Bosch dishwasher error codes, decoded and repaired
Bosch and Siemens dishwashers share the same control platform, so a code points at a specific component rather than a guess. We read it, run the matching test and repair what it identifies in one visit.

Where we work
Bosch, Neff and Siemens dishwashers are among the most common integrated units we see across London, Kent and Surrey, and we carry the pumps, seals and sensors these codes usually identify.
What the common codes point to
E15
Water in the base tray — the leak sensor has stopped the cycle
E17
Not filling — inlet valve, tap or water supply
E22
Filter or drain path blocked
E24
Not draining — drain pump or hose
E25
Drain pump fault
E01 / E02
Heating circuit or temperature sensor
Letter pairs vary slightly between series; the test we run against the code is the same.
What we test against the code
- Drain the base tray and trace what let the water in, instead of just clearing E15
- Continuity and current draw measured on the drain pump and heating element
- Inlet valve, tap and filter checked on codes that point at filling
- Temperature sensor readings compared with what the control board expects
- Glass, food waste and scale cleared from the sump before anything is refitted
Before you book
- 1
Write the exact code down
Note the code and when it appears — at fill, mid-wash or at the drain. That timing narrows the fault before we arrive.
- 2
Reset once, not five times
Switch off at the wall for five minutes and restart. If the same code returns straight away it is a real fault, not a glitch.
- 3
Check the basics
Tap fully open, filter clean, drain hose not kinked behind the unit. If the code comes back after that, it needs an engineer.
Questions we get asked
Can you repair it on the same visit as the diagnosis?
In most cases yes. We carry common drain pumps, seals, sensors and inlet valves for Bosch and Siemens machines.
Does a Bosch code mean an expensive repair?
Usually not. Drain and filter codes are often a blockage or a pump, and a tripped base tray is frequently a hose or door seal. Any part is quoted before it is fitted.
Is an integrated Bosch machine harder to work on?
It takes longer to slide the unit out of the cabinet run, but that does not change the fixed call-out charge.
