How to fix the overflow error in Fagor Dishwashers

• Error: Overflow or F3 (You can refer to this article)
• Description: Drainage failure in the dishwasher
• Cause: Blockage of food debris in the pipe. Defective drain pump. Problem with the water level control system.
• Solution:
  • Check the condition of the drain pump.
  • Check if the drain hose is not blocked.
  • Check the water level control system.
  • Check the drain pump and the control board.

Step 1: Check the drain pump

The drain pump is a common cause of the overflow error or F3. Disassemble the machine and check if the pump is in good condition. If it’s damaged, you’ll need to replace it.

Step 2: Check the drain hose

Check all the filters and massage the drain hose to ensure that it’s not obstructed by grease and detergent residue. Also, check the plastic piece at the bottom left of the dishwasher for possible blockages.

Step 3: Check the water level control system

The water level control system (compression chamber) on the side of the dishwasher may be blocked or obstructed. Check that it’s in good condition.

Step 4: Check the drain pump and control board

If the above steps do not solve the problem, the overflow error may be caused by a problem with the motor or control board. Check the control board for any damage or defects. If any problems are found, replace the control board. If the motor is working correctly, the problem is likely with the control board.

Step 5: Replace the drain pump

If it’s determined that the drain pump is the problem, you’ll need to replace it. Make sure to install the pump correctly and verify that all components are in place before testing the dishwasher.

Step 6: Test the dishwasher

Once you’ve made the necessary repairs, test the dishwasher to ensure that the F3 error has been resolved. Check that the water drains correctly and that there are no leaks.

Remember that if you still have problems, you’ll need to repeat the troubleshooting process until it’s resolved.

Tips

Keep in mind that the overflow or F3 error in Fagor dishwashers can have multiple causes. If the initial troubleshooting steps do not work, check the control board and drain motor. If the drain pump is the problem, replace it correctly and perform a dishwasher test after repairs.
