Possible Causes

Excessive mains water pressure, Faulty flow meter reading too low, Sticking inlet valve, Blocked pressure chamber

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance and close the water tap.

  • Check water pressure: If you suspect very high mains pressure, install a pressure reducer on the supply line or partially close the tap to reduce flow.
  • Inspect flow meter and pressure system: Clean the side water matrix and pressure chamber as described for E14 and E2 to ensure accurate level and flow measurement.
  • Test inlet valve: Verify that the inlet valve closes promptly when power is removed. If it dribbles or continues to flow, replace the valve.
  • Reset and test: After adjustments, run a test cycle. Persistent E17 may indicate a control board calibration issue requiring professional service.
