Fagor Dishwasher Error F2

What does the F2 error code affecting your Fagor dishwasher mean?

Dishwashers are very useful and practical appliances that save us time and effort when it comes to cleaning dishes, glasses, cutlery, and other utensils in our kitchen. However, like any electronic device, they can experience some faults that prevent us from enjoying their proper operation.

One of these faults is the F2 error code that appears on some models of Fagor dishwashers. Keep in mind that the F2 error code would be the same as the F02 error code, so their causes and solutions would be exactly the same.

The F2 error code indicates that there is a problem with the water supply or drainage in the dishwasher. This problem can have several reasons why it may appear on your dishwasher's screen, such as:

• A filter, pump, or hoses for water inlet or outlet that may be clogged or very dirty.
• An insufficient, excessive, or irregular water pressure or flow in your supply.
• A failure in the water level sensor or in the inlet or outlet valve of the water.
• An incorrect or defective installation of the dishwasher or its components.

In the face of this type of error code, the first thing we should do is verify that the dishwasher is correctly connected to the water inlet and drainage, and that there are no visible leaks or drips. It is important to know the cause of this problem, as it could be confusing when performing the necessary repairs.

Could the F2 error code be resolved in Fagor dishwashers?

To ensure you can continue using your dishwasher normally, we have prepared for you a list of solutions that you can apply to fix the F2 error code on your Fagor dishwasher:

1. Turn off and disconnect the dishwasher to reset its sensors: First, let's try this solution, which may be the simplest one you can apply and works to fix many of the error codes that occur on Fagor dishwashers. To do this, simply turn off the dishwasher from the power button and then unplug it from the electrical outlet. Now just wait a few minutes and reconnect and turn it on to verify that the F2 error code has disappeared. This procedure resets the sensors and can clear any occasional errors that may have occurred due to a power supply failure.
2. Clean all filters of your Fagor dishwasher: Locate all the filters your dishwasher works with and carefully remove them for cleaning and maintenance. Wash these filters with water, soap, and a little vinegar to remove any food residue or dirt that may be obstructing the water flow. If necessary, use a soft-bristled brush for this task, but always be careful not to damage the filter mesh. Reinstall the filter and check if the F2 error code has disappeared. If you notice that the filters are broken or in very poor condition, then you will need to replace them with new ones that are compatible with your dishwasher model. If you do find the filters broken, then most likely the pump and hoses will have food and residue that you will need to clean throughout the circuit.
3. Check the pump and water inlet and outlet hoses, located at the back of the dishwasher: Make sure there are no bends, breaks, or blockages preventing normal water flow, both in the inlet and outlet. If necessary, disassemble the pump and hoses and clean them with a soft-bristled brush, water, soap, and some vinegar. You can also use a thin wire to insert it into the hoses and remove any dirt inside. Reassemble everything correctly and ensure there are no leaks anywhere in the circuit. Check the seals and connections to ensure ZERO leaks in your dishwasher and reassemble everything.
4. Check that the water pressure or flow rate from your supply is adequate: Consult the manufacturer's manual for your specific dishwasher model and verify what is the appropriate water pressure for your appliance to work without problems. If the pressure is too low or too high, it can affect the dishwasher's operation. You can measure the pressure with a pressure gauge or consult with your water supply company. If necessary, adjust the pressure with a regulator or shut-off valve. Make sure the valve supplying water to your dishwasher is fully open. It often happens that while using water supply heavily at the same time, this error code may appear, for example, when you are washing clothes and using the dishwasher simultaneously.
5. Check the water level sensor and valves for water inlet or outlet: These components are responsible for detecting and controlling the amount of water entering and leaving the appliance. If they are found damaged or in poor operating condition, they can undoubtedly cause the F2 error code or some other similar one. You can check the condition of these valves and the sensor with a multimeter, following the user manual instructions. If necessary, replace the sensor or valves with new ones that are compatible with your dishwasher model.
6. If the problem persists, please repeat or review everything we mentioned above and follow the steps to the letter: It is possible that you may have missed some details or not performed the steps we mentioned above correctly. In that case, it would be best to review everything we have described in this article, but this time be more careful and attentive to detail. If the problem persists, then perhaps the best thing for this case would be to leave the problem in the hands of a qualified professional.
7. Contact Fagor's technical service and request a home visit for a more in-depth inspection of your dishwasher: If you have already tried everything we have indicated above and the F2 or F02 error code continues to appear on your dishwasher, then it's time to call in the experts. It's time to get in touch with Fagor's official technical service and request a home visit. A qualified Fagor professional can diagnose the problem accurately and with the right tools. They will give you a quote and proceed with the necessary repairs as needed.

In summary, the F2 error code on Fagor dishwashers is due to a problem with the water supply or drainage, which can have several possible causes such as: sensor failures, very low water pressure or flow, dirty or clogged filters or hoses, etc. To fix it, we must check and clean the filters, pump, and water hoses, ensure that the water pressure is adequate, verify the water sensor and valve, and reset the dishwasher. If none of this works, we should contact Fagor's technical service for a proper inspection and diagnosis.
