The machine tried to empty, took too long about it and stopped, which points at the path the water leaves by rather than at the pump pushing it. On a fully integrated machine this is displayed on the TOP EDGE of the door, which is only visible when the door is open. Most owners have never seen it. ### Where this code actually appears On the control panel, and usually with a sound. Monogram describes their refrigerator codes as flashing green on the display and typically accompanied by a beeping, and the range, microwave and dishwasher tables all describe codes you can read from the front of the appliance. That is the opposite of some makes, where the number is written into a hidden log and never shown — here, if something is wrong, the appliance generally tells you. Photograph what it says before cutting the power, because a reset erases it and the code is most of the diagnosis. ### Which machines this one applies to Monogram fully integrated dishwashers. Monogram says plainly on their own range and oven table that they cannot list every code for every model past and present, so a code missing from their table is not proof that your appliance cannot raise it — and a code in it is not proof that yours can. The model number settles it. ### What to do about it - Clean the air gap if the sink has one. The manufacturer names this first and it is free. - Check the drain hose — reposition or replace it, and make sure it still has its high loop. A hose that has slipped down siphons and holds water in the tub. - Run the disposer to clear it. If the disposer is new, check that the dishwasher knockout plug was removed when it was fitted; left in, it holds water every single cycle. - If it persists after all three, the drain pump is tested rather than assumed. ### Where this goes next The job this usually becomes is [dishwasher drain repair](/services/dishwasher-drain-repair/), and every one of those pages carries a starting figure and the reasons that move it. If it turns out to be nothing — and on this make a real share of these are modes rather than problems — the visit ends there and you pay the diagnostic and nothing else, or call [(305) 614-3572](tel:+13056143572) and describe what the display is doing before booking anything.
