How to fix E24 on Thermador Dishwasher

The E24 error code on a Thermador dishwasher typically indicates a drainage issue. This can be caused by several problems, including blockages in the filter or drain hose, a problem with the pump, or even issues with the dishwasher’s software.

Steps to fix E24 Error

Here are some steps you can take to try and fix this error:

  • Check the Filter: Remove and clean the dishwasher’s filter. Trapped food particles or debris can often cause drainage problems.

  • Inspect the Drain Hose: Ensure the drain hose is not kinked or blocked. You should also check where it connects to the garbage disposal or sink drain for clogs.

  • Check for Blockages in the Pump: Sometimes, glass or other debris can block the pump. You will likely need to remove the dishwasher’s bottom panel to access the pump.

  • Reset the Dishwasher: Sometimes, simply resetting the dishwasher can clear the error code. You can try turning off the power to the dishwasher at the circuit breaker, wait a few minutes, and then turn it back on.

  • Run a Vinegar Cycle: If you can get the dishwasher to run, try running it empty with a cup of white vinegar placed on the top rack. This can help clean out any debris that might be causing issues with the sensors.

  • Inspect the Air Gap: If your dishwasher is connected through an air gap, make sure it is not clogged. The air gap is a small cylindrical fixture on the top of your sink.

When You Should Call a Pro for the E24 Error

If you’ve tried these steps and the E24 error persists, it might be time to call in a professional. There could be a more serious issue with your dishwasher that requires specialized tools or replacement parts.

  • If the E24 won’t go away: You’ve cleaned everything and reset the dishwasher, but the error keeps popping up. It’s time to call in a pro.
  • When it’s more than a clog: Maybe you found something blocking the pump, but you’re not sure how to get it out safely. A professional can help without causing more damage.
  • If you’ve never tackled dishwasher issues before: It’s okay if you’re not comfortable diving into appliance repairs. Getting help from someone who knows what they’re doing can save you time and avoid more problems.
  • Your dishwasher starts doing other weird things: If it’s not just the E24 error but your dishwasher is acting up in other ways (like not starting at all), a technician can figure out what’s wrong.
