Wash tank fill time exceeded

Source: ITW FOOD EQUIPMENT GROUP/00008 EDH-EDL_EUH-EUL Dishwashers Operation and Error Card F48737 (01-23).pdf

What does ITW Food Equipment Group 13 mean?

The wash tank took longer than expected to fill to its required level, so the control flagged a fill time exceeded error. Cycling power lets filling continue, and the most common physical cause is clogged nozzles on the wash and rinse arms restricting how water moves through the system.

Symptoms

  • Error code 13 shown on the display
  • Wash tank slow to fill or not reaching level
  • Cycle stalls during the fill stage
  • Clogged or weak spray from wash or rinse arms

Common causes

  • Clogged nozzles on the wash or rinse arms
  • Low or interrupted incoming water supply
  • Restricted fill path or valve
  • Fill valve fault

Diagnostic steps

  1. Cycle power to continue filling

    Cycle the power button off and then on to continue filling the wash tank.

  2. Check the spray arms

    Check the wash and rinse arms for clogged nozzles and clear any blockages.

  3. Confirm the tank fills

    Run the machine and verify the wash tank now reaches its level and code 13 clears.

  4. Call Hobart Service if it persists

    If the error continues to display, contact Hobart Service at 1-888-4HOBART.

When to call a professional

Contact Hobart Service if code 13 persists after cycling power and clearing the wash and rinse arm nozzles. A wash tank that still fills too slowly may have a fill valve or supply problem beyond simple cleaning. An authorized Hobart technician can test the fill valve, water supply and level sensing and correct the underlying restriction.
