Moved my neff dishwasher and it came up with this error code. Followed your video, sir I owe you a massive thank you. Water had gotten into the tray as described and raised the polystyrene disc. Saved myself a small fortune, and learned new skills. Thank you.
What a star! Best video I've seen all year. So clear I was able to fix my dishwasher! I don't know what caused the leak, but by mopping up the water under the machine to unfloat the disk, the error disappeared and the machine is working again. Everything he showed was exactly what I saw - he could have been in my kitchen! Thank you. First rate.
Thank you! Your video helped me fix my bosch/siemens. Only a couple of tablespoons water in the bottom. Cleaned up and checking for leaks after a couple of washes. SO satisfying to do that with no experience. Especially to see the machine actually looked exactly like yours:) Cheers from Denmark
Thank you. You saved me from buying a new machine. I wiped the tray dry and also tightened the four screws inside the dishwasher (the ones who is holding the pump against the bottom) Be careful as they are only screwed in the plastic.
I wonder how many people this guy has helped fix their own dishwasher? It's got to be thousands at least. Helping to save the planet, one dishwasher at a time!
The combined views of this video and the original one (that I did just because my own dishwasher broke) totals almost 1M. So hopefully that equals a lot of money saved and a lot less going to landfill
Thank you for the excellent directions. Yours was the only one that was very clear about which six screws needed to be taken out to get the cover off. Based on your instructions and watching the dishwasher cycle, I was able to identify and repair the leak.
Godfather of dishwashers!, Great help, works again, Lots of good camera perspectives, details and explanations. Thx a lot from germany!! Maybe will check the other videos, too,.....

Hi! I am very grateful because of the video what you have recorded to us. It helped a lot after our dishwasher show the E15 code. We tried to leave the dishwasher tablets which you can buy in any shops to change bio, sulfate free products but it generated a lot of foam which came out and goes into the bottom of the machine. Now it is working perfectly and we changed back to the original tablets. We are going to save the world in an another way. :) Thanks again! Cheers. PS: have a great coffee. ;-)
Thank you!! I had this problem before, with another washing machine, and I had to clean it many times. But now when you showed me how to remove the plastic cup with the sensor and remove the Styrofoam to properly clean it, it is much better. Thanks again
Great Instructions thank you for the video. Just one point in some dishwashers (Bosch Canada) the styrofoam disc may have a larger center boss on it. Which doesn't show on your video. However people have to remember the flat part of the disc goes down to the reservoir cup. Switch sits on the large boss. It all fits greatly. Great instructions Matey (Not sure if Canadians like to just complicate things) Cheers :-)
Thank you. I removed side water tank and cleaned all the crud outa the little float valve, then got e15, I had spilt water into base . Very good video, washer working like new now👍😁
thank you so much man, I had mice who came in and ate the polystyrene disk, that's why my machine was in security mode all that time. Well filmed and well explained, you saved me a new machine ^^
Thanks, my dishwasher is working again. Two things I'd love to get some clarification on. First, there was water in my salt compartment. Is that a problem? Second, I had an integrated front, so the screws I had to remove weren't the same as the ones you removed. An opportunity for a follow-up video. But thanks to this video I now have a working dishwasher that I fixed myself.
Problem described. Solution demonstrated. Problem solved. Teenage son now thinks he can fix anything (with Dad's help). Thanks from Raleigh, North Carolina, USA!
So, that's great! Presumably, then, water should never enter this bottom part of the dishwasher, correct? I have a new one that is throwing the error code, so investigated as you suggested (actually managed to get a strange wrench I have to remove those two screws without having to remove the front panel), and that eps float is indeed surrounded by water! As it's under warranty, guess I'll have to ask for a repairman to turn up... Thanks a lot for your very clear, concise video!
Our 6 year old Aquastar 6.0 has done this twice so far, first time it dried out and reset after a day but 2nd time..pfft. Thanks so much for this video, trying it tonight! Please pray for me 😄 I am wondering if it's from putting breadboards and tins against the dryer vent.
So does the repair stop it? Or is this something I’ll be doing weekly? This is completely ridiculous to spend so much on such a bad design. Should I buy a better designed machine? Please help me
Of the four videos i've watched in the topic, this one is het best! Except that it doesn't actually provide the solution, which is often to replace/add a silicone ring.
FYI Bosch sells a "repair kit" (actually a "deficient seal design augmentation kit") for about $20.00. The intention is to improve the sealing of the main sump to the bottom pan of the main dishwasher (those 4 screws you see when you look at the bottom from inside the dish area). Naturally you should confirm that this is the actual cause for you, first. Apparently their engineers are confirmed idiots, but instead of taking responsibility and doing a proper recall they just sell a "work-around" to the suckers who bought their dishwashers (like me) and then quietly changed the design on newer units. Anyway, you can buy their kit from a variety of online sources, including this one: www.bosch-home.com/us/store/accessories/12005744 Also, here is a how-to video (in German - just turn on subtitles in English or whatever you need first): th-cam.com/video/OliiWxORUJA/w-d-xo.html
I replaced a burned extracting pump and now I got E15 code; then I found a leakage as you describe here. This video might be a little better than the other in german - th-cam.com/video/jBtkEX0gYY0/w-d-xo.html
I wonder how many people this guy has helped fix their own dishwasher? It's got to be thousands at least. Helping to save the planet, one dishwasher at a time!
I just did this, but I ran into a problem getting the dishwasher out of the kitchen cabinets. I have sheet vinyl flooring that runs part-way into the dishwasher cavity. When I tried to pull the dishwasher out, the back center support “foot” got caught on the edge of the vinyl and trapped the dishwasher. I was very unhappy about this. I lifted up the front lower frame from the floor so I could look underneath the dishwasher. I had someone help tip the washer forward, and I slipped a yard (meter) stick under the washer such that the rear foot rested on the ruler, and the ruler held the vinyl flooring edge down. I was then able to slide the dishwasher all the way out with the rear foot riding on the ruler.
It would have been nice for you to describe an actual problem. In my case, water comes down the rectangular tube that connects the bottom of the dishwasher door and discharges to the reservoir where the styrofoam float sits. The rectangular tube is at the center of the front behind that sharp plate and the sound deadening material at about 6:04 in the video.
Thank you so much for your great video. There was a little water accumulation around the styrofoam disk. I couldn’t figure out how to get the part out and I was afraid I’d break it so I used a towel. I ran an express cycle and hooray it worked. The big problem I had was reassembling the door because the 2 plastic clips fell out so I had no idea where they came from. It took me a long time but I finally figured it out. I hope I can reassemble the door panel without too much trouble 🤞
Thank you for your video on Fault E15. Found exactly what you said, pulled apart and found water where the poly foam level indicator was. Cleaned as you described and reassembled and now running dishwasher to see how it goes. Checked for leaks while I had apart all seemed OK.
Fantastic video @Sawickipedia. I watched with my 13 year old son who was able to correct the flooded sensor area. My Bosch has the integrated door which required the removal of 12 Torx screws. Once removed, we dried under the styrofoam disk with paper towels and reassembled. Unit works perfectly thanks to the advice from the wonderful bearded man in the video! Happy New Year!
Great vid. Thanks from Canada. I just fixed an E 23 a few days ago, so when E15 popped up just now. Ugh. I love Bosch but this is my second one at this house. First one did not last very long, big leak in a faulty inlet control ruined just finished basement ceiling. Anyway, I am hoping it was the standing water, and jiggling that fixed the E23 that caused the small amount of water in the base that caused the E15. Dried it all up, blew a fan for a bit, then replaced styro float and now fingers crossed. I did a rinse cycle just now, and no visible drips. Doing a full wash cycle curently. Thanks again.
Nice to have such clear footage. In my case the leakage came from the dish salt bowl. It was leaking past it's neck. Solved it by applying ship's windows glue. You just have to remove a large plastic swivel which you can see after taking off the filler cap. Then tuck in some glue all around the neck. Put the swivel back on and leave it to dry a while.
Very helpful video, thank you. Bosch 500 has a bunch of wires connected to the outer panel. It was awkward but I was able to remove the lower panel and dry the float without removing these wires. Also the Bosch 500 had about a dozen t20 torx screws holding the panel on. I didn't realize until the end that there were two different lengths. I guessed that the longer ones were at the top of the panel and so far so good.
Hello. I'm So pleased with myself as Thanks to you and another youtube video I have solved the E15 problem with my Siemen dishwasher. Iam 61 woman on her own and your detailed explaining was really simple and easy to follow.. THANK you very much!!
Thanks for the video! Managed to clear the water from the trough, and we're good to go. I had this problem come up after running a washing cycle with too much detergent. I read somewhere that using too much detergent can create more suds that the machine can handle, and that will end up leaking through to places where they shouldn't. So make sure you read detergent/soap packaging, and put in the right amounts.
Thanks for an informative video. I did what you did then ran it with covers off and found a small trickle of water from door seal leaking into the front drip tray which feeds into the lower reservoir where the floats sits. Now to find a door seal as the local service company are useless. PS, Just saw the coffee donation you have, great idea. Enjoy one on me 👍
Thank you for this video, I found a small amount of water, enough to stop machine.No sign of obvious leaks, probably just 6 years of use opening door while running could be culprit.Hardest job removing and replacing washer. Thanks again. Lyall Nilsson in lockdown Victoria Australia
@@Sawickipedia have you seen leakage along right side of washer, where stainless meets plastic base. Upon removing side panel i found the base has bowed outwards, causing the seal to leak water over electric control panel. Will try to dry it out and seal with silastic inside and out (maybe a couple of screws might help). Will take photos before and after.
Very helpful instructions. I was nervous about removing the front panel because my handle and top look slightly different; and it wasn't obvious what woujld happen if I removed those screws. (Although the six screws are there just as you showed.) Honestly, it was very easy to simply pull the dishwasher out from its enclosure and see everything from the exposed side of the unit. I could see all of the hoses and wires you showed in the video. And, it was not much trouble to remove that styrofoam disk, dry out the area and put it all back together again. I have no idea if that water built up over two years or two days. But the unit is running as I type this.... thanks again.
Superb video with great camera work and explanations. My model was slightly different, but this helped me understand the error code, disassemble the housing, and find a leaking intake valve in the back of the dishwasher. $20 US fix. Keep up the good work from down under! Cheers from Colorado, USA!
This worked like a charm. Thank you so much! Excellent description. Step by step, very clearly laid out. The only difference is that we have a newer model Bosch that had wires connected to the outside panel, so I would advise caution when pulling the panel away just in case. Those needed to be carefully disconnected. Also, we couldn’t run a test cycle until the panel was reinstalled. Other than that the directions were spot on. Just saved us hundreds of dollars!!
So glad I found your video. I had this error appear on my Neff dishwasher and managed to fix it, thanks to your clear and simple instructions. Thanks mate.
¡Hola buenas tardes! E15 code appeared this Christmas Day Morning, after water ran down and into the machine, into the sump and, triggered the unit. Your video, found purely as first on TH-cam search for code E15 on my dishwasher. Proves there is method in my TH-cam search madness. You've saved the day and, a few euros, I'm certain. I've subbed to the channel and will look through a few bits and pieces in due course. Stay safe and well. Un saludo. Gary
Please help with some ideas. My dishwasher works perfectly on quick wash but water in the lower tray causes E15 whenever I run an intensive wash. I can't see how the water is getting there even when lying on the floor and watching with the base panel off.
Thanks. Mine leak was a fractured plastic housing on the water inlet solenoid valve. $20 on Amazon. Repaired it myself. Be not afraid of conducting your own appliance repairs. Many repairs are simple replacements of component part that can be ordered.
Thank you, error gone, it took only 20 minutes of work. Only one thing, for me would have worked also without taking off the front panel. There was a lot of water at the base, indeed. Thank you again, subscribed :)
Great video- fixed my issue and I gave my dishwasher a well earned clean up. Nice and clear instructions saving me time, money, and many lost screws. It’s a thumbs up from London.
Thank you so much for this video! It was quite easy to take apart. I'm now removing the water in the tray (likely caused by the burst water pipe, that soaked our kitchen). So, fingers crossed when putting it together again later!
Useful video. In my case the water leak was coming from the o'ring between the heat exchanger and the tub. Easy to access by removing the left side cover (2 torx only) and the exchanger (2 torx and both plastic parts in the tub with 10mm allen key). Replace the O'ring and install with silicon grease. Defect cleared. Part N° : Bosch cover 00611314
Thank you! This was a huge help. My mother's dishwasher wasn't working and she didn't know what the error code meant. I found your video and we were able to clean out the mess that was clogging up the dishwasher.
Thank you ........ your information/steps/method to sort out the E15 error code were 100% spot on. It was very easy to do everything after watching this video.
Hi, great video. Saved me getting a call out guy, even if I could during lockdown. Found a little water in the tray, which looked as it it had accumulated over time. Interested to see how long the fix lasts or if the leak worsens. Thanks a lot from Ireland.
Thanks mate. The “Made in Germany” model is a little different but if you own a free standing model without the kick board you will need to tilt the machine back about 45º to effectively get the lower panel off. The height adjustable feet may prevent the lower panel coming off. I unscrewed the feet and the panel was more easily removed. I dried and cleaned the water sensor polystyrene disc and tray but still get the E15 error code. I think the inlet valve might be the next item to look at as water immediately filled the float valve tray when the water tap was turned back on (judging by how the pump kicked in immediately upon restoring power).
For someone who describes DIY as Destroy it Yourself, it's real credit to you that I could do this. Thanks so much. This saved me a few bob and earned me lot of confidence.
Brillant ! Thanks from France. I found water indeed, the switch must have been "depressed" ;-) On my Bosch dishwasher, the last 2 screws (5:20 of the video) can be accessed and unscrewed without unscrewing the 6 screws of the front panel.
Moved my neff dishwasher and it came up with this error code. Followed your video, sir I owe you a massive thank you. Water had gotten into the tray as described and raised the polystyrene disc. Saved myself a small fortune, and learned new skills. Thank you.

Brilliant ! Mine fixed in 30 seconds (after it had dried out underneath) the lower washer arm had come loose - flooding the bottom of machine
Thank you for the video. This is the first problem I have had with my Bosch dishwasher in 4 years. Will try your repair suggestion and report back.
Hey Andy, hope you got it sorted!
Great Instructions thank you for the video. Just one point in some dishwashers (Bosch Canada) the styrofoam disc may have a larger center boss on it. Which doesn't show on your video.

Let's all appreciate that you lifted a dishwasher up on a table for making this video.
Thanks a lot! I watched many other vids, but only you explain how to remove small cover under the door! You are the best 👍
I Like Those Diagnostics For The Dish Washing Machine
Thank you. I removed side water tank and cleaned all the crud outa the little float valve, then got e15, I had spilt water into base . Very good video, washer working like new now👍😁
thank you so much man, I had mice who came in and ate the polystyrene disk, that's why my machine was in security mode all that time.
Well filmed and well explained, you saved me a new machine ^^
From where you bought the disk then. Same thing happened with my machine too.
Thanks, my dishwasher is working again. Two things I'd love to get some clarification on. First, there was water in my salt compartment. Is that a problem? Second, I had an integrated front, so the screws I had to remove weren't the same as the ones you removed. An opportunity for a follow-up video.
But thanks to this video I now have a working dishwasher that I fixed myself.
Thank you Kristoffer. For the water in the salt compartment, this is likely to be normal and nothing to worry about. Glad you got it fixed
Very helpful video. I feel like a pro dishwasher repairer 😉 Thanks a bunch!!!
Problem described. Solution demonstrated. Problem solved. Teenage son now thinks he can fix anything (with Dad's help). Thanks from Raleigh, North Carolina, USA!
Thanks for video. Just managed to fix my E15 error. I have a little different model, however, main tips was useful and easy to adapt to my case.
GROOVY mate Been doing this work for 28 years. an only ran on this unit 2xs and got the issues right
Thanks a lot for this video, clear and detailed so I fixed my dishwasher in 15 minutes! This was great stuff, mate!
very helpful video, clear and straightforward
This helped me greatly. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge
Brilliant, thanks dude saved me a bloody fortune. Worked a treat.
So, that's great! Presumably, then, water should never enter this bottom part of the dishwasher, correct? I have a new one that is throwing the error code, so investigated as you suggested (actually managed to get a strange wrench I have to remove those two screws without having to remove the front panel), and that eps float is indeed surrounded by water! As it's under warranty, guess I'll have to ask for a repairman to turn up...
Thanks a lot for your very clear, concise video!
Thank you very much for your video. You save me money! Keep going :)
Our 6 year old Aquastar 6.0 has done this twice so far, first time it dried out and reset after a day but 2nd time..pfft. Thanks so much for this video, trying it tonight! Please pray for me 😄 I am wondering if it's from putting breadboards and tins against the dryer vent.
So does the repair stop it? Or is this something I’ll be doing weekly? This is completely ridiculous to spend so much on such a bad design. Should I buy a better designed machine? Please help me
Excellent: fixed in no time. How can I prevent the leak though?
If it happens again, best bet is to remove the bottom cover and run a cycle to see if you can spot where it's coming from.
Of the four videos i've watched in the topic, this one is het best! Except that it doesn't actually provide the solution, which is often to replace/add a silicone ring.
Which ring did you need to replace?! I'm not keen on pursuing a call or fee for them to replace a 50c silicon trying of I can find it myself!!!
Check the rotor arms for splits at the side, if they are split, it will chuck water into the lower base.

In my case the leaking part was the door bottom, the rubber was not fixed properly. 1 coffee.👍
Thanks for the donation, but nothing come through on my end. It's ok if you haven't donated or have forgotten, I just wanted to let you know
Great video thanks for posting

I also had the problem of not being able to remove the disk. My model is a bit different and I just could not get my hand in there.
What a hero. You saved us a few 100 $
Thank you for the instructions. Great stuff!
I did find water under the styrofome. Any sugestions to where i should start to look for leaks?

No worries 😃
I understand the safety switch side, what controls how much water enters machine? Seems like mine over fills, thereby flooding to bottom of unit?
Hello. I'm So pleased with myself as Thanks to you and another youtube video I have solved the E15 problem with my Siemen dishwasher. Iam 61 woman on her own and your detailed explaining was really simple and easy to follow..
THANK you very much!!
Whoa! Did you remove the kick board and front panel? Did you have a torx T15 scredriver already in your tool box?
Thanks for the video! Managed to clear the water from the trough, and we're good to go.
I had this problem come up after running a washing cycle with too much detergent. I read somewhere that using too much detergent can create more suds that the machine can handle, and that will end up leaking through to places where they shouldn't. So make sure you read detergent/soap packaging, and put in the right amounts.
Fixed my problem in 5 minutes. Many thanks from Portugal. Public service right there.

Superb video with great camera work and explanations. My model was slightly different, but this helped me understand the error code, disassemble the housing, and find a leaking intake valve in the back of the dishwasher. $20 US fix. Keep up the good work from down under! Cheers from Colorado, USA!
This worked like a charm. Thank you so much! Excellent description. Step by step, very clearly laid out.

Thanks for this. Got my dishwasher fixed in 20 minutes.
thanks mate just saved me a boat load...Living proof heros are in all walks of life! THANKYOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Excellent video, helped a complete non-DIYer reactivate a Bosch dishwasher that was displaying the E15 fault.
Thank you.
Thanks so much, fixed the issue with our dishwasher. Great video, really helpful.
So glad I found your video. I had this error appear on my Neff dishwasher and managed to fix it, thanks to your clear and simple instructions. Thanks mate.
¡Hola buenas tardes! E15 code appeared this Christmas Day Morning, after water ran down and into the machine, into the sump and, triggered the unit. Your video, found purely as first on TH-cam search for code E15 on my dishwasher. Proves there is method in my TH-cam search madness. You've saved the day and, a few euros, I'm certain. I've subbed to the channel and will look through a few bits and pieces in due course. Stay safe and well. Un saludo. Gary
Please help with some ideas. My dishwasher works perfectly on quick wash but water in the lower tray causes E15 whenever I run an intensive wash. I can't see how the water is getting there even when lying on the floor and watching with the base panel off.
We just finished repairing our dishwasher following the instructions in your awesome video. Thank you so much!!!!
Thanks. Mine leak was a fractured plastic housing on the water inlet solenoid valve. $20 on Amazon. Repaired it myself. Be not afraid of conducting your own appliance repairs. Many repairs are simple replacements of component part that can be ordered.
Thanks buddy! (kiwi living in France). Donated a small something.
Thank you!
Thank you, error gone, it took only 20 minutes of work.
Only one thing, for me would have worked also without taking off the front panel. There was a lot of water at the base, indeed.
Thank you again, subscribed :)
Great video- fixed my issue and I gave my dishwasher a well earned clean up. Nice and clear instructions saving me time, money, and many lost screws. It’s a thumbs up from London.
Super video. Managed to trace my problem back to water in the base. Up & running in 20 minutes. You’re a star for sharing your knowledge. 👍
Thank you so much for this video! It was quite easy to take apart. I'm now removing the water in the tray (likely caused by the burst water pipe, that soaked our kitchen). So, fingers crossed when putting it together again later!
Thank you so very much, I had this error this morning. By your video I’ve now fixed my dishwasher 🥰 thank you so much 😊
Can't thank you enough for this video. Your instructions and demonstration was clear to follow. Code e15 is no more. Thanks from the UK
Useful video. In my case the water leak was coming from the o'ring between the heat exchanger and the tub. Easy to access by removing the left side cover (2 torx only) and the exchanger (2 torx and both plastic parts in the tub with 10mm allen key). Replace the O'ring and install with silicon grease. Defect cleared. Part N° : Bosch cover 00611314
Perfect! Fixed my dishwasher by following the information in this video. Thank you!
The video helped me! Reparation succesvol thanks to the instructions. Thank you. Greeting from Holland.
Awesome video, thanks for easy explanation and superb demonstration.
Thank you! This was a huge help. My mother's dishwasher wasn't working and she didn't know what the error code meant. I found your video and we were able to clean out the mess that was clogging up the dishwasher.
Excellent video, very helpful and well explained.
Good audio and image.
Good work.
Thanks
Thanks Pedro
Thank you ........ your information/steps/method to sort out the E15 error code were 100% spot on. It was very easy to do everything after watching this video.
Hi, great video. Saved me getting a call out guy, even if I could during lockdown.
Found a little water in the tray, which looked as it it had accumulated over time. Interested to see how long the fix lasts or if the leak worsens.
Thanks a lot from Ireland.
Did the leak return?
Thanks mate. The “Made in Germany” model is a little different but if you own a free standing model without the kick board you will need to tilt the machine back about 45º to effectively get the lower panel off. The height adjustable feet may prevent the lower panel coming off. I unscrewed the feet and the panel was more easily removed. I dried and cleaned the water sensor polystyrene disc and tray but still get the E15 error code. I think the inlet valve might be the next item to look at as water immediately filled the float valve tray when the water tap was turned back on (judging by how the pump kicked in immediately upon restoring power).
Fantastic!! Got the micro switch out and burnt out also poly dish broken! MANY THANKS Sir!! from the UK !!
Cheers to that🍻
When the switch is depressed it'll be very sad.....!!!
Hi! Is there any reason why a brand new dishwasher would have this error code? We literally used it twice. Help please!!
For someone who describes DIY as Destroy it Yourself, it's real credit to you that I could do this. Thanks so much. This saved me a few bob and earned me lot of confidence.
did the quick fix and seemed to work until next time maybe
many thanks
Thank you ! all Fixed
Brillant ! Thanks from France. I found water indeed, the switch must have been "depressed" ;-) On my Bosch dishwasher, the last 2 screws (5:20 of the video) can be accessed and unscrewed without unscrewing the 6 screws of the front panel.
Got a Bosch that first coded E07. Changed dryer fan. Worked a few days and now coding E15. How are the these related or are they related?
Perfect explanations , thank you very much :-)
