Error codeF56
ApplianceDishwasher
What F56 stands for
The circulation pump moves water around the wash chamber, and F56 is how Asko reports a fault with it. DBI664 XXL and DBI564 series manuals include the code.
Reset described in the DBI565 manual
Close the water supply.
Unplug the dishwasher and wait 60 seconds.
Plug it in again and open the water supply.
Start any dishwashing program.
If F56 reappears, leave further work to a technician.
Not to be confused with
F68: concerns the drain pump, not the circulation pump
Phone (415) 993-3547 for an Asko dishwasher technician in San Francisco and the Bay Area. Give them the F56 code, your model number and whether the reset was done. Read more about Asko dishwasher repair here.
Model compatibility: Asko reuses codes across series and model years, so F56 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What this code means

Important safety warning. Do not attempt repairs involving electrical components, water lines, sealed cooling systems or anything behind a panel. Unplug the appliance if it is safe to reach the outlet, and leave internal diagnostics to a qualified technician.
