Book a visit if it returns.

Still there?

It usually turns into wash motor and circulation. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

F45 does not mean the circulation pump has failed; Asko gives that its own code, F56.

Questions
about F45.

Can I clear F45 myself?
Run any program again to see whether F45 clears. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
What part does Asko F45 point to?
F45 concerns the diverter, which sends water to different spray arms or zones. It does not name the circulation pump, which Asko reports separately as F56.
Does Asko F45 sometimes clear after one more wash?
Asko's first step is simply to run a program again and see whether F45 stays away. If it comes back, a technician should look at the diverter.

Still showing F45?

Book with the characters exactly as shown, the full model number, and whether any water is on the floor — for a code, that is where the diagnosis begins.
