What should I do if the Siemens dishwasher shows an E25 error on the display? The fault code informs the user about a breakdown in the system – the machine does not drain the water. You can quickly find the cause of the problem by knowing the full meaning of the code.
What does error E25 mean
In the instructions for the dishwasher, the decryption sounds like this: a drain error has occurred. It could be a clogged drain pipe or pump. It is possible that the impeller is blocked, so the drain does not occur.
Read the instructions carefully before using. The cause of blockage is food debris, small bones, toothpicks, napkins, fragments of dishes. These items block the operation of the impeller.
Even if you thoroughly clean your dishes but never clean the drain, grease can build up. As a result, water will not pass through the nozzle, so the system may show error code E25.
How to fix the problem
If this is not a system failure, then you will have to clean it. But first try to reset the error:
- disconnect the PMM plug from the socket;
- wait 10-15 minutes;
- restart.
If the icons light up on the screen again, then it is not a software failure, but a technical problem. How to fix the situation in PMM Siemens, read below:
- Open the chamber door.
- Pull out the lower basket.
- Using a sponge or other improvised means, scoop water out of the pan.
- Unscrew the drain filter. Rinse under water pressure.
- Loosen the screws securing the pump cover.
- Pull the flap towards you and remove.
- Put on protective gloves and clean the impeller of debris.
If these steps did not help and the Siemens system still gives an error, then the drain hose and pipe are checked. How to do it:
- Disconnect equipment from communications and electricity.
- Move to a free space and drain the water (if any).
- Turn the machine over on the back wall and remove the bottom.
- Loosen the clamps and disconnect the drain pipe and hose.
- Clean them under the pressure of water.
If the pump impeller breaks, it can be replaced on site. But if the winding burned out, then you need to completely replace the element. Can’t manage on your own? Then it is better to contact the master.
