Whirlpool Dishwasher F4E2 Error Code

VERIFIED

Error code F4E2
Appliance Dishwasher

Whirlpool lists the heating system as the potential cause for F4E2 on built-in dishwashers.

Reset the dishwasher

  1. Leave the machine without electricity for half a minute (30 seconds).
  2. A cord-and-outlet model: take the plug out of the wall, then push it back in.
  3. A hard wired model: flip its breaker in the house panel off, pause, and flip it on.
  4. Look at the display to see whether F4E2 has returned.

Whirlpool compares this to rebooting a computer, which now and then clears a fault.

If F4E2 persists

  • Book service for the heating system.

Compare these

  • F4E3, the heating error code
  • F3E2, which lists a thermistor or OWI sensor
