe.
FF
Causes
Loss
of Door Motor Safety Switch
Solution
Replace
control board.
FFF
Causes
EEPROM
Checksum Error
Solution
Replace
control board.
Washing
Machine Error codes causes and solution
IE
Causes
Water
Level Sensor Error
Solution
Press
'Power' button and check wiring harness, pressure sensor switch, and circuit
board for defects. Replace faulty part.
7E
Causes
Water
Supply Error
Solution
Press
'Power' button and check wiring harness, water valve, pressure sensor switch,
and circuit board for defects. Replace faulty part.
E
Causes
Drain
Pump Error
Solution
Press
'Power' button and check wiring harness, pump motor, and circuit board for
defects. Replace faulty part.
dE
Causes
Lid
Open Error
Solution
Close
lid. If error persists, check wiring harness, lid switch, unbalance switch, and
circuit board for defects. Replace faulty part.
UE
Causes
Unbalance
Switch Error
Solution
Open
lid and re-balance laundry manually. If error persists, check wiring harness,
unbalance switch, and circuit board for defects. Replace faulty part.
OE
Causes
Water
Overflow Error
Solution
Turn
off water supply to washer and disconnect power and unplug unit. Check wiring
harness, water inlet water valve, pressure sensor switch, and circuit board for
defects. Replace if faulty.
