Our diplomat dishwasher (sorry don't know the model as I can't find the manual but it is a built in appliance) comes up with an E2 error a few minutes after starting up. It seems to pump out and then just stop I would like to know what the E2 error code means.

I found that there was a diaphram valve under the door that operated a safety cut out switch. This was activated I presume when we had some form of blockage in the drains and back pressure inflates the diagpram to stop you from refilling the machine. After clearing the blockage from the drains the diagpram stayed inflated, I simply pushed it down and the switch could be heard to click and the machine worked after that!

It is a blockage in the water outlet system (located at the bottom of appliance) and is generally caused by excessive food being left on the plate and getting into this pipe and causing a blockage. This in turn builds up water pressure which activates an air pressure switch and stops the programme. The pipe has to be cleared out (by any meansd possible) or the matrix at the bottom (clear plastic container). Hope this helps.

I also have the same problem but with E9 appearing did you resolve your issue if so if you can advise me how to sort out my problem it would be appreciated.
