Hotpoint Ariston LTF11H132EU Dishwasher: Dealing with Persistent Error 15

Hello
When in March I bought a dishwasher: Hotpoint Ariston LTF11H132EU at first worked without problems. However, for the last two months a mistake has started to appear (after switching on the dishwasher the device is pumping water, I wash the dishes for a while). However, after a few minutes, the number 15 appears and I stop working at that moment. If anyone knows this and knows what's going on, I'm asking for help.

F15 - Virtual sensor error fault

You have nothing else to do but call a service. You have a warranty on the dishwasher.

And what does this error mean, because I have the same problem but I do not have a guarantee anymore

The programmer does not receive the right information from the sensors at a given time. The machine does not perform properly programmed activities.

Thanks for the information, and that means you need to check the contact / replacement parts? Is there any website describing such a case?

This may be, for example, exceeding the programmed time of filling or releasing water.

Hello.

I had the same problem of error 15. Symptoms: after turning on the program, the dishwasher pumped out the water, started to play a little bit, and after a few minutes there was an error. At the beginning she did so in the middle of washing after about 1 hour. Then from the very beginning, without even taking water. The trail hit me because it happened 30 days after the 2-year warranty. I found a service instruction in which it was written:

Error 15 - virtual sensor error - reading from the washing pump incompatible with the reading from the drain pump - whatever that means
Recommendation: replacement of the washing pump.

It was a pity me to spend 300 zlotys on the new pump immediately. I dismantled the old one (it was not easy for me because I never did it), there was a lot of "silt" in the middle, a few hairs and a small seed of grapes. I have cleaned the mount and the problem is gone. The dishwasher normally works

It seems to me that through these dirt, the impellers of the pump encountered resistance as if it were water inside. Since every program starts with pumping out the remaining water, the dishwasher tried to do it 3 times, the resistance did not disappear, it returned error 15. (there is water in the washing pump, not in the drain pump - that's what I understand).

By the way, I cleaned the drain pump, nothing was there, but I think it's always worth checking out because it's a lot less work with it because it's only unscrewed and you do not have to play with the terminals. I hope someone will help ...

Hello, I've done what he wrote rapidBUNNY - indeed there was a lot of sludge and leftovers in the pump, I cleaned the pump, but this procedure did not help. I replaced the washing pump with a new one and all the ailments have passed.

Looking at her carefully, it could be seen that the rotor axis had a very large clearance, which was probably the cause of the failure. Disassembly of the pump and its unscrewing is not terribly troublesome, but you can do it yourself. It can be stated that for this type of error, the pump should first be cleaned, and if the exchange does not help.

For me, after three years of work, it was necessary to replace the pump having. She has graphite cups for this powder with cleaning tablets and pump replacement. I undressed the pump with the thought that it will be possible to make some more pan, but ...

Two years and seven months ... washing pump for replacement.

Cleverly made, I thought that I would make some brass from myself and now 2 weeks ago it definitely fell
