Every Whirlpool dishwashers fault code we have documented, with what it means. Pick yours to see causes, checks and the parts involved.
● 7 codes documented
Whirlpool uses 7 fault codes on its dishwashers, shown on the display when the machine stops — among them AF, F01, F2 E0, F3 E0, F5 E3. Each one points to a specific part: on this page you find them all, with what they mean.
How to read the code on the display
On most Whirlpool appliances the code appears on the display when the cycle stops, or is spelled out by a sequence of blinking lights.
Write the code down before switching off: many machines clear it when unplugged, and without the code the fault has to be found from scratch.
