Possible Causes

Sticking water inlet valve, Incorrect water pressure, Control board timing error, Partially blocked inlet screen

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Turn off power and water before servicing the inlet system.

Steps:

  • Clean inlet screen: Remove the supply hose and clean the mesh filter at the valve.
  • Check pressure: Confirm that water pressure meets Neff's minimum requirement (typically 0.15–0.8 MPa). Very high pressure may cause overfill; very low causes underfill.
  • Observe fill: After reassembly, restore power and watch a fill cycle. If water continues to flow after the valve should close, the valve is sticking.
  • Reset control: Perform a power reset to clear any temporary timing fault.

Resolution: Replace the water inlet valve if it does not shut off cleanly or if E17 recurs despite correct pressure and clean filters.
