# Asko dishwasher showing F54

F54 means the overflow guard has tripped because the water rose above the normal level.

## What F54 actually means.

F54 means the overflow guard has tripped because the water rose above the normal level. The guard pumps water out and cuts off the supply on its own.

ASKO dishwasher display

What to do when F54 shows on the dishwasher

### Kind of code Water supply

Not enough water arrived, or it arrived too slowly. The supply valve under the sink and the inlet screen are checked before the fill valve itself.

### Usually leads to Fill and water valve repair

A dishwasher that will not fill, fills too little, or keeps filling, traced through the valve, the float and the supply.

### Shows up as Dishwasher Not Filling With Water

The cycle starts and hums, but little or no water comes into the tub.

## Before you book, in this order.

01

Turn off the water supply valve first.

02

Only after the valve is closed, unplug the dishwasher; Asko warns that unplugging earlier can let water leak out.

03

Book a visit before using the dishwasher again.

### Still there?

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

### What not to do

F54 is the second and more serious overfill stage, not the milder F10.

## Questions about F54.

### Can I clear F54 myself?

Turn off the water supply valve first. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Why does Asko say to close the water before unplugging for F54?

The overflow guard has already drained the tub and blocked the supply, and Asko warns that pulling the plug first can let water escape. Close the valve, then unplug, in that order.

### Can I keep using my Asko after an F54 overfill?

Asko ranks F54 as the more serious of its two overfill stages. Leave the machine off with the water closed until it has been checked.
