iE0 — Undocumented (Confirm for Your Model)

iE0 is not documented in Frigidaire’s official dishwasher error-code references, so its meaning cannot be confirmed. Frigidaire wash-motor faults are typically in the i50 / iC0 family, and i00 indicates low line voltage. If your unit shows iE0, verify the exact meaning in your model’s service documentation or with Frigidaire support before replacing parts.

How to fix it

  1. Cut power at the breaker for 5 minutes to attempt a reset.
  2. Pull the dishwasher out and inspect the bottom for water damage or rodent intrusion.
  3. Open the control board housing and inspect the wash motor relay for burn marks or a swollen body.
  4. With power off, check the circulation pump windings for resistance to ground (any continuity = bad pump).
  5. Verify wiring from the board to the pump is tight and uncorroded.
  6. Replace the control board if the relay is visibly damaged but the pump tests good.
  7. Replace the wash pump motor if it's shorted or seized — and replace the board if it took the relay with it.

Why it happens

Typical signs: Cycle stops mid-wash and shows iE0 · Wash pump fails to start when it should · Wash pump runs continuously and won't shut off · Dishwasher beeps and flashes iE0 after start

  • Failed wash motor relay on control board The relay contacts welded shut or burned open from years of switching the pump.
  • Shorted or seized circulation (wash) pump A pump with shorted windings or a jammed impeller draws excess current and damages the relay.
  • Loose or corroded wiring at the pump Bad connection causes voltage drops or arcing that confuse the board feedback.
  • Moisture intrusion on the control board A leaking door gasket or steam ingress can corrode the relay area.
