Possible Causes
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Disconnect power and close the water tap before adjustments.
E17 is related to overfilling or too rapid filling.
- Step 1 – Check water pressure:
- If you have very high mains pressure, consider installing a pressure reducer on the supply line.
- Step 2 – Inlet hose and valve:
- Inspect the AquaStop hose and valve for sticking or debris.
- Clean the inlet filter screen.
- Step 3 – Flow meter:
- As with E14, inspect and, if necessary, replace the flow meter if it is miscounting pulses.
- Step 4 – Test:
- After any changes, run a test cycle and monitor filling behavior.
If E17 persists despite normal water pressure and a clean inlet system, the control board may be misinterpreting flow data and require replacement.
