Hoover Slimline dishwasher error codes
The characteristic feature of the Hoover dishwashers that belong to the Slimline range is their small capacity (typically it is 10 place settings). The dishwashers vary not only from the point of view of features and options, but also from the point of view of design. There are two colors available in the current lineup: black and white.
| Code | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| E1 | Water fill time out The dishwasher has failed to fill with water in a reasonable time. | Check water supply Check water inlet valve Check wiring to water inlet valve Check connections to water inlet valve |
| E2 | Water drain time out The dishwasher has failed to drain the water in a reasonable time. | Check water drain or waste hose Check plumbing at drain point Check water drain pump Check wiring to water drain pump Check connections to water drain pump |
| E3 | Water heating time out or fault The dishwasher has failed to heat with water in a reasonable time or has failed to detect the water heating element. | Check water heating element wiring Check water heating element Check wiring to main control module |
| E4 | Anti flood device tripped The dishwasher has detected a water leak through the anti flood device being activated. | Check base of the dishwasher for any leaks Check resolve any leaking components Check wiring to anti flood device |
| E6 | NTC open circuit detected The dishwasher has detected an open circuit error with the temperature sensor or NTC. | Check wiring to temperature sensor Check temperature sensor Check wiring control module |
| E7 | NTC shorted error The dishwasher has detected an short circuit error with the temperature sensor or NTC. |
Hoover Nextra dishwasher error codes
Nextra dishwashers are included in the Hoover Slimline series. Models that belong to the current range have comparatively small capacity (10 place settings). They have 6 programs and 4 temperatures to choose from, and a rapid wash option. There can be an Eco Plus mode, a counter balanced safety door, and a third basket present depending on the model.
| Code | Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| E2 | Water fill time out The dishwasher has failed to fill with water in a reasonable time. | Check water supply Check water inlet valve Check wiring to water inlet valve Check connections to water inlet valve |
| E3 | Water drain time out The dishwasher has failed to drain the water in a reasonable time. | Check water drain or waste hose Check plumbing at drain point Check water drain pump Check wiring to water drain pump Check connections to water drain pump |
| E4 | Anti flood device tripped The dishwasher has detected a water leak through the anti flood device being activated. | Check base of the dishwasher for any leaks Check resolve any leaking components Check wiring to anti flood device |
| E5 | NTC fault detected The dishwasher has detected and error with the temperature sensor or NTC, this can be cause by a short as well as an open NTC detection. | Check wiring to temperature sensor Check temperature sensor Check wiring control module |
| E7 | Main circulation pump fault detected The dishwasher control module has detected a failure with the tachometric dynamo on the main motor or recirculation pump as Candy call it. To us, it's the motor tacho that has an error. | Check wiring to motor Check motor tacho is in place and undamaged Check wiring to control module |
| E8 | Water heating time out or fault The dishwasher has failed to heat with water in a reasonable time or has failed to detect the water heating element. | Check water heating element wiring Check water heating element Check wiring to main control module |
| E9 | Turbidity sensor failure The dishwasher detected a problem with the turbidity sensor which is the infrared sensor that detects the level of detergent in the water by reading the level of "turbidity" in the sump. Note that this fault code will only appear on models that have this feature fitted. | Check turbidity sensor wiring Check turbidity sensor itself Check wiring to control module |
| Ee | Water heating element safety switch open circuit | Check water heating element Check water heating element wiring Check wiring and connectors to main control module |
| Eh | Water heating element safety switch short circuit | |
| Ei | Water heating element failure The dishwasher has failed to detect the water heating element or detects a short circuit on the heater. |
