What does the error E09 mean in the Siemens dishwasher, what should I do to get rid of it? The decryption of this code is simple - a TEN error. To fix the problem, read below.
Breakdown reasons
In addition to wide functionality, Siemens dishwashers are equipped with a self-diagnosis system. As soon as a malfunction occurs in the equipment, a fault code is immediately displayed on the display. By calculating the code value, you can quickly find the cause of the breakdown.
Most often, the E9 code appears in dishwashers with a flow heater, which is built into the circulation pump. Why can the system show an error? Because the wiring broke or the heater itself burned out. What could have happened:
- Water got through the worn seal on the heater; a short circuit occurred.
- Clogging in the drain filter provoked a slow outflow of water, which caused overheating and combustion of the element.
- Scum. Wrong choice of salt or its absence in the ion exchanger led to the formation of scale and overheating.
How to fix the situation? Heater replacement will help.
Stages of repair work on the replacement of heating elements
Before proceeding with the repair, try resetting the E09 code: the machine may be giving an error as a result of a system failure.
Disconnect the PMM from the network for 10-15 minutes. Then turn it on again and look at the scoreboard. Are the icons gone? If the display lights again, then read on.
What you need to replace:
- screwdriver;
- multimeter;
- new heater.
Since the heater is part of the circulation unit, you have to remove it. Proceed sequentially:
- Disconnect the machine from communications and the mains.
- Remove the front part (if the PMM is built-in type).
- Remove the screws and remove the bottom panel under the door.
- Remove the thermal insulation and unscrew the pan bolts.
- Remove the basket baskets from the hopper.
- Remove the lower rocker arm, pull out the drain filter - behind it is the pump cover. Remove the screws that secure it.
- Turn the Siemens dishwasher onto the back.
- Disconnect the pump from the circulation pump by turning it counterclockwise.
- Release the unit from the wires and remove from the mounts.
- Loosen the clamp holding the heater, disconnect its wiring.
- Install a new item.
Important! Use only original spare parts for replacement.
Assemble the machine in reverse order. We recommend that you take care of the Siemens dishwasher correctly in order to avoid problems with the heater and other details.
