Bosch dishwasher SMS46iW08G/51 — E15 sometimes

[asp11]

Cx says that it stops at random times during the washes but mainly towards the end – flashing E15

I found no leaks and I ran a 30mins cycle with no errors…. I did however find the drain hose jammed right down the standpipe (gurgled when I lifted it) and it had the big rubber end that some makes do, so I cut it off, repositioned the hose and left it to test further with the cx

A week later it’s still doing the same thing…. I’m thinking pcb because its so random and it works ok sometimes….. any other ideas please?

I had something similar but in my case it was a water leak that I couldn’t locate as it happens after two cycles. Turns out that it was the sump that got warped and caused the seepage from the tank.

Leaks can be hard to find on these. In the past I have had to put little bits of paper towel around the outside of the sump, the back and underneath the water matrix.
most of the time it either needs a new sump seal or the tub leakage repair kit depending what tub type it has.
Is the whole tub stainless steel?
or is the bottom plastic?
