Fisher & Paykel DishDrawer E1 Error Code

The guide’s definition

Three words cover it: flood detected. That is the entire entry for E1 in the DD24, DD60, DD36 and DD90 DishDrawer guide, and it reads the same whether the machine is a Classic, a Designer or an Integrated version.

First minute, step by step

1. Stop the constant beeping using the control provided.
2. Record the code. Classic models show it on the display; on Designer and Integrated models you read the lit indicators on the wash program panel against the table in the guide.
3. Power the dishwasher down, count a few seconds, and power it up again, the way the guide’s flowchart shows, to see if the code disappears.

When the code does not clear

Here the guide is firm. Cut the electrical supply (pull the plug, or flip the circuit breaker off), close the water supply as well, and then reach out to Customer Care, quoting the fault code. Power goes first because water on the floor and live equipment are a bad pairing.

Leak entries are a separate matter

A leak entry appears elsewhere in the same troubleshooting table. It lists a drain hose that has slipped off the waste pipe and an inlet hose that is not connected properly, each fixed by reconnecting it. For any other leak the guide says to turn off water and power and contact Customer Care or a service centre. Those items are filed under leaks in general and not under E1, so treat them as things to look at, nothing more.

Neighbouring codes

• E2 is the motor fault, listed right beside E1 in the table.
• A3 fits better if the actual problem is water that will not drain, not water on the floor.
