Possible Causes

Partially failed heater, Faulty NTC sensor reading within tolerance, Eco program expectations, Rinse aid empty on AEG dishwasher

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow the dishwasher to cool and disconnect power before testing components.

  • Check program selection: Eco and low-temperature programs may leave dishes less hot. Test with an intensive or auto program.
  • Verify rinse aid: Ensure the rinse aid dispenser is filled and set to an appropriate dosage.
  • Check heater function: During a hot program, carefully feel the outer door or side panel; it should become warm. If always cold, the heater may not be operating.
  • Component testing (advanced): Test heater and NTC sensor with a multimeter. Replace faulty parts as needed.
