## Questions about LE.

### Can I clear LE myself?

Power the SKS machine down. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Is it worth restarting my SKS repeatedly when LE shows?

No, the manual sends LE straight to service and offers no owner fix. Power the dishwasher down rather than cycling it again and again.

### Is there anything I can check before service for LE on an SKS?

Look into the tub for a utensil or dish that stops a spray arm from turning. Beyond that, the wash motor error needs a technician.
