Hobart dishwaser hi guys, we have a hobart dishwasher and it is coming up with an error saying bof, any idea what this means? thanks gareth

The BOF message on a Hobart Ecomax 652 dishwasher indicates a "boiler filling" issue, which means the dishwasher is unable to fill the boiler with water. Here are some things you can try:

1. Check the water supply: Make sure that the water supply to the dishwasher is turned on and there is enough water pressure. If there is low water pressure, it may cause the BOF message.
2. Check the water inlet valve: If the water inlet valve is not functioning properly, the dishwasher may not be able to fill the boiler with water. Make sure that the inlet valve is not clogged and is getting power.
3. Check the level probe: The level probe detects the water level in the dishwasher. If it is not working properly, the dishwasher may not be able to fill the boiler with water. Check the probe to ensure it is clean and in good condition.
4. Check the boiler: The BOF message may also indicate a problem with the boiler itself. Check the boiler to see if there is any damage or blockage.

If these steps do not solve the issue, it may be best to contact a professional technician to diagnose and fix the problem.

What is the fault you are trying to reset? Hobart dishwashers don't have a reset button, they reset themselves when the fault have cleared

Needs to have a boiler fill sequence. Do you have the manual, as will should tell you how to do it

Needs a boiler fill sequence carried out. Will tell you how in the manual

after reaching a pre-set number of wash cycle ( default 2500) Hygiene (HYG) indicator will pop out.

The display of "BoF" on the display is simply a confirmation code to commence the next operation on the dishwasher. It is not a fault code.
Refer manual of a AMX model Hobart dishwasher. If your model is different the general codes are same.
