What the i6 codes say
i60, i61, i69 and i6C are Electrolux’s way of reporting a heating problem. The dishwasher cannot warm its water properly, or it falls short of the temperature a cycle requires.
Documentation
You will find them in Electrolux’s UK article on dishwasher codes; the US owner guide omits them. They apply to the current generation of machines.
Before assuming a failure
- Make a photo of the display, or note the entire code.
- Recall whether the supply pressure had dropped, whether a filter had blocked, whether the drain was restricted, or whether the electricity had gone off and come back. According to Electrolux, any of these may set a code off temporarily.
What repetition suggests
Trouble heating, filling, washing or draining, along with a code that comes back or other codes appearing next to it, can indicate a genuine fault. The support article places it in a sensor, a pump, the heating system, the electronic control system or parts attached to them.
Other codes to look at
- Hd, HO: the heat delay notice, a normal pause while water is warmed, with no fault behind it
- i50, i51, i52, i5f: wash motor or water circulation trouble
- iF0, iFo, iF1: the water level is abnormal
Dishwasher service across the Bay Area
In San Francisco and neighboring Bay Area towns, a persistent i60 can be taken up by phone at (415) 449-0036, and Electrolux dishwasher repair gives the overview. Tell the person which code you saw, the model number and the steps you have taken.
Model compatibility: Electrolux reuses codes across series and model years, so i60 / i61 / i69 / i6C may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
