Before you book,
in this order.
Each step comes from JennAir's own guidance for F8E4 on its dishwashers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.
Turn off the water feeding the dishwasher.
Use Cancel twice, once for the tone and once for the code.
On a recent installation, check each supply connection and the rubber washer in the fitting.
Empty the tray and book a visit if it takes on water again.
What not to do
Resetting power alone does not answer F8E4; the tray has to be dry for the code to stay away.
