Sounds like pressure sensor, most likely the wash tank level sensor air trap blocked.

SOURCE: Hobart LXIH displays P2

The rinse thermistor is bad,look on the back of the machine to the right and you will see 2 black wires with a plug that screws into the vac breaker this is the probe.I bet when the dishwasher goes into the rinse cycle the temp jumps all over,let me know.

Go into maint. mode.
With-in 2 seconds hit Menu,*,2,8,6,4
Then hit 82 when in maint mode.
This will give you a machine error code.
Let me know what that number is and I will help you with a solution.

Good luck!

SOURCE: Error code displayed on duet washer.

This code indicates a serial communication error, meaning communication between the central control unit (ccu) and the motor control unit (mcu) cannot be sent correctly. Check the wiring harness connections at the CCU and the MCU. Unplug and reseat and make sure there is no corrosion. It can also indicate a problem with the door lock relay on the control board. I think that I'd recommend getting an appliance tech to take a look at it. Hope this helped and best wishes.

SOURCE: there is an error code f2. How can I fix this?

The F2 code= siezed pump. To check remove all the dishes followed by the grey dish wrack wedged in the bottom. Lift off the plastic spray arm to reveal a grey plastic ring around the outside of the stainless mesh, and you will also see the blue plastic impeller. Turn this anti clockwise and lift out the whole stainless mesh cover. Then there is a brownish ring with the blue pump impeller on top. Turn this anticlockwise and the pump should lift straight up and out. The impeller may have come off and lifted off with it the brown ring leaving the rest of the pump stuck in the hole. So be careful here, get it out without damaging the housing it fits into. Replace the motor/impeller unit and off you go. Yours could just be stuck of course. A clean may do the same trick.

SOURCE: I have a samsung sensor

I had the same problem. I ended up paying $300 ($100 part $200 labour) for an authorized technician to replace the control board and that fixed the problem.

Dish machine sticks in rinse cycle

Check the solenoid valve on the rinse piping at the top back of the machine. shut water off and take the coil and the top off of the solenoid, carefully remove the innards (so as not to lose them and to remember how they went together) check for debris inside and clean out. Put it back together and try it. If that doesn't work, you will need to replace the solenoid valve. Cost is around $100 at Grainger for a suitable valve or if you want factory part, it is around $350 from Hobart.

Can i use a tankless hw heater to supply my hobart am15 dishmachine

Don't install tankless, because repairs, installation, operation, maintenance, replacement etc are expensive.
And the thing can be unreliable since you are connecting a computer chip and sensors to gas line, water line, electric line, and to a gas burner with vent to outdoors ... and each of these systems has problems on its own without a computer chip that can fail at the first electrical surge.

Otherwise call Rinni for specs.
1-800-621-9419

Ask about the 4 year warranty for residential installation.
Ask about deliming each year.
Ask about exposure to hard water, and water impurities, and water problems. Tankless cannot be exposed to more than 11 grains hardness.
Ask about recommended yearly maintenance requirement.
Ask why there are no service manuals, and how technicians know how to fix the thing without detailed service manuals.
Call around locally and see who services the thing, and ask if there are service problems.

Hobart LX 30 P2 Error and unit overflowing!

Hi drogers77,

I'm not a Hobart technician, but here what I founded in my manual for the LX30 error message:

LX18 / LX30 display shows E0, E2, E3 or E4

1. Low water pressure - check for clogged hose strainer; check that site water pressure meets minimum flow pressures.

2. Make sure probes are clean

3. No water pressure - main water supply valves may not be working

4. Drain valve open - turn machine OFF to drain machine, then ON. Repeat twice (this assists in clearing any drain valve obstructions). Wait for machine to reach READY mode and press WASH. Slowly open door several seconds later and note water level. Close door; 30 seconds later, open door slowly and check that water level is the same as it was. If not, repeat the OFF-ON procedure. If problem persists, call your local Hobart Service Office.

5. Delime machine.

Hope it will help you.
