# SKS dishwasher showing IE

A water inlet problem on an SKS dishwasher: water is not coming in as it should.

## What IE actually means.

A water inlet problem on an SKS dishwasher: water is not coming in as it should.

SKS dishwasher display

What to do when IE 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.

### Make SKS

Signature Kitchen Suite, LG's luxury built-in line, including panel-ready dishwashers.

### Source Signature Kitchen Suite SKSDW2401S owner's manual: Error Messages

IE is listed in the manuals for the Signature Kitchen Suite 24-inch SKSDW2401S and SKSDW2402P.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from SKS's own guidance for IE on its dishwashers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Check the inlet hose for a clog, a kink or ice.

02

Confirm the water supply is on.

03

If IE continues, book a visit.

### 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

Do not read IE as the drain code. On SKS the I is for inlet and the O in OE is for outlet.

## What you may notice with it.

## Questions about IE.

### Can I clear IE myself?

Check the inlet hose for a clog, a kink or ice. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Is IE the drain code on a Signature Kitchen Suite dishwasher?

No, IE refers to the inlet, the water coming in, while the drain code on the same machines is OE. Reading one for the other leads to the wrong checks.

### Can a frozen line cause IE on my SKS?

Yes, SKS includes a frozen inlet hose in its checks along with one that is clogged or kinked. Confirm the supply is turned on, and if IE continues after that, book a visit.
