Siemens Siemens iQ500 fault codes
The largest range on the current UK list, and the one most likely to be showing an alternating code such as E:31-00 rather than a plain E:15. SN95 and SN25 prefixes.
Codes on the Siemens iQ500 follow the same Siemens scheme as the rest of the range. Where a code behaves differently on this generation, the code page says so.

- E20The rinsing circuit has reported a fault, and Siemens point at the circulation pump. This is the pump that drives the spray arms, not the one that empties the machine.Get it checked
- E08There is too little water in the machine for it to rinse properly, and Siemens’ first suggestion is not a repair at all — it is how you loaded it.Usually simple to fix
- E09A fault in the heating system. On these machines the element is usually built into the pump housing, which is what makes this a bigger job than it sounds.Get it checked
- E06Siemens report a faulty door sensor or faulty electronics. The door switch is what tells the machine it is safe to throw water about, so nothing runs until it is happy.Get it checked
- E07A fault in the drying system. Worth knowing what your machine uses to dry before you spend anything, because on BSH machines there are three quite different answers.Get it checked
