Symptom / Description

FAULT

Faure FDF Series / Clean&Dry / MaxiWash Dishwasher: Pressure sensor zero calibration error at cycle start i44; sensor fails to establish atmospheric zero reference.

TELEMETRY // LIVESIG: FAULT_DETECTED

Root Cause

ROOT CAUSE

On Faure (Faure FDF Series / Clean&Dry / MaxiWash Dishwasher) models: Water remaining in tub from previous cancelled cycle, pressure sensor pipe holding hydraulic head, or drifted sensor calibration.

CIRCUIT // SUBSYSTEMLOGIC: ROOT_ISOLATED

Repair Instructions

UNLOCKED

1Bail out all standing water from sump with a sponge. Blow gently into pressure sensor rubber hose to equalize pressure. Press and hold Départ/Pause and Annulation buttons for 6 seconds until all status indicators flash synchronously and clear fault memory.

1. Pre-Intervention Electrical Safety Protocols

!Electrical Safety Protocol: Cut 230V mains power before accessing the upper chassis or pressure switch terminals.
!Drain appliance tub completely before disconnecting pressure switch sensing hoses.
!Never blow high-pressure compressed air into electronic analog pressure sensors: internal diaphragms will rupture!

3. Preliminary Mechanical & Visual Checks

Disconnect the silicone pressure tube from the lower air trap and inspect for soap sludge, lint, or water blockage.
Inspect the flexible rubber hose along its entire length for pinholes, cracks, or loose clamp fit.
Thoroughly flush the lower compression chamber (air dome) with hot water to dissolve detergent buildup.

Frequently Asked Questions: Faure I44

FAQ TREE

What does error code I44 mean on a Faure appliance?

Faure error code I44 indicates: Faure FDF Series / Clean&Dry / MaxiWash Dishwasher: Pressure sensor zero calibration error at cycle start i44; sensor fails to establish atmospheric zero reference..

What is the root cause of Faure error code I44?

The primary root cause for Faure code I44 is: On Faure (Faure FDF Series / Clean&Dry / MaxiWash Dishwasher) models: Water remaining in tub from previous cancelled cycle, pressure sensor pipe holding hydraulic head, or drifted sensor calibration..

How do I fix or resolve Faure error code I44?

To resolve error code I44: Bail out all standing water from sump with a sponge. Blow gently into pressure sensor rubber hose to equalize pressure. Press and hold Départ/Pause and Annulation buttons for 6 seconds until all status indicators flash synchronously and clear fault memory.

Is it safe to clear Faure error code I44 by resetting power?

Resetting power (unplugging for 5–10 minutes) clears temporary memory errors. However, if Faure code I44 persists, the physical component causing On Faure (Faure FDF Series / Clean&Dry / MaxiWash Dishwasher) models: Water remaining in tub from previous cancelled cycle, pressure sensor pipe holding hydraulic head, or drifted sensor calibration. must be inspected or replaced.

How do I test electrical resistance for Faure code I44 using a multimeter?

Set a digital multimeter to ohms (Ω). Disconnect power and test Mechanical Pressure Switch Contacts / Inductive Frequency Sensor across Across switch spade contacts with harness unplugged; electronic output: 40Hz–50Hz frequency signal. Expected nominal reading is Mechanical: Continuity 0.0Ω–0.2Ω (Empty: 11-12, Full: 11-14). Electronic: 20Ω–45Ω coil resistance.. Tolerance: Mechanical switch contacts must transition cleanly on gentle breath pressure. Coil ~22Ω ±5%..

What safety protocol must be followed before servicing Faure code I44?

Standard electrical safety protocol: 1. Disconnect 230V mains power before opening panels. 2. Verify zero voltage at test points. 3. Allow hot water or heating elements to cool below 30°C before handling.
