F8E1 on a Maytag dishwasher is an inlet water code for no water or a closed tap.
What this code means
F8E1
F8E1 means inlet water: no water or the tap is closed.
In the Maytag technical manual, F8E1 sits under inlet water faults and reads: no water, or the tap is closed. The dishwasher is not getting water in.
What the listing covers
Since the entry itself mentions a closed tap, the water supply valve under the sink is the obvious thing for an owner to look at. The manual entry offers no further owner steps, so a code that stays after that is one for a technician.
