Bosch Dishwasher E24 code: Not draining

The dishwasher isn't draining properly, often because the drain path is blocked. Water may be left standing in the bottom.

Most common causes

  1. Kinked or blocked drain hose
  2. Clogged filter
  3. Loose drain pump cover
  4. Knockout plug still in place on a newly installed garbage disposal

What you can safely check yourself

  1. Check the drain hose under the sink for kinks.
  2. Clean the filter at the bottom of the tub.
  3. Remove the filter and make sure the pump cover under it is seated firmly.
  4. If the disposal is new, make sure its knockout plug was removed.

Unplug the appliance before moving or cleaning anything. Do not open panels, touch gas connections or bypass safety switches.
