How to Fix I52 Error (Step-by-Step)

  1. Start by ensuring the dishwasher is completely disconnected from both power and water sources.
  2. Gently pull the dishwasher out from its bay and tilt it to access the underside components.
  3. Identify the wash pump motor. It will be connected to the sump and have several hoses and wires attached.
  4. Carefully disconnect all electrical and hose connections from the motor. Note their positions for reassembly.
  5. Unfasten the motor from its mounting points and remove it from the dishwasher.
  6. Mount the new wash pump motor, and re-establish all the hose and electrical connections.
  7. Carefully place the dishwasher back, turn on the utilities, and perform a test run.
  8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

What to Check Next on This Electrolux Dishwasher

Focused repair path: dishwasher fill, drain, wash, heat, latch, sensor, and control checks. Do not treat the fault as reset-only if it keeps returning; use the failed function to choose the next test.

  1. Disconnect power before opening panels, then confirm whether the Electrolux dishwasher repeats the same code after a clean reset.
  2. Match the symptom to the part of the cycle or function that fails: fill, drain, heat, cool, spin, latch, ignite, fan, sensor, or control response.
  3. Inspect simple causes first: airflow, water supply, drain path, door closure, filter, venting, wiring connectors, and visible damage.
  4. Use meter testing or service diagnostics before replacing electronic controls, because wiring, switches, sensors, and loads can mimic board failure.
  5. Use the complete Electrolux dishwasher model number from the appliance tag before ordering any model-specific part.

Check, inspect, clean, test, measure, remove, reconnect, clear, and replace parts only when the symptom supports that path. If these checks point toward a part, verify the complete Electrolux model number from the appliance tag before ordering.
