Pull the filter and clean off the film and food caught in it. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### What does long drain mean on a JennAir F9E1? Draining ran past the time the control allows, and water stayed in the tub. JennAir's list starts with the filter and the hose. ### Why does my JennAir show F9E1 as a Clean light blinking? JennAir describes reading such codes as blink counts of the Clean light on some models. The same drain checks apply. --- **[Read on the site: JennAir dishwasher showing F9E1 | DishwasherRepair.center](https://dishwasherrepair.center/error-codes/jennair-f9e1/)** **[Book a visit with DishwasherRepair.center](https://dishwasherrepair.center/schedule/)**
