How to Fix Electrolux Dishwasher Error I69

Error Code: I69 Difficulty: Moderate

Problem: Water temperature too high or temperature sensor malfunction.

How to Fix I69 Error (Step-by-Step)

1. Disconnect Power Supply: For your safety, begin by shutting off the power to the dishwasher at the main circuit breaker.
2. Access the Temperature Sensor: Carefully slide the dishwasher out from under the counter. The temperature sensor (NTC sensor) is located on the bottom of the tub, often inserted into the sump or the heater assembly.
3. Inspect Wiring: Examine the wires and the connection plug to the sensor. Look for any signs of damage, corrosion, or a loose connection. Reseat the connector firmly.
4. Test the Sensor: Disconnect the sensor’s wiring plug. Using a multimeter set to measure resistance (ohms), place the probes on the sensor’s terminals. At room temperature, you should get a reading of approximately 10,000 ohms. If the reading is drastically different, or you have an open or short circuit, the sensor is defective.
5. Replace the Temperature Sensor: If the test fails, replace the sensor (Part 1113163035 or 140000554068). It is usually held in place by a clip or by twisting it into the housing. Ensure the new sensor’s seal is properly seated to prevent leaks.
6. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
7. Check for simple blockages (lint screen, drain path, or filter) and clean anything you find.

Still Not Working?
If the replacement part didn’t fix the issue, you may have a wiring problem or main board failure.
