What E14 usually means
E14 usually points to a water-flow or flow-sensor condition.
Codes can vary by exact Bosch dishwasher model number, production year, and regional design. Use this as first-pass guidance, then confirm the model-specific manual or manufacturer support page before opening panels or replacing parts.
First checks
Confirm the supply valve is open, the sink has normal pressure, and water is not leaking under the sink.
Flow warnings can overlap with inlet restriction, sensor readings, or water-level behavior.
- Open the supply valve fully.
- Check household water pressure.
- Look for visible under-sink leaks.
- Record when E14 appears.
When to stop
Stop if E14 returns after visible supply checks, water leaks, or the unit behaves abnormally during fill.
Keep the full model number, exact E14 display text, cycle name, and timing ready before contacting Bosch support or a qualified technician.
Model numbers affected
Commonly searched model families include built-in dishwashers, front-control dishwashers, top-control dishwashers, and compact dishwashers.
