VIKING DISHWASHER ERROR CODE F2

The F2 error code on your Viking dishwasher indicates a problem with the water drainage system. This could be due to a blockage in the drain pump or hoses, preventing proper water drainage during the dishwasher’s operation.

1. Drain Pump Blockage: The drain pump, responsible for expelling wastewater from the dishwasher, may be obstructed.

2. Hose Blockage: The hoses connecting various components of the drainage system may have accumulated debris or developed a blockage.

Troubleshooting and Resolution:

1. Inspect the Drain Pump:

   • Locate the drain pump in your dishwasher. It is typically situated at the bottom of the unit.

   • Check for any visible debris, food particles, or foreign objects obstructing the drain pump.

   • Use a flashlight to get a clear view and remove any blockages with caution, ensuring the dishwasher is disconnected from power.

2. Examine the Drain Hoses:

   • Trace the drain hoses from the dishwasher to the sink or disposal unit.

   • Look for kinks, bends, or blockages in the hoses. Remove any visible debris.

   • If the hoses are damaged, consider replacing them to ensure proper water drainage.

3. Clean or Replace Components:

   • Clean the drain pump and hoses thoroughly. A mixture of vinegar and water can be used to break down deposits.

   • If the drain pump or hoses show signs of wear, damage, or cannot be cleared of obstructions, consider replacing the affected components.

4. Restart the Dishwasher:

   • After cleaning or replacing components, restart the dishwasher to see if the F2 error persists.

   • Run a short cycle to test whether the water drainage issue has been successfully resolved.

By addressing the F2 error promptly and accurately, you can ensure the efficient performance of your Viking dishwasher and prolong its lifespan.
