Error code i20 on the Electrolux EI24ID50QS 24 in Built-In Dishwasher with IQ-Touch Controls 44 dBA means: Drain Issue — Not Draining Properly. The dishwasher is not draining within the allowed time. Water remains in the tub after the drain cycle. Check the drain hose for kinks — follow it from the dishwasher to the sink drain or garbage disposal. If connected to a garbage disposal, ensure the knockout plug has been removed from inside the disposal inlet. Clean the drain filter assembly at the bottom of the tub — food particles and debris clog the filter. Verify the drain hose has a high loop (rises to the underside of the countertop before descending) to prevent backflow. Test the drain pump motor for continuity.
