Possible Causes

Low mains water pressure, Partially closed tap, Clogged inlet filters, Weak or failing inlet valve coil

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance and close the water tap before hose work.

Step-by-step checks:

  • 1. Confirm water supply:
    • Open the tap fully.
    • Check household water pressure; if low, consult a plumber.
  • 2. Clean inlet filters:
    • Remove the inlet hose and clean mesh filters at both ends.
  • 3. Test inlet valve:
    • Access the valve and measure coil resistance.
    • If out of spec or intermittent, replace the valve assembly.

When to call a technician: If E17 persists with good pressure and a new valve, control or sensor issues may need professional diagnosis.
