E04 – Dishwasher error code

Thermador Dishwasher error code

E04 is an error code the Dishwasher uses to flag a condition the owner manual groups with controls, heating, water, or airflow. The same characters can mean different branches on different revisions, so the rating plate matters as much as the display.

If the code appears with clicking from the valve or fan area, note timing and frequency—mechanical and electrical causes read differently on site.

FAQ

Thermador service—answered clearly

Process, pricing, and what to expect during your visit.

If water remains, the door will not latch, or you see leaks, pause cycles and call. Note the code and whether drain or fill sounds abnormal—repeated runs can worsen water damage.

On some models UP relates to update or firmware state. Check the manual for whether to wait one cycle; if it persists or blocks washing, schedule service with model and serial.
