What the i93 error code actually means

The i93 code means your dishwasher's control panel has detected a problem with its own internal data and has shut down all functions as a precaution. Think of it like the control board failing its own self-test. You won't be able to use the dishwasher until the issue is resolved, either by resetting the power or replacing the control panel board.

Questions people ask about i93

What does i93 mean on a Electrolux dishwasher?
The i93 code indicates a UIDATA checksum error on the user interface board. The board runs a verification routine on its stored configuration data, and i93 appears when that verification returns an invalid result. As a result, all electronic functions on the dishwasher are blocked until the fault is resolved. The fix may be as simple as a power cycle, or it may require UI board replacement.
How do I fix the i93 error on my Electrolux dishwasher?
Start with a full power cycle by disconnecting the appliance from power for at least five minutes. If the error persists, inspect the wiring harness connections at the UI board for loose terminals, corrosion, or visible damage and reseat any suspect connectors. If the error continues after addressing the connections, the UI board itself is likely faulty and will need to be replaced.
How much does it cost to fix the i93 error on an Electrolux dishwasher?
If the error clears with a power cycle, there is no parts cost involved. If the UI board requires replacement, parts typically range from around $80 to $200 or more depending on the specific model. Adding professional labor, total repair costs commonly fall between $150 and $350. Getting a diagnosis from a qualified technician first can help determine whether a board replacement is actually necessary before spending on parts.
Will resetting the power clear the i93 error?
A power cycle is the first recommended step and can clear i93 if the cause was a transient memory glitch. Unplug the dishwasher or turn off the circuit breaker for several minutes, then restore power and observe whether the error returns. If i93 comes back after the reset, the underlying fault is likely a hardware issue with the UI board or its connections that requires further diagnosis.
Is it safe to use my dishwasher when the i93 error is showing?
The dishwasher blocks all electronic functions when i93 is active, so the appliance will not operate in this state. There is no immediate safety hazard, but you cannot run any wash cycles until the error is cleared. Do not attempt to bypass the lockout. Address the root cause through proper diagnosis before using the appliance again.
