# Bosch dishwasher error code E01

### What this one means

The control board cannot drive the heat pump motor.

### The other ways your machine may say it

The same condition is published under more than one label, because it has been carried across generations of this appliance:

- **E01, E0100** — the same condition, on machines of different ages

### What the code covers

A published cause names a circuit rather than a component, which is the single most useful thing to know before ordering a part. This one covers:

- The motor itself
- The circuit on the board that drives it
- The wiring between the two

### Worth doing before you call

- Cut power at the breaker for thirty seconds and try one cycle

### Then what

If it returns, this is board and pump territory rather than anything reachable from inside the tub.

This code is published for dishwashers. [The full list of codes](https://esbosch.djwp.xyz/error-codes/) has the rest.
