Bosch Dishwasher E14 — Flow meter / impeller fault
Bosch Dishwasher · Error code E14
What E14 Means
The flow meter (reed/Hall sensor on a small impeller) is not pulsing as water enters. The board cannot measure how much water is added.
Symptoms
- Cycle stops shortly after start
- Fill cycle abnormally short or long
- E14 returns intermittently
Common Causes
1
Magnetic impeller stuck
Debris or scale locking the impeller in the flow meter.
2
Failed Hall sensor
Sensor PCB on the flow meter has died.
3
Harness disconnected
Connector to flow meter loose after recent service.
4
Low flow rate
Pressure so low that the impeller doesn't reliably spin.
How to Fix It
- Shut off water and disconnect the inlet hose.
- Inspect the AquaStop / flow meter assembly for visible debris.
- Reseat the harness connector to the flow meter.
- Test water pressure at the supply (should be 20-120 psi).
- If the impeller is stuck or sensor dead, replace the AquaStop inlet hose assembly.
