Bosch Dishwasher Error Code E01-00

E01-00 indicates a defective electronics error on a Bosch dishwasher. It points to a failure in the power module or main control module, which manage power distribution and cycle operation. The dishwasher stops functioning to prevent further damage. Resolving this error typically requires inspecting the electrical supply and replacing the faulty electronic component.

No, you should not attempt to operate the dishwasher while E01-00 is active. This error signals a hardware-level electronics failure, and running the appliance in this state could cause additional damage to components or create an electrical hazard. Leave the dishwasher powered off until the fault is diagnosed and repaired.

Repair costs vary depending on whether the power module, control module, or both need replacement, as well as labor rates in your area. Parts alone for electronic control components on Bosch dishwashers typically range from around $80 to $300 or more depending on the specific model. With professional labor, total repair costs generally fall between $150 and $500. Getting a diagnostic estimate before authorizing repairs is recommended.

Basic checks like verifying the electrical supply line and inspecting wiring connections are within reach for a knowledgeable DIYer. However, replacing the power module or control module requires identifying the correct parts from the unit's bill of materials and working safely with electrical components. If you are not comfortable working with appliance electronics, a qualified technician is the safer option.

A reset is unlikely to permanently clear E01-00 because this error reflects a hardware failure in the electronics rather than a transient software glitch. If the code returns immediately after a reset or the dishwasher fails to operate, the underlying power module or control module fault must be addressed. Resetting can be a useful first step to confirm the fault is persistent, but it does not repair the defective component.
