Dishwasher displays F8E3; unit may overfill and then drain repeatedly, or water may reach the door opening.

Safety: Immediately turn off power and water supply to prevent flooding.

• Check float movement: Verify the tub float moves freely and is not jammed by utensils or debris. Clean around the float.
• Test float switch: With power off, access the float switch under the tub and test for proper operation with a multimeter. Replace if it does not open when the float is raised.
• Inspect inlet valve: If water continues to enter even with power off, the inlet valve is mechanically stuck open and must be replaced immediately.
• Pressure system: If equipped, inspect the pressure hose and sensor for blockages or damage and replace as needed.

Note: After repairs, dry any water from the base pan and reset the safety float if present.
