BUBBLE ERROR CODE
Cause
Oversudsing caused by improper detergent, such as liquid dish soap.
Solution
Do not use hand dishwashing liquids.
Only use detergents which are designed for use in automatic dishwasher
Dishes with foamy food, such as whipped cream may cause a bE error.
To clear the error, turn the appliance off and start a new cycle.
To remove detergent residue in the tub, pour approximately 4 oz ~ 8 oz of milk into a shallow bowl.
Then place it in the upper rack and then run the appliance on the Auto cycle.
Cause
Failure to level dishwasher.
Solution
Make sure that the appliance is properly leveled.

POSSIBLE CAUSE
Failure to level the appliance
SOLUTION
Adjust the legs of the appliance to make the tub level. Water level should be near the center of both tub lower indentations.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
Filter / Pump clogging due to foreign matter
SOLUTION
Remove and clean foreign material in the filter / pump.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
Top Nozzle misassembled or damaged
SOLUTION
Reassemble the top nozzle or replace the nozzle.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
Nozzle – Water guide misassembled or damaged
SOLUTION
Reassemble the lower nozzle and water guide or replace the lower nozzle and water guide.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
Vario motor defect
SOLUTION
Check for vario motor defect using the test mode.
Additional information about the vario motor testing can be found in the “nE” Error article.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
Washing pump motor defect
SOLUTION
Replace the sump pump motor
When the bubbles enter the pump, the load on the pump impeller is reduced and the motor amperage is also lowered. So, the motor can be used to detect the bubbles.

I have a ldt7808ss dishwasher that was having the be error code back in October of 23’. I replaced the motor and control board and it took care of the issue until now. Which is 8 months later. Just wanting to know my next step?
Thanks Travis.
bE error is typically a detergent usage or leveling type issue. Since the two parts that on rare occasion could cause that code have been replaced it is likely not a bad part. Check further into the detergent usage and check the leveling of the unit.
Welcome.
Thank you for this tool
What leveling should we have , because if we level it straight and not tilted to the back than we might have an AE leak error code.
I have an bE error code from a 2019 dishwasher

I replaced the wash motor because it was not functioning.No more had a short this time it gives a bE Error code.
Go with the leveling as explained in the owners manual… To check that the tub is level from front to back, remove the lower rack and pour 169 oz. (5 L) of water into the bottom of the tub. The water level should be near the center of both tub lower indentations at the front.
