What the E24 code usually means
The dishwasher cannot drain correctly.
Model check: The same display code can have different meanings or procedures across product generations. Record the full model number before replacing parts or using a model-specific reset sequence.
What to check first
- Clean filters, inspect the drain hose, and ensure the sink/disposal connection is not blocked.
- Inspect only user-accessible areas described in the owner manual.
- After correcting an obvious external issue, restart the appliance once and see whether the code returns.
- If the code returns immediately or the appliance shows heat, smoke, arcing, gas odour, or active leaking, stop using it and arrange service.

When to call a technician
Disconnect power before reaching into pump or wiring areas, and shut off water when investigating leaks.
Professional service is also appropriate when the error returns after basic checks, when access requires removing fixed panels, or when the manufacturer documentation calls for electrical measurements or component replacement.
