Indesitg dishwasher errors: how to fix

Decoding Indesit dishwasher errors

What are error codes for Indesit dishwashers? And not only Indesit, but also in any modern models there are such codes. What are they needed for? What do they mean? And what should you do if a signal appears? It's simple - the indicator reports an error in the operation of the unit.

The letters and numbers displayed must be deciphered to get rid of the problem. This could be mechanical damage, a breakdown of one of the components, or problems with the electrical circuit. To figure it out, you need to look at the instructions for the dishwasher. But, manufacturers do not always include a code table in it.

Dishwasher Indesit

Equipment

The DSG 0517 dishwasher set included the following components:

• head unit with mounted irrigation nozzles and power cable;
• flexible hose for connection to the water supply;
• corrugated sleeve for draining waste;
• plastic bracket for fixing the sewer drain on the side of the sink;
• metal baskets for dishes (upper and lower location);
• additional basket for cutlery;
• user manual;
• trial packs of detergent composition (varies depending on the release date).

Indesit errors

If the Indesit dishwasher gives an error, you can decipher it by having a list of codes before your eyes:

Errors in the Indesit DSG-0517 model

Errors in the Indesit DSG-0517 dishwasher are not much different from the encryption codes listed above. If the instructions do not contain this information, it can be downloaded from the manufacturer’s official website.

Here are a few more transcripts that relate to instance DSG-0517:

If your dishwasher produces one of these signals, you can decipher it yourself. And fix the damage. It is important to remember that before you begin inspecting your equipment, you must disconnect it from the electrical source.

The code table always contains explanations for each number. It is important to pay attention and understand. If this does not work, contact the service center.

Problem with heating element

The heating element often fails due to scale and power surges. Tap water in some localities is too hard and contains a lot of salt, leaving a residue on the surfaces of working elements. The heating element overheats and burns out. In addition, much more electricity is consumed than usual. How to replace a part?

• Disconnect the PMM from the power supply.
• Turn off the liquid supply.
• Place the dishwasher on the side of the cabinet.

• Open the bottom panel.
• Check the serviceability of the heating element, which is connected to the pump in Indesit IDL 40 machines, by disconnecting its wiring and applying the multimeter probes to the contacts.

If a part breaks, it is completely replaced. It is worth loosening the clamps, disconnecting all adjacent structural elements, and removing the wiring. Then not only the heater is pulled out, but also the pump.

Important! The heating element is taken out by turning it clockwise only.

A new heating device is installed after removing the seal from the pump and replacing it. The device is easy to put on after lubricating the joints with a special compound. All the above steps are performed in reverse order.

There is no reaction from the dishwasher when pressing buttons

If you turn on the dishwasher (DMM), but there is no light indication and the device does not respond to button presses, first check if there is power in the outlet to which the unit is powered. If everything is fine with the electricity, then the cause of the trouble may be oxidized contacts in the distribution box located inside the PMM. To access them you will have to disassemble the device.

The box is located at the bottom of the unit near the front panel. This area may be exposed to moisture, which leads to rapid oxidation of the contacts. Unscrew them and clean them with sandpaper, then screw the contacts into place and try to turn on the device.

If the breakdown persists, then the cause may be a faulty electronic control unit.

The machine control module is a complex electronic device that can be called the “brain” of the unit. It contains built-in programs and controls the entire “stuffing” of the PMM. Therefore, it is highly not recommended to repair this unit yourself. Only a qualified specialist can cope with the breakdown, and in this situation you cannot do without calling a specialist.

Error codes for Indesit dishwashers

Over the many years that dishwashers have been produced under the Indesit brand, many models have been produced on several variants of technological platforms, with different electronic control boards, and with different types of user interfaces (control panels). For Indesit PMMs, the same platforms are used as for Ariston brand dishwashers and the error codes of both brands are almost completely the same.

In general, error codes for Indesit PMMs are standardized, but the problem with their display is that there are too many options: in this article we will try to describe the error code display of the most popular control boards (modules), and we will give examples of numerous design options for control panels of Indesit dishwashers.

See this article:

In order not to repeat the description of the same error codes, they will be fully listed only in the first table of codes (for DEA 601/602/700 boards), and all subsequent ones will refer to it, since the set of codes for different control modules often differs only in their indication.

Water supply stopped

This is a fairly common situation when there is a water supply in the water supply system, but it is not poured into the dishwasher. Dishwasher malfunctions may be caused by a clogged filter screen or a faulty fill valve. They are located at the very bottom of the device, at the connection point of the inlet hose.

To check these elements, you need to disconnect the device from the water supply and remove the panel. If the mesh is clogged, it should be washed under a strong stream of water.

You can verify the operation of the supply valve using a tester by “ringing” the winding of the coils. To do this, you will need to disconnect the wires from the coil terminals and measure the resistance:

Do-it-yourself repair of PMM "Indesit"

If you want to carry out repairs yourself, prepare the machine. Slide it out of its niche to inspect the body and make disassembly easier.

Dishwasher does not fill with water

Inspect the unit's inlet hose. Maybe it's pinched or bent, so water isn't getting into the tank. Turn the shut-off valve; it should be completely open. Check the pressure in the tap. If the water is turned off, wait until the supply is restored.

Now begin a thorough inspection and cleaning. Prepare a container and disconnect the hose from the housing. Behind it is a filter mesh that blocks small debris from entering the chamber. Clean both elements from blockages.

Check the inlet valve. If the mechanical part is clogged with debris, remove it. If the electrical coils burn out, replace the valve. Disconnect the hose from it and turn off the wiring chips. A similar element is replaced.

Water does not drain

Why doesn't the drain in the PMM work? The main problem is blockages. Pieces of food and napkins from dishes fall into the filter, clogging it. Sometimes a foreign object blocks the operation of the impeller, then pumping out the liquid stops.

• Open the loading door.
• Remove the trays from the hopper.
• Unscrew the filter at the bottom. Rinse its mesh with warm water and clean it with a brush.
• Remove liquid from the hole behind the filter.

• Remove the cover and clean the pump impeller.
• Disconnect the drain hose from the sewer.
• Remove debris from hose. A blockage often forms in the plastic bend of the sewer.

Actually, I don’t understand what happened to the machine. A couple of days ago it stopped working normally. When starting, after selecting a washing program, the machine fills with water and for how long, and immediately starts draining. At the same time, the “Wash” and “Wash End” LEDs start blinking " I thought maybe it was something with the filters. I cleaned everything I could. The cold water pressure is good. I rang everything I could. The heating element, the windings of the pump motors and the filling valve are intact.

I read the articles on the site for a long time. But I still don’t know what could be wrong with the machine.

Please tell me what to do with it. Is it really in the trash? Or has the control module given up its life?

Dishwasher does not drain water

When the machine does not drain water, but you can hear the engine humming, this may indicate that the pump is blocked by small pieces of food passing through the filter cylinder. In this case, pumping out water will be impossible, and this will lead to the program stopping.

To unlock the pump, follow these steps:

On some models, the pump cover is removed using a hex screwdriver (asterisk), and after cleaning, everything is reassembled in the same way.

Another reason for the breakdown may be a burnt-out motor winding. The electric motor windings are checked using a multimeter for short circuits or breaks, after first disconnecting the motor from all wires. If damage is detected, the coil can be rewound by contacting specialists, or the motor can be replaced with a new one.

Types of faults and ways to quickly resolve them

A dishwasher belongs to the class of complex household appliances, since its operation is carried out using automation, the algorithm of which is embedded in special modules. But even such devices have a number of constant errors, which many users have become familiar with. To solve such problems, it is enough to have a minimum number of tools and know where and how to climb.

The dishwasher does not function, there is no indication

The problem is simple, but can have several causes. The most common is a lack of voltage in the outlet (power has been cut off in the entire house). If this is the case, then all that remains is to wait. But if there is the required potential difference in the outlet (within 210-230 V), then it is necessary to disassemble the dishwasher and look for the problem.

Most dishwasher models are equipped with a distribution box - the place where the power cable comes. It is from here that electricity is supplied to all power units of the household appliance. Using a Phillips screwdriver, you need to remove the cover and measure (using a multimeter) whether voltage comes to the box.

If there is no potential difference, you should “ring” the wire. For this, a multimeter is also used, which is switched to the appropriate mode. The cable must be disconnected from the network; the probes must touch one and the other end of the wire. If the conductor is intact, the multimeter will emit a corresponding sound signal.

If the cable is intact and all its conductors ring well, then you can try to find a fault further in the electrical circuit of the dishwasher. Doing this without a circuit diagram for the device is quite problematic. It is also necessary to have basic electrical engineering skills, since reading circuit diagrams requires relevant knowledge.

There is no water supply to the dishwasher

A common problem that has several explanations:

• The water supply tap is closed. Many users forget about this feature of operating a household appliance and may even call specialists without thinking to immediately look at the position of the tap.
• The filter element has become unusable or simply clogged. The filter, especially with process water currently used, has a short service life and must be cleaned frequently (eg from Beko). You can wash the mesh under a strong stream of water; there is no need to use special cleaning products at a high price.
• The water supply valve is not working. A problem that requires partial disassembly of the dishwasher. To get to the valve, you must detach the bottom panel of the device, where it will be located next to the filter element. The valve consists of several inductance coils, which must be “ringed” using a multimeter. The coil leads are disconnected and probes are applied to them. An audible signal indicates an interturn short circuit. The reason for the absence of any resistance is an open circuit. Both the first and second reasons require valve replacement.

When purchasing a valve or filter, you should choose exactly the same part. This is due to the fact that different manufacturers of household appliances make unique parts and parts of one model may not fit another.

Nothing happens after turning on the machine and supplying water

Here you need to trust your hearing. There are two reasons for the malfunction - the electric motor or pump is not functioning. If the engine produces a uniform and constant hum, then there is a possibility of a wedge between the stator and the rotor. You should disassemble the dishwasher and look for the problem.

There is also a possibility of pump blockage. To unlock it, special videos with the exact sequence of actions are provided online.

If the process of unlocking the pump is quite simple, then diagnosing the electric motor requires knowledge in electrical engineering and the presence of a multimeter. The first step is to “ring” the stator windings (the stationary part of the engine) for the presence of an interturn short circuit. The motor leads should be disconnected and moved apart. It is necessary to fix the probes on the terminals. If two windings ring with each other, this means an interturn short circuit and the electric motor will not work.

The rotor (the moving part of the electric motor) may short-circuit or the winding may break. A break can occur in both the rotor and stator. If all of the above malfunctions are detected, the electric motor should be replaced. In order to save money, the damaged part of the engine can be given to a technician who can wind a new winding. The cost of this service is much less than buying a new mechanism.

No normal water drainage

The first thing you should do is look at the condition of the sewer system (how long ago it was repaired); a common reason for the lack of drainage is a clogged drain. To normalize the operation of the dishwasher, it should be thoroughly cleaned. It is best to use a special brush-brush on a long metal cable for this.

Another cause of malfunction is the drain pump. Its clogging occurs as often as the filter element. Therefore, to clean the drain pump, it must be removed and disassembled. Small and large particles of debris are removed using running water under low pressure.

The pump is also an electric motor. What malfunctions may occur with this mechanism and how to diagnose it are described above. If any of the windings are burned out or the wire is broken, the pump should be replaced with a new one.

Violation of the integrity of sealing joints

To put it more simply, the rubber gasket burst. This often happens with the main o-ring located on the inside of the door. It is quite simple to determine a violation of its integrity - the damage is clearly visible even with the naked eye. The door seal should be replaced as soon as possible, otherwise there will be constant water under the dishwasher.

It is more difficult to deal with such a problem as liquid leaking from the bottom of the dishwasher. Then it is necessary to dismantle the bottom cover of the device and conduct a visual inspection of the sealing connections of the pump, the pipes installed on the water supply hoses, as well as the tightness of the drainage system. If a crack or abrasion appears, the damaged seal should be replaced. For greater convenience, you can purchase a repair kit for a specific part.

Increased noise during operation

The reasons may lie in two elements: the engine or the pump, or rather the bearings installed in them. When the bearing leaves the bearing housing, it begins to emit a characteristic whistling sound, and loud impacts can be heard. A press may be required to replace the bearings, so it is best to take the damaged element to a workshop.

Also, increased noise during operation of the dishwasher is caused by a damaged pump impeller or the presence of glass shards or metal shavings in the system. Identifying such debris is problematic, since it is too small in size. To clean internal surfaces, compressed air or a simple household brush is usually used.

PMM error codes on BIT100 and DIWA boards

The listed control modules are installed on dishwasher models Indesit D 41/42, DC 27, DI 45/450/460, IDE 100/1000/1005/44/45, IDL 40/410/411/42/420, IDL 557, IDL 70/7021/710.

In general, the display of error codes by LEDs on Indesit PPM models with BIT100 and DIWA control modules repeats the indication on models with DEA ​​601/602/700 boards with two exceptions:

What to do when faced with a code?

Don't underestimate the Indesit dishwasher. She's not that bad. In a number of different cases, the error code can be eliminated even without disassembling the “home assistant”. Experienced technicians advise rebooting the machine up to 3 times. After which, if the code returns, it is necessary to disassemble the equipment and diagnose it, focusing on deciphering the error codes. How to reboot?

• You need to press the on/off button and hold it a little and release it.
• Next, after 10 seconds, you need to turn off the power to the equipment by unplugging the power cord from the outlet.

It is not recommended to abruptly turn off the power to the dishwasher, especially without turning it off with the button.

If the error code no longer returns, it means we continue to use the machine as before. Well, if the code is returned, you need to repeat the reboot twice more. After which there is no point in rebooting, you need to search for the task.

Decoding and recommendations

Without further delay, let’s begin with the breakdown of error codes. At first we will name the code for Indesit machines with a screen, and then for “Indesit machines” without a monitor.

AL01, on machines with 4 programs - 1 LED, on machines with 6 programs - 3 LEDs. The general decoding indicates that the sensor monitoring water leaks is triggered. Maybe there really was a leak due to depressurization of the washing chamber, tank, pipes, or maybe the sensor worked without a reason, it happens. What to do? You need to seep through the side wall into the pan and find out exactly whether there is water. If there is no water, then you need to check the sensor; it may require replacement. If there is water, it must be drained and the leak removed.

AL02, on machines with 4 programs - 2 lights, on machines with 6 modes - 4. This error can be seen when the system detects a lack of water in the tank. In this case, there may be two culprits: the intake valve and the control board. A technician can test the control board, but you can check the inlet valve yourself with a multimeter. If it turns out that the valve is broken, it needs to be replaced.

AL03, on equipment with 4 modes - 1.2 bulbs, with 6 modes - 3.4. The machine needs to drain the waste water, but it cannot do it. A more possible reason is a clogged or insufficient pump. But the connection between the pump and the control board is likely to be broken. Problems with firmware or even physical damage to the control element are also entirely possible. It is necessary to check the pump and drain hose for blockages. Test the pump with a multimeter and replace as necessary.

AL04, on a dishwasher with 4 modes - 3 LEDs, on appliances with 6 modes - 5. The “four” tells us about dilemmas with the thermistor. It is necessary to check this part and its wiring. If the temperature sensor is broken, we change it; if the problem is in the wiring, we change it.

AL05, on a machine with 4 modes - 1.3 LEDs, on equipment with 6 programs - 3.5. A very nasty malfunction, indicating a lack of circulation pump or water level sensor. First, we check with a multimeter and blow through the pressure switch, then the circulation pump. If the pressure switch does not work, you can change it without any problems, but you may not be able to cope with the circulation pump. If anything happens, call a professional!

To remove the circulation pump you will need to completely remove the tray of the Indesit dishwasher. For a newbie, this action is almost difficult to achieve.

AL06, on machines with 4 programs - 2 and 3 LEDs, on a dishwasher with 6 programs - 4 and 5. The operation of the inlet valve does not meet these requirements. The problem may be due to a break in the power supply, shorted contacts, or incorrect operation of the control board. First we check the wires and contacts. Burnt contacts and broken wires should be replaced. If you find problems with the electronics, call a specialist.

AL08, on a dishwasher with 4 modes - 4 LEDs, on a machine with 6 programs - 6. Indicates that the thermistor of the Indesit dishwasher has failed. The part should be carefully checked with an ohmmeter and may be replaced.

AL09, on 4 and 6-mode machines - 1-4 LEDs. Indicates difficulties with the firmware of the control module. It is necessary to entrust this breakdown to a specialist, who will check the firmware and, if necessary, reset it or reinstall it altogether.

AL10 (F10), on 4-mode machines 2-4 lights flash, on 6-mode machines - 4-6. And this code indicates problems with heating water in the system. Perhaps the Tubular Heater, its wiring or the bus on the control board, which is responsible for the Tubular Heater, has failed. You will need to replace the Tubular Heater, wiring or control board bus. The 1st and 2nd ones can be removed with your own hands; a specialist will deal with the tire. More detailed information on repairing Tubular Heater can be found in the article The water in the dishwasher is not heating.

AL99, on machines without a monitor this error is not recognized. This error indicates a malfunction of the control unit, a broken power cord, or a lack of socket or power supply. Our task is to check the outlet, take measurements in the electrical network and make sure that everything is fine with the power supply to the machine. It is necessary to check the electrical module and replace it if it has multiple physical damages.

So, how to fix it, and most importantly, how to find the cause of the Indesit dishwasher error. First, you need to figure out how to decipher a certain error and how it will work out for you, you can roll up your sleeves and start looking for the flaw. Fortune!

What to do if an error code appears on the screen?

The Indesit dishwasher is considered a successful household appliance. Certain error codes can be eliminated with your own hands without disassembling the unit. Experts advise restarting the machine three times. If the code returns again, you will have to disassemble the dishwasher and perform diagnostics using the decoding of the code meanings. How to reset the dishwasher:

If the error code does not appear on the display screen, the dishwasher can be used as usual. Otherwise, the reboot should be repeated a couple more times. The worst case scenario is that the error persists and the unit has to be disassembled.

No water heating

This fact can be attributed to the main and most common malfunctions of dishwashers. The water may not heat up for the following reasons:

The first fault is easily determined using a resistance tester. If a break is detected, the heating element is purchased and replaced with a new one. If you suspect that the problem may be caused by the second and third malfunctions, you need to disassemble the PMM, and this cannot be done without the help of a specialist. For example, to check the timer, you need to know the algorithm for turning on the contacts for heating the heating element.

Dishwasher does not wash dishes well

The water supply blades can also become contaminated with food debris, which has a bad effect on the operation of the machine. You can disconnect the upper blade by simply unscrewing it, and the lower blade by easily pulling it up.

Check the holes through which the water flows and clean them (if necessary) using a regular toothpick. After cleaning, the blades must be put back in place.

The most common causes of dishwasher malfunction were considered. Of course, it is impossible to describe all the reasons, but by following this algorithm, you can quickly determine the location of the breakdown and, if it is within your power, begin repairing the unit with your own hands.

Door seal allows water to pass through

Indesit machines begin to leak due to the rubber seal wearing out. This is one of the few elements that can be dismantled and replaced on your own without the involvement of specialists. It is enough to open the sash, disconnect the part around the perimeter, take a new one, insert it into the grooves, and then remove the excess using a knife or other cutting device.

After replacement, it is important to check whether the repair was carried out correctly. To do this, the dishwasher starts in test mode. In the absence of leaks, all manipulations were carried out without error.
