Electrolux Dishwasher Codes i43 and i44: Pressure Sensor Signal Out of Range

Medium · inspection needed

Code: i43 / i44
Appliance: Dishwasher
Brand: Electrolux
Warranty: 30-day workmanship

What i43 / i44 means

On Electrolux built-in dishwashers of the Durham platform, the ICON, EI24CD35, EI24ID30, EI24ID50, EW24ID70 and EW24ID80 models, i43 means the pressure sensor signal has been too high for more than a second, and i44 means it has been too low for that long. The sensor measures water level, and a reading beyond its range tells the control something is wrong with the sensor or what it is reading. The program stops and the number is shown.

Common causes of i43 / i44

Pressure sensor failing
Sensor harness damaged or loose
Blocked or kinked sensor hose
Actual water level far from normal

✓ One safe check you can try

1. Open the door and check for standing water in the tub. 2. Clean the glass trap and filter. 3. Run a short cycle and see whether the number appears again. 4. If it does, write down whether it was i43 or i44 and call us.

! Why to stop there

The two numbers are opposite readings, so we test the sensor across its range before ordering a part.
We confirm the actual water level, since a drain or fill problem can imitate a sensor problem.
You see the price in writing, and we say plainly if it is not worth repairing an older dishwasher.

Opening a panel yourself does not automatically cancel a manufacturer warranty, but it can cause accidental damage, and some manufacturers set their own service conditions. Check your warranty terms, or ask us, before deciding.

Could standing water cause it?
