⚠️ Safety Warning: Appliance repair involves electricity, gas, and moving parts. Always disconnect power before working on any appliance.
Error Code: I5E Difficulty: Hard
Problem: Wash motor error.
How to Fix I5E Error (Step-by-Step)
- Shut off the electricity to the dishwasher at your home’s circuit breaker panel.
- Turn off the hot water supply line, which is usually located under the kitchen sink.
- Gently pull the dishwasher out from under the counter to access the wash motor at the base.
- Visually inspect the wash motor for any obvious signs of damage or blockages in the pump housing.
- Carefully check the electrical connections on the motor, ensuring the wire harness is securely plugged in and shows no signs of damage.
- If the connections are secure and there are no blockages, the motor itself has likely failed.
- Replace the entire wash motor and pump assembly, reconnect the wiring and hoses, and then restore power and water.
- Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
