Error E1 in a Hansa dishwasher: how to fix it

If a malfunction occurs, an error code appears on the dishwasher display. With its help, it is possible to determine the condition of the equipment, the type and severity of the breakdown. Below are the error codes for Hansa dishwashers.

What's wrong?

The control signal about the locking of the machine door has stopped or there is no locking at all.

The reason may be that the door is not completely closed. In this case, you should pay attention to the condition of the wires connecting the controller and the door lock. There may also be a malfunction in the lock itself or the limit switch. Finally, you should look at the condition of the CM wiring.

The time for filling the tank with water to the required level has been exceeded. The excess was 2 minutes.

The problem lies in low water pressure. An error can also occur as a result of clogged hoses through which water enters the machine, or failure of:

In more expensive models, it is worth paying attention to the operation of the Aqua Spray ASJ system.

In an hour, the water in the dishwasher did not heat up to the temperature set in the program.

The error occurs when one of the parts that are responsible for heating the water breaks down. Such details include:

  • Sensor. In this case, we are talking about a temperature sensor or thermistor, which requires diagnostics and replacement when an error occurs.
  • Level sensor. If the device breaks down, excessive amounts of water may enter the chamber.
  • Thermistor. The device is not working properly and needs to be replaced.
  • Heating element control circuit. There may be a rupture in it. It is not necessary to change the chain; sometimes it is enough to ring the part and tighten the contacts.
  • Heater. If it burns out, then it can only be replaced.
  • Controller. It also requires replacement if it fails.

Also, the cause of the error may be a short circuit in the heating element circuit, due to which liquid begins to flow onto the housing.

Water pressure too strong. An error also occurs if there is overflow of liquid.

In case of high pressure, it is more difficult for the valve to cope with the incoming fluid flow. The result is a large amount of water entering the chamber. Possible ways to solve the problem.

  1. Call a plumber. The specialist will conduct diagnostics and reduce the pressure in the system.
  2. Close the water supply valve to the dishwasher. You can do this yourself.
  3. Replace the faulty fill valve.
  4. Check the condition of the wiring and repair it if necessary.
  5. Change the level sensor.

Also, the cause of the error may be failures in the electrical network. In this case, it is enough to reset the device settings.

The water does not heat up.

The reason is a failed temperature sensor. This device begins to send incorrect information to the dishwasher, causing the liquid to stop heating to the required level.

You can solve the problem in the following ways.

  1. Check the condition of the wiring connecting the sensor or heating element. Through diagnostics, it will be possible to assess the reliability of fastening contacts and connectors. If a breakdown is detected, it can be quickly fixed. You should read the instructions first.
  2. Replace a sensor that may have failed.
  3. Carry out professional diagnostics in the event of a breakdown of the control controller.

The last option requires inviting a specialist.

If a similar error occurs on the control panel, you should follow the same steps as listed for error E6.

Water stops flowing into the car.

The problem occurs due to a faulty distribution valve that blocks the flow of fluid. In this case, there is only one way out - to replace the broken device.

If the problem is not with the valve, it is worth checking the drain hose for kinks. Finally, the problem may arise from a shorted triac. A reason like this will require the presence of a professional.

An error occurs when switching the sensor.

Typically, the problem may be due to dirt on the touch control panel or the buttons on it. An error occurs if the switch is pressed for more than 30 seconds. The solution is quite simple: clean your dashboard.

Also, during operation of the Hansa dishwasher, the “Start/Pause” indicator may begin to flash. The problem lies in the door of the device not being fully closed. If the indicator blinks even after closing the door again, you should contact a technician.

When is specialist help needed?

During the operation of Hansa dishwashing equipment, various difficulties and problems arise due to wear and tear of elements, devices, and consumables. Most errors that occur on the dashboard due to the operation of sensors can be eliminated independently. But there are times when specialist help is required.

You will need to call a specialist if:

  • error codes continue to appear on the screen even after self-repair of devices;
  • the dishwasher begins to make strange sounds and vibrate;
  • obvious deterioration in the performance of the device becomes noticeable.

It is not recommended to ignore any of the listed options. Otherwise, there is a risk of rapid failure of structural elements and devices, which will lead to the cessation of operation of the equipment and the need to purchase a new unit.

A specialist will conduct a thorough diagnosis and help solve the problem in a short time.

In this case, the technician will not only restore the dishwasher to working order, but will also help you save money by solving the problem in a timely manner.

Prevention measures

You can extend the life of your dishwasher. A number of tips will help with this:

  • Before placing the dishes in the sink, they must be thoroughly cleaned of food residues;
  • Before starting the machine, it is worth checking that the equipment is connected correctly;
  • In the case of using expensive models, it is recommended to install a circuit breaker.

Using the latter, you can prevent damage to the device during a network reboot. Finally, experts advise using high-quality detergents that will not harm the structure of the equipment.

Hansa dishwashers are characterized by a long service life and high performance. Studying error codes will prevent premature failure of the device and help extend the life of the equipment.

To understand the reasons for the breakdown, knowledge about the principle of operation of the dishwasher will be useful. Let us briefly and clearly describe the sequence of stages:

  • Loading dishes, turning on the program.
  • Switching on the solenoid valve, water intake.
  • Pumping water with a circulation pump through a heating element, heating it.
  • Hot liquid is fed into the spray nozzles and flies out of the nozzles under pressure.
  • The waste liquid goes into the drain filter, where it is cleaned and can be reused.
  • After rinsing is completed, the water goes down the drain.
  • Drying starts or the cycle ends.

Why does the car fail? There are several main reasons:

  1. Poor build quality. Manufacturing defects.
  2. Unstable voltage in the network, which leads to damage to electronics.
  3. Incorrect installation and connection of the PMM.
  4. Using low-quality detergents.
  5. Operational problems.

A common problem is blockages in the drain and fill paths. Hence the problems with collecting or draining water. Poor cleaning of dishes before loading leads to foreign objects entering the filter and pump.

What problems are typical for Hansa dishwashers? In first place, according to the service centers, was a malfunction of the pressure switch, or more precisely, its electrical part. Users also complain about the following:

  • The machine does not turn on;
  • Very bad at washing dishes;
  • The body is electrocuted;
  • Noise during operation;
  • Poor supply of detergent.

In addition, error codes on the display can indicate a breakdown.

How can I fix these problems? Let's figure out in what cases you can carry out repairs yourself, and when it is better to call a specialist.

Troubleshooting methods

Change in line pressure

The manufacturer has designed it in such a way that the flow sensor in the Hansa dishwasher is set to a specific pressure range of 2.5 to 6 atmospheres, which is most often provided in the mains of residential complexes. Error code e1 is diagnosed when there is a deviation both upward and downward.

When there are surges in water pressure, if you are not going to just wait for everything to stabilize by itself, experts recommend installing an adjustable pressure relief valve that compensates for the change in pressure and your dishwasher will work with the parameters set by the manufacturer.

Problems with filter and inlet valve

These two parts are next to each other, so it makes sense to clean and check them as a pair. Before doing this, do not forget to turn off the power to the machine and turn off the water supply. First of all, it is necessary to dismantle the intake mechanism along with the hose. To do this, you need to unscrew one end of the intake hose from the body and the other from the water line fitting.

The filter is located near the intake site and has the appearance of a thin fine-mesh mesh. We thoroughly clean the mesh and hose from any deposits that may have been caused by water. If the filter is damaged, it is better to replace it, as it prevents clogging of internal elements, which are much more expensive and vulnerable to contamination.

The valve itself is checked for electrical circuit integrity using a conventional tester. If the test gives a positive result, then we assemble the assembly in the reverse order - first we insert the flow element, then we connect the assembly to the hose and connect the body and the water main tee. It's worse if the valve fails.

How to fix a broken valve? Most breakdowns cannot be repaired at home. If the intake device malfunctions, you need to purchase a new one from the store and install it yourself, which is not difficult.

Checking the drain

The next step is to check the functioning of the drain in the Hansa dishwasher. Violation of the normal draining mode will result in error e1 constantly appearing on the screen and the dishwasher will be unusable. To do this you need to do the following:

  • unlock the hopper lid;
  • pull out the lower basket;
  • unscrew the drain element and clean it from the applied dirt;
  • Unscrew the screws holding the seat;
  • pull out the flap;
  • check the possibility of free rotation of the impeller and the presence of debris in the rotation zone, clean the blades from possible plaque and dirt.

If after all these manipulations the machine does not display error e1, then the reason was the poor functioning of the drain system.

Checking the flow sensor

Another option that can be identified as the cause of error e1 is a malfunction of the flow sensor. On the Hansa dishwasher it is located behind the side wall on the left edge.

After dismantling the wall, remove any remaining water from the tank. Dirt, as well as small particles of impurities from the water, regularly get into the hollow tubes and are retained, which causes the controller to operate incorrectly.

If this does not help, then most likely the sensor is faulty and needs to be replaced. Electronic spare parts of this kind cannot be repaired due to their design. Just don’t forget to take a photo of the connection diagram, otherwise you will spend more time installing the new element than necessary.

If, after all your attempts, error e1 continues to appear in your Hansa dishwasher, then it would be a wise decision to consult a specialist who will tell you what to do.

Modern household appliances are designed in such a way that minor repairs or replacement of consumables can be performed by almost anyone. As a rule, such cases are described in detail in the operating instructions. Complex repairs are carried out in specially equipped workshops and are done by professionals with extensive experience.

Decoding the code

Looking at the operating instructions for the Hansa dishwasher, we will see how clumsily the E4 error is deciphered by the manufacturer itself. Literally, the decoding is presented as follows: “overflow of water.” What kind of water overflow? Where could it have flown to? It seems that the operating instructions for such machines are compiled by employees of authorized service centers. Well, what if the user reads the instructions, doesn’t understand anything, and turns to the specialists who are happy to try to “rip off” a couple of large bills from the poor user.

Repairing a fault on a Hansa dishwasher associated with error E4 can cost $150-200, taking into account the cost of spare parts and the work of a technician.

Of course, on our part this is a joke, no one will deliberately squeeze money out of a user, but the problem has not gone away, it must be solved. What we have? Here is error E4, here is a certain overflow, which is mentioned in the instructions and there is no more information.

According to experts, the error with code E4 is caused by the fact that water filled the tray of the Hansa dishwasher, which triggered the protection in the form of the Aqua-Stop system, which in turn blocked the operation of the equipment. Now, without fixing the problem, or at least draining the water, the machine will not be able to start.

Possible causes of the error

Based on the detailed explanation of the E4 error that experts give us, this problem arises due to the fact that some part, tube or pipe inside the body of the Hans dishwasher has begun to leak. The tray of the machine is not that roomy. About a liter of water is enough for the float of the Aqua-Stop mechanism to rise, activate the sensor, and the machine stops working.

The pump, circulation system pipes, inlet hose or pipe may leak.

The list, in principle, can go on and on until you open the case and find out what exactly is leaking. However, one of our clients experienced an error with this code for the following reason. Let's start the story in order.

A couple of years ago, our regular client approached us with a problem. His Hansa machine did not work, and it not only refused to work, but gave an E4 error. The user himself came up with the idea that there was water in the pan of the car, and that this is why the error popped up. He drained the water, started the machine, but after 3 minutes it stopped again, and the same code was displayed on the display.

Our technicians came to the call and immediately dismantled the dishwasher. It turned out that the reason lay in the flown pipe of the circulation system. The factory clamp loosened and the pipe came off, causing water to flow unhindered into the pan. However, this is not even interesting. The very fact that the pressure pipe jumped out of its place does not represent anything remarkable, but what caused the excess pressure?

Here again we cannot do without some background. The fact is that our client, when he bought a dishwasher, decided to immediately start saving and instead of special salt for the dishwasher, he used ordinary “Extra” table salt for several years. This caused some of the salt in the tank to turn into a thick salt porridge, which created an obstacle to the passage of water and excess pressure.

As a result, if the pipe had not flown off and our craftsmen had not paid attention to this, the client would have ended up with expensive repairs over time. After all, excess pressure creates a load on the circulation pump, which will break down much faster. All in all, it still ended relatively well. The moral of this story is this: don’t skimp on it and the trouble described above will not happen to your car.

How to find the cause?

Now let's talk about how to fix error E4, or rather the reason that this code causes. But first, this reason must be discovered, and for this, the Hansa dishwasher must be disassembled. What to do?

  1. Unscrew the screws and remove the top cover, back wall and tray.
  2. Unscrew the Aqua-stop.
  3. We remove the unscrewed sensor to the side and, in principle, the disassembly can be considered complete, since all the necessary parts that should be checked are at hand.

Well, the dishwasher is disassembled, now all we have to do is look at where the water is coming from and fix the leak. It is strictly not recommended to seal holes in pipes and hoses using electrical tape and sealant. Any damaged part must be replaced, otherwise operation of the dishwasher risks ending with error E4 again. We eliminate the leak and reassemble the machine in the reverse order.

In conclusion, we note that a Hansa brand dishwasher produces an error code E4 when the Aqua-stop system is activated. This means that a leak has formed somewhere and this leak must be eliminated in order for the “home assistant” to work again. There is no point in simply draining the water; it needs to be repaired. Good luck!

What to do when an error code appears

When an error code appears, you need to refer to the instructions for the dishwasher to find its explanation and understand what the reason is and what exactly is wrong with the unit.

Contact VseRemont24 if:

  1. The instruction manual for your dishwasher “helper” is lost somewhere.
  2. You haven't fully understood the description of the error.
  3. You took independent actions to eliminate the problem, but they did not produce results.
  4. We realized that the dishwasher needs repairs, and you need the help of a professional and experienced technician.

Dishwasher malfunctions can be minor and can be fixed within a couple of minutes, but most of them require complex repairs.

Any external or internal part, as well as the entire unit of the dishwasher, can fail.

Failures of important components lead to the most common malfunctions:

  • water leak,
  • lack of dialing, draining water,
  • no heating/overheating of water,
  • insufficient amount of water,
  • inconsistency of electrical network parameters with the necessary ones,
  • program malfunctions,
  • failure to perform individual functions or complete failure of the unit to work, and so on.

A faulty dishwasher works worse and does not wash dishes well. From a technology that saves water and electricity, it turns into an expensive “pleasure”. What is most important is that using a faulty electrical appliance is unsafe for people’s health and lives!

Reasons for error E4 in the dishwasher

Any type of dishwasher is equipped with an aquastop. This is an emergency system that is triggered when the pan is overfilled with water. As a result, error E4 appears on the display. The situation arises for several reasons. To find out, first the pan of the car is cleared of dirty water.

Troubleshooting is done in the following nodes:

  1. Drainage pipes, hoses and other elements of the drainage system. They may become thin.
  2. Error E4 will occur if the inlet hose plug fails.
  3. If the drainage tube breaks off from the pump, it will pump water not into the sewer, but back into the machine. The rubber tube can come off when the clamp is loosened
  4. A malfunction of the pump itself results in the car flooding.

To find out why the dishwasher gives error E4, open its case, check all elements of the drainage system and the functionality of the pump.

Description of error messages

The information provided on the display may vary for different Hansa models. Therefore, the following are the codes that are used on most models.

Error code E01 indicates that the tank is filling with water too slowly. There are many possible reasons for this. Some of them are easy to fix yourself without contacting the service.

This message may appear due to the following reasons:

  1. It is possible that water is not entering the machine at all. This is possible if the hose is clogged or pinched. Then it is enough to conduct an inspection and correct the situation.
  2. Sometimes the electronic control of your Hansa dishwasher can obstruct the flow of water. This happens if the door is not tightly closed. It's enough to just close it tighter.
  3. When water enters the machine, it passes through the solenoid valve. If the latter becomes faulty, replacement is required.
  4. The filling level of the chamber is determined using a special sensor. If it gives incorrect data, this may cause water not to flow.
  5. Sometimes it may happen that components and mechanisms are working correctly, but problems have occurred with the wiring. In this case, you need to check its serviceability and make sure there are no burnt wires. If an error is detected, the connection must be restored.
  6. If irregularities are detected in the operation of the control electronic controller of the Hansa machine, then to correct the situation you will need to contact the service to repair or replace it.

In most situations, repairs can be carried out independently.

When code E3 appears on the display, the error relates to the heating system. This manifests itself in the fact that after 60 minutes have passed, the water in the Hansa dishwasher is still not heated to the level required for washing.

In this case, the source of breakdowns may be the following:

  1. It is possible that the temperature sensor is broken. If this is the case, then replacement is required.
  2. The level sensor is faulty and a new one will need to be installed.
  3. It happens that the chamber now has too much volume. This is a sufficient reason for the heating to be insufficient. This happens, for example, if it was not detected in time that there was already enough water in the tank.
  4. If the wiring in the circuit that supplies energy to the heating element is broken. Then you need not only to check whether the contacts have come loose, but also to ring this entire circuit to detect a breakdown.
  5. Sometimes the heating element shorts to the body. In this case, it is better to replace this unit.
  6. If the heater burns out, then only replacing it can help.
  7. The operation of the dishwasher is controlled by an electronic board. If there are problems with it, then it must be addressed to a specialist workshop. In this case, it is impossible to carry out repairs on your own.

It happens that the amount of water that pours into the tank is too strong. In this case, the electronic diagnostics should issue code E4. Sometimes the result of intensive water flow is overflow.

To eliminate the breakdown, you need to take into account that the reasons may be the following:

  1. It is possible that the water entering through the plumbing system is under too much pressure. If the water supply is faulty, it is recommended to invite a plumber to repair it. However, there is also a situation when it is enough to simply reduce the water pressure in the hose.
  2. A faulty fill valve cannot be repaired; it must be replaced.
  3. If the pressure switch is working properly, but there is a break in its circuit, then to repair it you need to ring the contacts and correct the found break.
  4. Sometimes the level sensor does not detect a situation when the tank is full of water due to a malfunction. Water continues to flow and overflow occurs. Replacing the level sensor will help here.
  5. If the control board does not work properly, it becomes necessary to repair the electronic device. Only a service professional can do this.

For the device to operate, it is important that the machine receives reliable data from its nodes. If the temperature sensor is faulty, code E6 will appear on the display. In order to take action, you need to check the following:

  1. It may turn out that the sensor itself is working, but the wiring that goes to it is damaged. In this case, you need to inspect it for damage and call if necessary. Then you need to restore the connections.
  2. If the sensor is broken, then there is no point in repairing it - the situation can only be corrected by replacing it with a working unit.
  3. The operation of the Hansa dishwasher is organized by an electronic control board. If there is a malfunction in it, then there will be a complex repair that is almost impossible to carry out on your own. To do this, you need to contact a specialist in a repair shop.

If error E7 is displayed, this indicates a malfunction of the temperature sensor. It is necessary to react in this situation in the same way as to error E6.

In a situation where the machine has identified the failure code as E8, the faulty unit is clearly identified - this is the inlet valve due to which water does not flow. In this case, do the following for repair:

  1. If the valve is broken, you need to replace it with a new unit.
  2. The drain hose may be connected incorrectly.
  3. A triac short circuit occurred on the control board. Now you need to call a specialist who will check and repair or replace the control board.

If there is no code on the display, but the indicator (Start/Pause) is flashing, this indicates that the door is not tightly closed.

List and decoding of codes

Before we begin the story, I would like to warn you in advance that this time we decided to deviate a little from the usual work plan. This time we will first list and briefly decipher all the errors of Korting dishwashers, and only then move on to a detailed description of each code and the malfunctions that generated this code. So, let's begin.

  1. E1 - water either does not leak into the dishwasher at all, or leaks too slowly, which is detected by the control module.
  2. E2 – water is not removed from the dishwasher system.
  3. E4 – water from the dishwasher system has entered the tray.
  4. E8 – the level sensor incorrectly records readings and transmits them to the control module.

There are really very few codes, at least when compared with most dishwasher models that are sold on the Russian market.

Causes

When error E1 appears, you need to keep in mind two main groups of reasons: the first group is the reasons preventing the flow of water into the dishwasher and the second group is the complete absence of water or low water pressure. The check always starts with the second group of reasons, since they happen much more often. What to do? You need to open the tap in the kitchen or bathroom and check how the water flows. If there is no water, or it flows in too small a stream, then the dishwasher will not work.

In small villages, frequent water outages or pressure drops in the water supply are common. If nothing is done, the automatic washing machine or dishwasher will not work. To increase the pressure in the water supply, craftsmen install special pumps, which, by the way, are commercially available. By installing such a pump, you will forget about error E1 for a long time, unless, of course, the water is turned off completely.

Let's move on to the first group of reasons that create an obstacle to the flow of water into the machine. First of all, these are blockages. You need to turn off the water to the dishwasher, unscrew the inlet hose and find a mesh filter at its base. Often this filter becomes clogged and does not allow water to pass into the machine, so it must be cleaned at least once every 6 months.

You also need to check the intake valve to see if it opens completely. It happens that the valve begins to jam and does not open completely. In this case, repair does not make sense; the part must be changed. How to do it?

  1. Unscrew the screws of the side wall and remove it.
  2. We get to the intake valve and remove the chip with wires from it.
  3. Remove the valve mount.
  4. We remove the old valve and check it with an ohmmeter
  5. We put a new one in place of the old valve, connect the chip with wires and assemble the dishwasher.

The cause of error E1 may be the wiring connecting the control module to the inlet valve and the control module itself. The wiring can be easily checked with a multimeter, but it is better to have the control module tested by a technician.

The appearance of code E2 is due to the inability to remove the waste mixture of dirty water and detergent. What does this come from? In about half of the cases, the culprit is dirt that has clogged up in a plug in some area: in a pipe, in a pump, in a drain hose, in a siphon, in a sewer pipe. It needs to be removed from there, and then everything will be fine. In the second half of cases, spare parts such as pressure switch and pump are to blame. It is necessary to check these parts with a multimeter, find the fault and replace the burnt module.

If a water leak occurs, the machine displays error E4. The dishwasher body is designed so that the leaking water ends up in the tray. There is also a sensor with a float, which, when water gets in, is triggered and turns off the equipment. In this case, the control board reacts by displaying code E4. You can fix this problem like this:

  • we check the pan, if there is water there, you need to turn off the machine and tilt it on the right side in order to drain everything that has accumulated there;
  • Next, you need to check all the pipes and the bottom of the washing chamber for damage;
  • Having found damage, it must be eliminated, and then lower the float of the leakage sensor;
  • Next you need to assemble the machine and run a test dishwasher.

When faced with error E8, you should try to remove and check the water level sensor. Particular attention should be paid to the sensor tube. This tube has a thin hose attached to it, which should be removed and checked for blockages. The tube itself will also be checked for blockages. It is necessary to check whether the level sensor is securely fastened and whether the wires that connect it are not broken. After this, the wiring and sensor are checked with a multimeter and a final diagnosis is made - either we look further, or we change the pressure switch. You can read more about it in the article of the same name.

In slightly more rare cases, the E8 error is triggered by the control module. “Glitched” firmware can generally display any error code, so you need to transfer the “capricious” part to a specialist who will competently test it.

Troubleshooting technique

We have just described the errors of the Corting dishwasher and deciphered them. One really gets the impression that the self-diagnosis system is limited. To be honest, it doesn’t even cover 25% of all possible dishwasher malfunctions, and what should you do if something breaks in the Corting machine that is not indicated by an error code? The answer is simple, you need to watch and listen to how the machine works and trust common sense.

Suppose the thermistor or heating element is broken. There is no error code for these breakdowns in the Corting self-diagnosis system, which means the machine will continue to work no matter what. Pay attention to the quality of dishwashing and what kind of water it is washed with. Surely you will understand that washing is carried out in cold water, but after that you can take measures to check the heating element and thermistor.

If, for example, water has accumulated in the washing chamber of the machine and does not flow into the system, the Korting dishwasher may stop working, but not display any error. How to fix this? You need to turn off the machine, drain the water, and then unscrew and clean the garbage filter. It is the blockage in this filter that prevents water from circulating normally.

In general, we will not list all possible defects of the Corting dishwasher; this is the topic of a separate publication. Our main task is to show that even without a self-diagnosis system, defects in a dishwasher can be recognized, but if the system helps us, then this is only a plus.

The Hansa brand produces dishwashers that are very acceptable in both quality and price. But, as you know, any equipment breaks. So in our case, the E4 code in a dishwasher of this brand appeared when it was not expected, and completely stopped the operation of the equipment. Why did it appear and how to return your favorite dishwasher to working order? We will answer these questions within the framework of the article.

Two ways to reset dishwasher errors

If you have figured out the cause of the breakdown and decided on further actions, you can reset the error code.

There are two easy ways to do this:

  1. Disconnect the dishwasher from the power supply for 15-20 minutes. This time is enough for the control module to reset its settings and restart.
  2. Power on for 10-15 seconds . After this action, the equipment settings are also reset.

The recommendations described are suitable for dishwashers of different brands and models.

How to reset all Bosch dishwasher errors

One of the most popular in our country, the German manufacturer of household appliances Bosch, has provided for immediately resetting all previously accumulated errors in its units.

To reset the accumulated errors of the Bosch dishwasher and reboot it completely, you need to:

  1. Open the unit door.
  2. Start the “Power on” button.
  3. Press the 1st and 3rd program buttons at the same time. Hold for 3 seconds.
  4. Close the door and open it again.
  5. Start the Reset button. Hold for 3 seconds.
  6. Close the door and wait for the signal to finish washing.
  7. Open the door. Turn off the car.

Adding a solution

It is forbidden to write answers that do not bring any benefit to the questioner from the series: “take it to the service center”, “contact the ASC”, “unprofitable”, etc. Such answers will be considered a rating increase, the answers will be deleted, and the account will be blocked.

If you undertake to help people, answer fully. Explain why, if you recommend, for example, to reflash the phone, then write how to do it. If you write that repairs are unprofitable, explain why.

Adding answers that essentially repeat existing answers on this issue will also be considered cheating.

What does error E4 mean in a dishwasher?

Modern household appliances, including dishwashers, are crammed with electronics. Its work is connected with a huge number of sensors that control the entire work process. When one of the nodes fails, the sensitive element transmits a signal to the electronic unit. The work process is blocked. To make the reason clear to the owner of the equipment and the technician, the machine displays an error code on the display. If the dishwasher writes code E4, this means that there is a problem with the water.

The error code indicates that there is too much water in the tank.

A certain amount of water enters the dishwasher tank. If it is more or less, the automation blocks the work. It is error E4 that signals that the tank is full.

If you have no experience in handling equipment, you should not make repairs yourself. It is better to use the services of a service center. However, the work of a master will cost about 8 thousand rubles. A dishwasher breakdown is not so serious that it cannot be dealt with by a person who knows how to use a screwdriver and pliers.

Hansa dishwasher error codes - how to decipher

Dishwashers of this brand are produced in China. One of the important features of such devices is the economical use of available resources. This car brand began its existence back in 1997. However, already at the beginning of the 2000s, this equipment appeared on the Russian market. Most models can be classified as budget or middle class. If malfunctions occur, the owner sees error codes for Hansa dishwashers, which allow them to determine the type of malfunction and put them into working order.

General information

Almost all the latest models of devices include a display on which the Hansa machine can display messages for the owner. If an error occurs, the machine automatically determines its source and issues the necessary code. In accordance with the information received, the user determines what happened and knows what is recommended to be done to clarify the received data and for repairs.

However, older models, many of which are still in use, did not have displays installed. However, the designers provided the opportunity to find out exactly what problem arose. Data is transmitted by flashing indicators installed on the panel. In some models, both methods can be used simultaneously.

Description of error messages

The information provided on the display may vary for different Hansa models. Therefore, the following are the codes that are used on most models.

Error code E01 indicates that the tank is filling with water too slowly. There are many possible reasons for this. Some of them are easy to fix yourself without contacting the service.

This message may appear due to the following reasons:

  1. It is possible that water is not entering the machine at all. This is possible if the hose is clogged or pinched. Then it is enough to conduct an inspection and correct the situation.
  2. Sometimes the electronic control of your Hansa dishwasher can obstruct the flow of water. This happens if the door is not tightly closed. It's enough to just close it tighter.
  3. When water enters the machine, it passes through the solenoid valve. If the latter becomes faulty, replacement is required.
  4. The filling level of the chamber is determined using a special sensor. If it gives incorrect data, this may cause water not to flow.
  5. Sometimes it may happen that components and mechanisms are working correctly, but problems have occurred with the wiring. In this case, you need to check its serviceability and make sure there are no burnt wires. If an error is detected, the connection must be restored.
  6. If irregularities are detected in the operation of the control electronic controller of the Hansa machine, then to correct the situation you will need to contact the service to repair or replace it.

When code E3 appears on the display, the error relates to the heating system. This manifests itself in the fact that after 60 minutes have passed, the water in the Hansa dishwasher is still not heated to the level required for washing.

In this case, the source of breakdowns may be the following:

  1. It is possible that the temperature sensor is broken. If this is the case, then replacement is required.
  2. The level sensor is faulty and a new one will need to be installed.
  3. It happens that the chamber now has too much volume. This is a sufficient reason for the heating to be insufficient. This happens, for example, if it was not detected in time that there was already enough water in the tank.
  4. If the wiring in the circuit that supplies energy to the heating element is broken. Then you need not only to check whether the contacts have come loose, but also to ring this entire circuit to detect a breakdown.
  5. Sometimes the heating element shorts to the body. In this case, it is better to replace this unit.
  6. If the heater burns out, then only replacing it can help.
  7. The operation of the dishwasher is controlled by an electronic board. If there are problems with it, then it must be addressed to a specialist workshop. In this case, it is impossible to carry out repairs on your own.

To eliminate the breakdown, you need to take into account that the reasons may be the following:

  1. It is possible that the water entering through the plumbing system is under too much pressure. If the water supply is faulty, it is recommended to invite a plumber to repair it. However, there is also a situation when it is enough to simply reduce the water pressure in the hose.
  2. A faulty fill valve cannot be repaired; it must be replaced.
  3. If the pressure switch is working properly, but there is a break in its circuit, then to repair it you need to ring the contacts and correct the found break.
  4. Sometimes the level sensor does not detect a situation when the tank is full of water due to a malfunction. Water continues to flow and overflow occurs. Replacing the level sensor will help here.
  5. If the control board does not work properly, it becomes necessary to repair the electronic device. Only a service professional can do this.

For the device to operate, it is important that the machine receives reliable data from its nodes. If the temperature sensor is faulty, code E6 will appear on the display. In order to take action, you need to check the following:

  1. It may turn out that the sensor itself is working, but the wiring that goes to it is damaged. In this case, you need to inspect it for damage and call if necessary. Then you need to restore the connections.
  2. If the sensor is broken, then there is no point in repairing it - the situation can only be corrected by replacing it with a working unit.
  3. The operation of the Hansa dishwasher is organized by an electronic control board. If there is a malfunction in it, then there will be a complex repair that is almost impossible to carry out on your own. To do this, you need to contact a specialist in a repair shop.

If error E7 is displayed, this indicates a malfunction of the temperature sensor. It is necessary to react in this situation in the same way as to error E6.

In a situation where the machine has identified the failure code as E8, the faulty unit is clearly identified - this is the inlet valve due to which water does not flow. In this case, do the following for repair:

  1. If the valve is broken, you need to replace it with a new unit.
  2. The drain hose may be connected incorrectly.
  3. A triac short circuit occurred on the control board. Now you need to call a specialist who will check and repair or replace the control board.

Error codes and their elimination

If a malfunction occurs, an error code appears on the dishwasher display. With its help, it is possible to determine the condition of the equipment, the type and severity of the breakdown. Below are the error codes for Hansa dishwashers.

What's wrong?

The control signal about the locking of the machine door has stopped or there is no locking at all.

The reason may be that the door is not completely closed. In this case, you should pay attention to the condition of the wires connecting the controller and the door lock. There may also be a malfunction in the lock itself or the limit switch. Finally, you should look at the condition of the CM wiring.

The time for filling the tank with water to the required level has been exceeded. The excess was 2 minutes.

The problem lies in low water pressure. An error can also occur as a result of clogged hoses through which water enters the machine, or failure of:

In more expensive models, it is worth paying attention to the operation of the Aqua Spray ASJ system.

In an hour, the water in the dishwasher did not heat up to the temperature set in the program.

The error occurs when one of the parts that are responsible for heating the water breaks down. Such details include:

  • Sensor. In this case, we are talking about a temperature sensor or thermistor, which requires diagnostics and replacement when an error occurs.
  • Level sensor. If the device breaks down, excessive amounts of water may enter the chamber.
  • Thermistor. The device is not working properly and needs to be replaced.
  • Heating element control circuit. There may be a rupture in it. It is not necessary to change the chain; sometimes it is enough to ring the part and tighten the contacts.
  • Heater. If it burns out, then it can only be replaced.
  • Controller. It also requires replacement if it fails.

Also, the cause of the error may be a short circuit in the heating element circuit, due to which liquid begins to flow onto the housing.

Water pressure too strong. An error also occurs if there is overflow of liquid.

In case of high pressure, it is more difficult for the valve to cope with the incoming fluid flow. The result is a large amount of water entering the chamber. Possible ways to solve the problem.

  1. Call a plumber. The specialist will conduct diagnostics and reduce the pressure in the system.
  2. Close the water supply valve to the dishwasher. You can do this yourself.
  3. Replace the faulty fill valve.
  4. Check the condition of the wiring and repair it if necessary.
  5. Change the level sensor.

Also, the cause of the error may be failures in the electrical network. In this case, it is enough to reset the device settings.

The water does not heat up.

The reason is a failed temperature sensor. This device begins to send incorrect information to the dishwasher, causing the liquid to stop heating to the required level.

You can solve the problem in the following ways.

  1. Check the condition of the wiring connecting the sensor or heating element. Through diagnostics, it will be possible to assess the reliability of fastening contacts and connectors. If a breakdown is detected, it can be quickly fixed. You should read the instructions first.
  2. Replace a sensor that may have failed.
  3. Carry out professional diagnostics in the event of a breakdown of the control controller.

The last option requires inviting a specialist.

If a similar error occurs on the control panel, you should follow the same steps as listed for error E6.

Water stops flowing into the car.

The problem occurs due to a faulty distribution valve that blocks the flow of fluid. In this case, there is only one way out - to replace the broken device.

If the problem is not with the valve, it is worth checking the drain hose for kinks. Finally, the problem may arise from a shorted triac. A reason like this will require the presence of a professional.

An error occurs when switching the sensor.

Typically, the problem may be due to dirt on the touch control panel or the buttons on it. An error occurs if the switch is pressed for more than 30 seconds. The solution is quite simple: clean your dashboard.

Also, during operation of the Hansa dishwasher, the “Start/Pause” indicator may begin to flash. The problem lies in the door of the device not being fully closed. If the indicator blinks even after closing the door again, you should contact a technician.
