# Viking dishwasher drain & fill repair

Water that will not go out, or will not come in. Nearly all of it is in the plumbing rather than in the machine — which is why counting the two flashing lights before we arrive saves a visit surprisingly often.

## How this visit actually goes

The same order every time, so nothing is opened and nothing is charged before you have seen the figure and said yes.

- 01

												Count the two lights

													This machine shows no code. Pots/Pans flashes a count, Normal Wash flashes a count, and the pair is the message — one then five is drain, two then two is fill. Counting it before the machine is switched off is the whole diagnosis.

- 02

												Work through the drain path

													The sink, the disposal, the plug in the disposal on a new installation, the high loop, the filters and whether the machine is level. All six are checked before anything is dismantled.

- 03

												Check the fill side outside the machine

													The valve under the sink, the line behind the machine, and the pressure at the tap. Those are the first three checks a technician makes and two of them can be done before we arrive.

## About Viking dishwasher drain & fill repair

### The appliance with no code

Every other appliance in this catalog reports something a person can write down. The dishwashers do not. Two lights on the front flash a count each and the pair is the message, and on machines built before 26 May 2010 there are no counts at all — an X appears under a row of cycle lights instead.

### What actually goes wrong

- **The drain path** — sink, disposal, hose loop, filters. Most of these calls end here.
- **The supply valve** under the sink, closed and forgotten.
- **The machine not being level**, which changes what the level sensing reads.
- **The fill valve or the pressure sensor**, which is the part of this that is genuinely inside the machine.

### What decides the figure

Whether it is in the plumbing or in the machine. The first is the low end of this row by a wide margin, and it is checked first for exactly that reason.

Before you book

## Questions about viking dishwasher drain & fill repair

There is not one. This maker does not display a code on any of its dishwashers — anything you find online offering a numbered Viking dishwasher code has invented it. Count the flashes on the two front lights instead, and we can tell you what it means on the phone.

Check whether the plug was knocked out of the garbage disposal. It is a genuinely common oversight on a new installation, it costs nothing, and it produces exactly this.

That is not a count — it is a pan flood, meaning water in the base of the machine. Turn the water off at the valve under the sink and do not run it again until the leak is found. That one is the machine protecting your floor.
