Dishwasher shows AL10 and may not heat or complete cycles correctly.
Heater / Heating Circuit Error
F01
Dishwasher will not start a cycle, all LEDs may flash or start/pause light blinks repeatedly shortly after pressing start.
Main Power Relay / Control Board Failure
F02
Dishwasher fills but circulation does not start, or cycle stops early with F02 indicated by flashing LEDs or on the display.
Circulation Pump Motor Fault
F03
Dishwasher stops mid‑cycle, often during heating phase, and may show F03 or a pattern of 3 flashes. Dishes are left cold and wet.
NTC Temperature Sensor Fault
F04

F07
Dishwasher does not heat the water, cycle may run long and end with F07 or 7 flashes. Dishes come out cold and poorly cleaned.
Heating Circuit Fault
F08
Dishwasher stops with F08, often related to heating or drying phase; may also show steam but poor drying performance.
Heater Relay / Triac Stuck or Open
F09
Dishwasher behaves erratically, random LEDs flashing, cycles not completing, and F09 may be logged or displayed.
EEPROM / Software Configuration Error
F10
Dishwasher reports F10 or 10 flashes, often associated with water level detection issues such as overfilling or not detecting empty.
Water Level Sensing / Overfill Detection Fault
F11
Dishwasher attempts to drain but fails, often with a loud hum from the base, then stops with F11 or 11 flashes.
Drain Pump Electrical Fault
F12
No communication between user interface and main control; display may be blank or unresponsive, with F12 logged in diagnostics.
Communication Error Between Display Board and Main PCB
F13
Dishwasher stops with F13, often related to drying or fan operation on models with active drying systems.
Drying Fan / Ventilation Fault
F15
Dishwasher will not start and immediately attempts to drain, often continuously, with F15 indicated. This is commonly linked to water in the base tray.
Anti-Flood System Activated (Leak Detected)
