Dishwasher displays E9 and may stop with water remaining in the tub or with unusual noises from the base.

Safety first: Turn off power at the breaker and shut off the water supply immediately to prevent further leakage.

• 1. Pull out the dishwasher: Carefully slide the Hisense dishwasher out from under the counter, protecting the floor with towels.
• 2. Inspect the base tray: Remove the lower side or front panels to view the base. If water is present, the anti-flood float switch will have triggered E9.
• 3. Dry the base: Sponge out water and use towels or a fan to dry the base completely. Do not bypass the float switch.
• 4. Identify the leak source: With the unit pulled out, run a short cycle while observing underneath (use a flashlight). Look for drips from hoses, the sump seal, circulation pump, drain pump, or door area.
• 5. Tighten or replace components: Tighten loose hose clamps, replace cracked hoses, and inspect the Hisense sump gasket for splits. Replace any leaking parts. If the door gasket is torn or flattened, install a new Hisense door seal.
• 6. Reset and test: Once the leak is fixed and the base is dry, restore power and run a full cycle to confirm no further leakage and that E9 is cleared.
