Electrolux ESL6370R0 Dishwasher. I don’t have any error codes and the machine functions as it should, escept that it doesn’t heat up. I’ve replaced the heating element and the thermostat with no joy. Are there any other sensors or any other ideas out there…?
Thanks
I have a EW24ID80QS dishwasher. I purchased new a month ago. It has never dried or heated water. The control panel was replaced that did not help. Technician checked the heater and has the correct resistance but will not draw any amperage the wiring is good as well. Any suggestions?
Electrolux dishwasher E24ID74QPS0A flashes on and off the control touch pads on the left side of the control panel. And it does this intermittently. Seems to be working otherwise.
I have this same problem the owners manual does not address the issue in the book. Any input? All three delay lights and intermittently two beeps on the air dry light.
Rawan,
Is the Electrolux dishwasher error code you are getting showing E30 or just 30?
Electrolux dishwasher error code E30 is NOT in the database.
In the meantime simply attempt to reset your Electrolux dishwasher.
This can be done by unplugging it.
-Unplug the dishwasher or flip OFF the breaker.
-Wait 15 minutes and then apply power back to the dishwasher and turn it ON.
-Run a test wash to see if the error code is cleared.
If resetting the dishwasher by disconnecting power does not fix and clear the error code, there could be other issues.
If you are getting JUST the 30 error code, here is what is going on:
Electrolux Dishwasher Error Code 30 means you have a leak.
Water has gone in and down into the base.
This then triggers the antiflood switch and shows the 30 error code.
Electrolux Dishwasher 30 error code means the drain pump is running constantly – If so unplug the dishwasher.
-Tip the dishwasher backwards to get the water out of the base.
-Once the water is emptied the antiflood switch will deactivate and reset.
Advise us of any new error code(s) that may display or if it still displays error code E30?
This information can help us to better research the issue and decide if another route of troubleshooting is needed.

I have an Electrolux dishwasher Model Number ESF5511LOX.
I am getting the Error code E30.
What can I do?
I have an Electrolux dishwasher Model EDW7505HPS0A. Error code 11… drain valve.
I replaced the drain valve with a new one, but when testing, the same error code showed up again.
Usually when starting the dishwasher, you can hear it filling up.
Now it is silent until 15 seconds pass and the beeping error code 11 starts.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
