# Asko dishwasher showing F41

F41 is the heater code on Asko's newer panels.

## What F41 actually means.

F41 is the heater code on Asko's newer panels. Asko's first step is to run the Self-cleaning program with citric acid.

ASKO dishwasher display

What to do when F41 shows on the dishwasher

### Kind of code Heating

The water did not reach the temperature the cycle calls for in time. A heating element, its thermal cutoff or the sensor reading it.

### Usually leads to Heating and drying repair

Cold washes, wet dishes and cycles that run for hours, traced to the heater, its sensor or its safety cutout.

### Shows up as Dishwasher Not Heating Water

Dishes and the tub are cool at the end of the cycle, and grease stays on plates.

### Make ASKO

### Source Asko DBI786IXXLSSOF.U User Manual, Troubleshooting (PDF on the Gorenje Group document server, linked from us.asko.com)

Asko DW60-3 dishwashers DBI776 and DBI786; the DBI675 manual has no F41.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from ASKO's own guidance for F41 on its dishwashers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Run the Self-cleaning program with citric acid.

02

If F41 comes back, turn off the water supply valve and unplug the dishwasher.

03

Book a visit with the machine left in that state.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [heating and drying repair](https://dishwasherrepair.center/services/heating-and-drying-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

F41 is not a water supply code; the heater is what the panel is reporting.

## What you may notice with it.

The dishwasher problems F41 tends to arrive with. Answer these at the dishwasher before anyone is booked.

## Questions about F41.

### Can I clear F41 myself?

Run the Self-cleaning program with citric acid. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why does Asko want citric acid for an F41 heater code?

The Self-cleaning program with citric acid is the first step Asko lists for F41 on the DBI776 and DBI786. Only if F41 shows again afterwards does the manual move on to shutting the water and pulling the plug.

### My Asko DBI675 manual has no F41, so what does that mean?

F41 belongs to the newer DW60-3 panels, the DBI776 and DBI786. On a DBI675, a code that looks like F41 should be read against that model's own table instead.
