Error codei30

What i30 is telling you
The dishwasher’s anti-flood protection system has found water in a place it does not belong. That is the whole meaning of i30 on an Electrolux dishwasher: a leak has been detected.
The signal that goes with it
Three beeps
The warning light flashing 3 times

What to do first
Cut the power by stopping the machine and unplugging it if water is really coming out. Electrolux support names a leak as one sign of a genuine fault. The other signs it gives are a code that comes back repeatedly and one that appears just after a cycle starts.
Codes it may be mixed up with
i20: the dishwasher did not drain all of its water
i50: the wash motor or circulation system has a problem
Dishwasher service for San Francisco leaks
A dishwasher in San Francisco or the Bay Area showing i30 can be discussed on (415) 449-0036, and Electrolux dishwasher repair explains more about what is covered. Before calling, note the code, the model number and any water you spotted around the machine.
Model compatibility: Electrolux reuses codes across series and model years, so i30 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

What this code means
Water leak detected: the anti-flood protection found water where it should not be.
Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, gas, water lines, refrigerant or sealed systems. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
