What i57 / i59 / i5B means

Three related codes show on Electrolux ICON dishwashers such as the EI24ID50QS and EW24ID70QT, and each concerns how the motor control board reads the pumps. An i57 means the board's battery-voltage reading is not plausible. An i59 means the wash pump current reading failed, and an i5B means the wash and drain pump current readings do not make sense together. The cycle stops and the display shows the code.

Common causes of i57 / i59 / i5B

  • Motor control board measuring circuit
  • Connector between the board and the pumps
  • Wash pump or drain pump drawing odd current
  • Power board feeding the motor control
✓ One safe check you can try

1. Press Cancel and open the door to look for standing water. 2. Clean the filter by hand. 3. Close the door and run a short Rinse cycle. 4. If i57, i59 or i5B appears again, write down which one and call us with the exact code.

! Why to stop there
  • These codes mostly describe a bad reading, not a dead motor, so we check the board's measuring circuit first.
  • We test both pumps to see whether the numbers the board reports are real.
  • We quote the repair in writing before we start, and you approve it.
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.

i57 / i59 / i5Bi57 / i59 / i5B questions
Which code is worst?

None of them is an emergency, but each stops the cycle. Telling us which code you saw helps, because i57, i59 and i5B point to slightly different parts of the circuit.

Does a good reading mean the pump is fine?

Not always. A bad reading can come from the board even when both pumps are healthy, so we compare the board's numbers with a direct test.

Can I reset it?

Cancel clears the display, but it will return if the reading is still wrong. We do not suggest repeated resets.
