Dishwasher Troubleshooting: E25 Bosch Dishwasher Error Code

Dishwasher with door slightly open and clean dishes inside

My Bosch Dishwasher is displaying an error code E25, what does it mean?

An E25 error code indicates the drain pump is blocked or the drain pump cover is loose or missing.

What dishwasher troubleshooting do I need to do to fix the error code E25?

Please check the following things:

1. Check to see if the drain pump cover is loose. The pump cover is located at the bottom of the dishwasher underneath the filter. Remove the filter to reveal the pump cover and ensure that it’s not loose. If you have trouble locating it, review your owner’s manual.

2. The drain pump may be blocked. The pump is located at the bottom of the dishwasher underneath the filter. First, remove the filter completely to reveal the drain pump cover. Next, pry off the pump cover with a spoon until it clicks. Grip the cover and pull upward until you feel resistance. Then pull forward to remove the cover completely. Check the pump and remove any debris and standing water with a sponge. Use caution as some debris may be sharp. If needed, review your owner's manual for more specific instructions.

What else can I do to solve the E25 Error Code on my dishwasher?
