How to Fix 30 Error (Step-by-Step)

  1. Disconnect the dishwasher from power at the circuit breaker immediately to prevent electrical hazards.
  2. Use towels to absorb any visible water inside the dishwasher tub and on the floor around it.
  3. The anti-flood system is located in a pan at the very bottom of the dishwasher. You will need to pull the dishwasher out from under the counter to access this.
  4. Once accessed, soak up all the water in the base pan. This will allow the float switch to reset.
  5. While the dishwasher is out, carefully inspect all internal hoses, the pump, and the sump assembly for signs of cracks or loose connections that could be the source of the leak.
  6. Also, check the door gasket for any damage or wear and ensure the spray arms are not cracked, as this can misdirect water and cause leaks.
  7. After drying the base pan and checking for leaks, you can restore power and attempt to run a cycle while monitoring for new water accumulation.
  8. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
