Hobart lx30h leaking from bottom

My hobart lx30h is leaking from underneath. It starts leaking gradually during fill cycle. After completing the fill when wash is pressed, it starts leaking a whole lot from underneath the washer. There is no leak in back from the back flow prevention as it's just replaced. The inside probes are clean as I checked and cleaned them. I descale regularly but do not use a softener. Not sure what the problem is? Please help.

Hobart dishwaher building up water after washes

  1. Clogged drain line: The drain line may be clogged with food debris or other debris, causing the water to back up in the machine.
  2. Blocked sump: The sump, which is where the water drains into, may be blocked with food debris or other debris, causing the water to back up in the machine.
  3. Faulty fill valve: The fill valve may be faulty, causing the water to fill beyond the normal level.
  4. Leaking pump or hoses: The pump or hoses may be leaking, causing water to collect under the machine.
  5. Broken float switch: The float switch, which is responsible for controlling the water level, may be broken, causing the water level to rise uncontrollably.
It is recommended to have a certified Hobart technician or a professional commercial dishwasher repair service diagnose and repair the issue

I have a Hobart Dishwasher model LX30, it seems to stall when in the fill cycle from the start, which blocks any further function except shutting down, on the screen there appears a wrench insignia.

Hobart LX30H ML 104354 Manual Page 28
According to the manual ... the wrench icon comes on with OTHER codes for the LX30. Did you get a flashing P1, P2 or P3?
Or for that matter, get any associated E codes to come up?

Depending on the P or E codes there are fixes discussed on prior Fixya answers for this machine ... search there for more help
