ISB Electrical attended a Bosch dishwasher repair job in Runaway Bay where the customer reported an E24 error and water remaining inside the dishwasher after the cycle.
On Bosch dishwashers, E24 is usually linked to drainage flow problems. The dishwasher may still start a cycle, but when it reaches the drain stage it can stop, beep, show E24 and leave water in the base of the machine.
The customer noticed that the dishwasher was not emptying properly. Dishes were still wet, water was sitting near the filter area and the machine would not finish the program correctly.
We inspected the Bosch dishwasher drain system, including the filter assembly, sump area, drain pump impeller, non-return valve, drain hose and sink spigot connection.
In many Runaway Bay apartment and townhouse kitchens, dishwasher drainage faults can also be caused by partially blocked sink connections or incorrectly installed drain hoses after kitchen plumbing work.
The drain path was restricted and water could not leave the dishwasher correctly. The pump area and drainage line required cleaning and testing to confirm proper water flow.
We cleared the drain restriction, cleaned the filter and sump area, checked the pump operation and tested the dishwasher through a drain cycle. After repair, the Bosch dishwasher drained correctly and the E24 error did not return during testing.
If the dishwasher keeps trying to drain against a blockage, the pump can become noisy, overheat or fail. Standing water can also cause unpleasant smells and poor washing results.
If your Bosch dishwasher is showing E24 in Runaway Bay or nearby Gold Coast suburbs, ISB Electrical can diagnose the issue and provide a practical repair solution.
