Hoover Extended Cycle Time / Heating or Sensor Issue

Dishwasher runs for an unusually long time or never seems to finish the cycle.

This repair may involve working with high voltage components or water connections. Always unplug the appliance before removing any panels.

If you are not confident in your ability to perform this repair safely, we strongly recommend contacting a professional technician.

Possible Causes

Water not heating properly, Faulty NTC sensor, Low inlet water temperature, Sensor contamination

Safety first: Disconnect the dishwasher from power before testing electrical components.

Check water heating: After 20–30 minutes of a hot program, carefully open the door. If the water is still cold, investigate the heater and NTC as described for E05/E11.
Clean sensors: Grease and limescale on the NTC or turbidity sensor can affect readings. Clean the sump area thoroughly.
Use hot feed if available: If your Hoover model allows, connect to a hot water supply to reduce heating time (within specified temperature limits).
Replace faulty components: If the heater and NTC are defective, replace the heater assembly or NTC sensor accordingly.
