ADP 8224 Dishwasher

Re: ADP 8224 Dishwasher

Well, we have had the top off to look for loose connections (none apparant), and the side off the take a look at the side fill chamber (not blocked as far as we could see). The filter thingy (technical term) just inside the machine where the water comes in was a bit gunky, but not too bad. It managed a whole cycle after that, but E2 still came up at the end. Anyone got any more ideas?

I too have been getting this problem, E2. When the programme starts water fills up in the bottom of the machine and then bleeps with this error (within 3-4 minutes). I have removed the water, reset the machine and started again with the same outcome of error code E2.

The removal of the water has worked a couple of times before but no such luck now.

Any suggestions?

Hi Jo Hi Kris,

Sorry if the help seems a little slow at the moment it’s just that most of the trade members have been at a meeting this weekend.
As you will appreciate we have to be very careful not to get anyone hurt with any advice given out by the trade members of this site. This is because we cannot be sure of the technical ability of members of the public in the open forums.
From the symptoms you have given I would strongley suggest that you contact your nearest hygena specialist as I feel that the problems you have encountered can only be resolved by disassembling the appliance.
When any of the trade members begin or complete a repair they have to carry out test’s on the appliance for electrical saftey, which can only be achieved with expensive test equipment and someone trained in thier correct use. I do not mean to give any offence to either of you, but I do feel it would be far safer in this particular instance to call in an expert as you have already carried out all the standard checks from your appliance handbook.

Regards Del

Re: ADP 8224 Dishwasher

hello, as Del says we have been away and the responses should now start.

It’s my view that E2 is a common fault and easily curable by an experienced engineer. Whatever the charge (£50.00 to £65.00 for labour ) you will benefit by having the correct repair at a reasonabble charge.E2 on early appliances was extremely difficult to cure because of the design of the side filling chamber, however it has been improved and will usually be cured by clearing the waterway from the side chamber to the sump. A job for someone who knows what they are doing and not a DIY feat.

I wont tell you how to do it, resetting the electronics is possible but only after the fault is cured.

Re: ADP 8224 Dishwasher

I was getting error code E2, for what I have no idea. The machine would just not complete its cycle. However, the manual told me that code E2 was not used on my particular appliance. Confused? Anyway, I discovered that these machines do not like being opened mid cycle. (My old machine was subjected to this for 11 years, and never complained, it is still working now!) So I did the same to this inherited ADP 8224. Someone suggested to me that I could reset something or other by switching off the machine, then switching back on again whilst holding down the programme button. This seemed to banish the gremlins. Don’t even know how it worked but it did!

Ps

Have a look at the thread entitled ADP 8224 Reset Codes, it might make more sense than my waffle above!

Re: ADP 8224 Dishwasher

hi,

when you open and then close the door on this model during use you will cause a depression on the surface of the water within the appliance. The side filling chamber water level will fluctuate and increasingly so if pipes are restricted by a build up of sludge, it takes very little variation to activate the anti flood and stop your appliance. The anti flood your handbook refers to is an external anti flood that we would call an aquastop, and whilst this is not fitted to your model an internal anti flood is that is operated by pressure from the side chamber.

Call an experienced engineer to fix it for you.

Hi to everybody

Please see my reply on here in response to message Diplomat integrated dishwasher ADP8132

The solution I give works the same for this model too 90 percent of the time.
