AEG dishwasher I10 error code
What I10 means on an AEG dishwasher
Water inlet or fill fault.
Meaning checked by NAC's engineers, 9 November 2026.
What our engineers say
On an AEG dishwasher, the I10 code points to a water inlet or fill fault. In plain terms, the machine is not taking in water the way it expects to. You may find it is not filling at all or only partly filling, that a water supply warning is showing, or that a cycle starts and then stops after a few minutes.
Engineers sometimes find that the small chamber the dishwasher uses to sense how much water it holds has become blocked, which can make the machine stop soon after starting or even fill and drain at the same time. They sometimes find that no water is reaching the machine at all because the safety inlet hose that carries water in has failed.
An engineer will usually run a short wash to watch how the machine fills and drains, then check whether water is getting into it and whether that sensing chamber is clear. A blocked chamber can normally be cleaned out there and then. A faulty safety inlet hose needs replacing, and that part may have to be ordered and fitted at a second visit. Afterwards the engineer runs the machine to confirm it fills, washes and drains properly.

Before you check anything yourself
- Switch the dishwasher off and unplug it, or turn it off at the isolator switch, before you touch anything. Our guide to safely isolating an appliance walks you through it.
- An error code tells you where to look, not that it's safe to take the dishwasher apart. Don't remove panels or covers to get at the parts it points to: that's an engineer's job.
- If it involves the mains supply, sealed parts, or you're not confident at any point, stop and book a qualified engineer rather than risk injury or further damage.
