Electrolux Dishwasher Error Code i00

The i00 code means the dishwasher's control electronics have detected that the incoming supply voltage has dropped below the 180V lower threshold. As a protective measure, the dishwasher pauses all operations until the voltage recovers to at least 186V. This is a power supply issue, not an internal component failure. The machine should restart automatically once adequate voltage is restored.

The dishwasher is designed to pause automatically when it detects low voltage, which prevents it from running in an unsafe condition. However, if the underlying cause is a loose or arcing electrical connection, continuing to use the appliance without addressing it could be a fire hazard. It is best to identify and correct the cause of the low voltage before resuming regular use.

If the issue is a utility brownout or a simple overloaded circuit, there may be no repair cost at all. If an outlet or wiring connection needs to be repaired or replaced, electrician fees typically range from $75 to $250 depending on the scope of work. In cases where circuit wiring needs to be upgraded or a new dedicated circuit is required, costs can range from $200 to $600 or more. Internal dishwasher repairs are unlikely to be needed for this error code.

Start by measuring the voltage at the dishwasher's outlet with a multimeter, ideally while the dishwasher is trying to run, to see if the voltage is dropping below 180V under load. Check whether other high-draw appliances are running on the same circuit and try to reduce that load. If voltage at the outlet is consistently low, inspect wiring connections at the outlet, junction box, and breaker panel for looseness or corrosion. Persistent low voltage from the utility supply may require contacting your electricity provider.

A manual reset is generally not required for the i00 error. The control electronics are designed to resume normal operation automatically once the supply voltage recovers to 186V or above. If the error persists after voltage is restored, check that the power supply is stable and that no loose connections are causing intermittent drops.
