How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Allow the appliance to cool before handling the water system.
Step-by-step checks:
- Check water tank: Remove, fill, and reinsert the water tank firmly until it clicks into place. Ensure no debris is on the tank contacts or seals.
- Clean tank contacts: Wipe the electrical contacts on the tank and in the oven with a dry cloth.
- Run rinse program: If available, run a rinse or cleaning program to flush the water circuit.
- Listen for pump: Start a steam program and listen for the water pump. If silent, the pump or its wiring may be faulty.
When to call a technician: If F50 persists with a full, correctly inserted tank, have a technician test the water level sensor, pump, and inlet valve.
