20 Most Recent Hobart LXiGC Dishwasher Questions & Answers

E0 STANDS FOR NO WATER @SUMP PROBE DURING 3 CONC. CYCLES. MY FIRST GUESS WOULD BE THERE IS SOMETHING STUCK IN YOUR DRAIN VALVE ALLOWING ALL THE WATER TO GET PUMPED OUT INSTEAD OF WASHING AND STAYING IN THE TANK. DONT FORGET TO VOTE

It's acceptable to just pour the proper amount of detergent right into the unit every time you wash a load. However, there are two things to consider.

1. Without pumps, it is important to ensure that your final rinse temperature is, at minimum, 180 degrees for proper sanitation of your dishware. If you have a LXiGC, as you've indicated, you'll have trouble doing this because that unit does not have it's own booster heater to maintain such high temps. Usually, sterilization is achieved through the use of a chemical sanitizer, delivered via a pump during the rinse cycle, on that particular model.

2. Also, it will be impossible to properly deliver rinse aid (jet-dry) to the machine without pumps. This may lead to noticeable "spotting" of your glassware.

Adding pumps to the unit is an option I would seriously consider. Your most economical route would be to have your chemical company install their pumps externally. Your local Hobart office can offer you the addition of chemical pumps, as well, but you'll pay a premium price for them.

I'll add, if you do decide to get the pumps, insist that the proper ratio of chemical is being delivered (achieved via pump programming). It's not uncommon for the pumps to be improperly programmed and excessive amounts of chemicals consumed. These guys are, after all, in the chemical SALES business.

Contact your local chemical supplier such as EcoLab or AutoChlor to purchase the proper chemicals. Use ONLY commercal dish washing chemicals. Residential detergents like Cascade do not dissolve fast enough and WILL, in time, cause you trouble if used in the LXi.

There should be three colored plastic tubes at the rear of your machine. Red is to be put in a container of liquid detergent, Blue is for rinse aid, and white/clear is for sanitizer. Your chemical salesman should be able to show you how it's done at no charge.

All the best.

I take it, the screaming is a beeping sound from the detergent alarm feature.
The chemical tubes from detergent and rinse run through a sensor board on the rear of the machine. If there is an interuption in the flow, or an air hole in the tube, or wrong chemical, it will trigger an alarm..
Is there a chance when replacing the pump tubes, that they were installed in the wrong direction? They should feed in on the bottom, run clockwise and discharge at the top. Check for restrictions in the flow.

make sure valve cover is very tight and o-ring is in place inside the valve.

ensure rubber seal did not fall out of fill hose end (if you removed it )

ensure hose clamps are tight.

ensure the curved hose from the fill valve to the booster is not brittle and cracked.
thats it!

Question edited for clarity. Error codes should be on the rear label according to the Technical Manual https://www.partstown.ca/modelManual/HOB-AM15T_spm.pdf There is no E1 error code for that machine and is is suggested that the display may be faulty. https://www.google.com/search?q=hobart+am15+e1+error+code The only reference to E1 is here, for the AM-16 and an electrical 'type'. https://www.hobart.ca/wp-content/uploads/pdfs/warewash/AM16-BAS-Base-Electric-CF48568.pdf For LXi machines Drain and fill error messages are displayed as E0, E1, E2, E3, E4, E5, E6 or E7. In all cases, the dishwasher will terminate current cycle operations, turn off all heat sources and display the message until the OFF button is pressed. (A power drain will not occur when turned off.) (See Troubleshooting.) If problem persists, contact your local Hobart Service Office Phone Hobart Support. there are no Hobart Techs here, just me as caterer, career long Hobart user and Expert finder of information.

To me the Error is telling you Probe Error - Wash - Power - Drain CL & CLe Series Dishwasher Display Codes Below are common codes that display on Hobart CL and Cle Series Dishwashers:

• Door(s) Open - This displays if one or both doors are open. Close all inspection doors.
• Clear Conveyor Jam - The code appears if there is a jam. Remove the rack from the machine. Then, press START and rerun the rack.
• Probe Err - TANK - Check if the lower float assembly in the displayed tank isn't visibly damaged and that the proper amount of water is covering the lower float in the tank.
• Probe Error - FnlRns - Make sure the supply water valve to the rinse booster is open.

Probably the temperature sensor, but do you want to risk $227 on a guess? It is a commercial machine, just call your local service tech. https://www.google.com/search?q=hobart+dishwasher+ft1000+service+manual+pd It is NOT a common fault https://www.google.com/search?q=hobart+dishwasher+ft1000+rinse+temperature+blank ..

Question edited for clarity and written English. It is a professional machine, you have it serviced professionally by your local Hobart Service Centre and claim the repair against your expenses. The machines are way beyond the capabilities of someone that can just buy parts online. It is either incorrectly wired or the control board or relays are are failing / failed.

1.Loss of water pressure due to pump obstruction. Check for any obstruction at the pump intake. 2.Strainers clogged causing inadequate water supply to pump. 3.something may be inhibiting free movement of the low water float; remove any foreign object from around the low water float or its magnet.

It sounds like you're experiencing recurring issues with the float assembly on your Hobart AM14 dishwasher. You've already ruled out potential causes such as heat and electrical issues, and have even replaced the main board to try to resolve the problem. However, you're still encountering failures with the float assembly, which is unusual given that the dishwasher has been in use for 18 years without any prior issues with the float. Without additional information or an on-site inspection, it's difficult to pinpoint the exact cause of the float assembly failures. However, some potential causes could include:

1. Damage or wear to the float assembly parts: Over time, the float assembly parts may become worn or damaged, which can affect their performance and lead to failures.
2. Water quality issues: Poor water quality, including high mineral content or excessive amounts of chemicals, can damage the float assembly or cause it to malfunction.
3. Improper installation: If the float assembly is not installed correctly, it may not function properly and could fail prematurely.
4. Inconsistent usage: If the dishwasher is not used consistently or is used excessively, this could put strain on the float assembly and cause it to fail more frequently.

It's important to work with a qualified technician who has experience with Hobart AM14 dishwashers to diagnose and resolve the issue. They can inspect the dishwasher, including the float assembly and other components, and identify any potential causes of the failures. From there, they can recommend the appropriate course of action to resolve the problem and prevent future failures.

The cooling fan relay for the Alfa Romeo GTV6 1986 is located on the firewall, just behind the battery. The part number is 6043313.

Question edited for a lot more clarity. All question need FULL 'make model (what it is)'. Question moved from laundry Washing Machines to Hobart Dishwasher category. 'DP' or 'PD'? PD is not an error code. It shows that when it draining water out shortly after power-up and when shutting down. If it seems to be showing "PD" longer than usual, it means the dishwasher's control circuitry believes there is still water in the tank, due to a faulty water level probe, most like the one under the lift-out screen. It has a plastic body with a metal probe coming out the center. There is also a dual probe at the rear of the machine, but I believe the dishwasher uses the front probe to determine when to stop draining the machine during "PD" - most likely meaning "Power Drain" or "Power Draining". If you are not seeing any E- codes (E1, E2, E3, etc.) then these water level probes are likely just fine and the "PD" is appearing normally, as it should during draining conditions. Manual just for fun. https://www.partstown.ca/modelManual/HOB-AM15T_spm.pdf ..

E513 =Final rinse temp probe is open circuit. Active when temp read is less than 32°F.

If your Hobart AM15 dishwasher is displaying an AH error code on start up, it usually indicates that there is an issue with the booster heater. AH stands for "Booster Heater Circuit". Here are some troubleshooting steps you can follow to resolve the issue:

1. Check the booster heater temperature sensor. It may be dirty or faulty, preventing the booster heater from functioning properly. Clean or replace the temperature sensor if necessary.
2. Check the booster heater element for continuity. If the element is broken, it will need to be replaced.
3. Inspect the wiring and connections between the booster heater and the control board. Loose or damaged connections can prevent the booster heater from functioning properly.
4. Check the booster heater relay on the control board. If the relay is faulty, it will need to be replaced.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may need to contact a professional technician to diagnose and repair the problem.
