JennAir Dishwasher FAE4 / F10E4 Error Code

One code, two spellings

JennAir heads this entry “FAE4 or F10E4”, so the two are the same fault. The potential cause named is a Diverter Valve Error. The page does not distinguish between the spellings, and neither does this one.

What a diverter valve is

As a rule, a diverter valve sends water to one outlet or another inside a machine. JennAir says nothing of where yours sits or what moves it, so read that only as a loose definition.

The single listed fix

Cycle the power:

1. Remove power from the dishwasher for 30 seconds.
2. For a plug-in model, unplug it. For a hard-wired model, switch the breaker off at the home electrical panel.
3. Bring the power back.

Other entries tell you to schedule service when the error returns; this one does not. It offers no other action either, so a code that stays means a technician is the next move.

Before you phone

Note the form of the code the display shows, and whether a cycle still starts. JennAir does not describe how the machine behaves with this code, so that detail has to come from you.

The leak sibling

A diverter leak has its own entry, FAE5 or F10E5. If water shows up under the dishwasher alongside this code, read it too.
