The E4 error code on the Honeywell HDS18SS indicates an overflow caused by a leak in the dishwasher. To resolve this issue, turn off the main water supply and call for service. If there is water in the base pan, this should also be addressed.

The buttons may not be working because of water or something on the button for more than 30 seconds, which triggers the E9 error. After fixing the E4 code (overflow), there may still be water in the base pan. Ensure the water is completely removed before restarting the dishwasher.

Can you assist with this problem? Dishwasher HDS18SS just started displaying E3 code. How to fix?

To fix the E3 error code on the Honeywell HDS18SS dishwasher:
1. Check the filter for blockages — clean it if needed. 2. Perform a hard reset by flipping the circuit breaker off and then back on.
If the error clears but the dishwasher still doesn't wash (fills with water but does not spray), further troubleshooting may be needed, such as checking the circulation pump.

I just bought the Honeywell stainless steel 18-in dishwasher HDs18ss. Inadvertently the mounting clips were thrown away. Is there any way I can get replacement mounting clips? I've tried everywhere.
