Note the code and when it appeared. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Can I reset my SKS to clear HE? The SKS manual gives no reset procedure for HE and sends the heater circuit failure to service. Write down the code and when it showed up so the technician has that information. ### Is it fine to keep running sanitize loads on an SKS with HE? Hold off on heated and sanitizing programs until the heater circuit has been checked, since the heat those cycles depend on is what the code questions. Ordinary loads will not tell you whether it has recovered. --- **[Read on the site: SKS dishwasher showing HE | DishwasherRepair.center](https://dishwasherrepair.center/error-codes/sks-he/)** **[Book a visit with DishwasherRepair.center](https://dishwasherrepair.center/schedule/)**
