Error Code: E14 Difficulty: Hard
Problem: Flow meter failure or an issue with water flowing into the dishwasher.
How to Fix E14 Error (Step-by-Step)
- Disconnect the dishwasher from its power source at the circuit breaker and shut off the water supply line, which is typically under the sink.
- Carefully slide the dishwasher out from under the counter. You may need to remove mounting screws holding it to the countertop or adjacent cabinets.
- Remove the left-side access panel of the dishwasher. This usually involves removing a few Torx T20 screws from the front and back of the panel.
- Locate the flow meter, which is part of the water inlet assembly on the side of the dishwasher. It will have a small electrical connector attached.
- Disconnect the electrical connector from the old flow meter. Use a small flathead screwdriver to gently pry the plastic clips holding the meter in place and lift it out.
- Install the new flow meter by snapping it into place, ensuring the clips engage securely. Reconnect the electrical connector to the new part.
- Re-install the side panel, slide the dishwasher back into place, and secure it. Reconnect the power and water supply, then run a test cycle to ensure the error is cleared.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
