Bosch Dishwasher Error Code E01: How to Fix It

The Logic Verdict

My Take: I’ve watched the video and it’s a quick fix. The author shows how to access the drain pump impeller by removing a small white cover inside the sump. Often, debris gets stuck there. I’d recommend checking this before buying any parts.

What It Means

The E01 code indicates an issue with the power module or a door latch failure preventing the cycle from starting correctly. However, in the context of the video, it seems to be related to the pump or drainage.

Common Causes

1. Debris in Drain Pump
2. Broken Door Latch
3. Power Module Failure

Step-by-Step Fix

1. Safety First: Unplug the appliance before performing any inspection.
2. Remove Filter: Unscrew and remove the filter from the bottom of the dishwasher.
3. Access Pump Cover: Look for a white plastic cover in the sump area. It has a small tab or “finger” sticking up.
4. Remove Cover: Pop the white cover off to expose the drain pump impeller.
5. Clear Debris: Check for and remove any debris blocking the impeller.
6. Test: The video suggests running the dishwasher briefly to flush it out, then reassembling.
7. Reassemble: Snap the cover back in place and reinstall the filter (aligning the arrows).
