# Hobart 032: the booster did not fill in time

Every LXn cycle starts by filling the booster.

## What 032 actually means.

Every LXn cycle starts by filling the booster. If the level is not reached in time, the screen reads Fill error, inspect incoming water line with 032. Hobart asks for the supply valve, the fill hose and the water pressure to be checked first.

What to do when 032 shows on the commercial appliance

### Kind of code Water, fill and drain

Water is not arriving, not reaching its level, not heating or not leaving on time. A dish machine may be short of fill because a supply valve is half closed or its line strainer is clogged, it may drain slowly through a scrap basket full of debris, or its booster may be too scaled to heat the rinse; a combi's steam generator may be scaled or its water treatment exhausted; a washer-extractor may time out on a slow drain. Opening the supply valve, cleaning strainers with the unit off and checking the drain line are fair; a pump, a fill valve, a heater or a leak near wiring is a visit.

### Usually leads to Dish machine repair

Undercounter, door-type and conveyor dish machines: tank heaters, boosters, wash pumps, fill and drain valves.

### Shows up as Commercial Appliance Error Code on a Combi, Fryer, Dish Machine or Laundry Display

A commercial appliance error code appears as letters or numbers on a combi, fryer, reach-in controller, dish machine or laundry machine display, or as a flashing light or an alarm tone.

### Make Hobart

A Hobart dish machine that stops holding its rinse heat is usually seen right after the lunch racks clear, so the tank can drain and cool.

Hobart LXn and LXGn undercounter machines (LXnC, LXnH, LXnR, LXGnPR, LXGnR) with the touchscreen control, per instructions manual F41243. AM16, CL and FT2000 machines use their own displays and are not covered by this chart.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from Hobart's own guidance for 032 on its commercial appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Make sure the water supply valve under or behind the machine is fully open.

02

Straighten the fill hose if it is kinked or crushed behind the machine.

03

Press ENTER to clear the message and let the machine try again.

04

If 032 returns, have the water pressure checked and book a visit for the fill valve.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [dish machine repair](https://commercialappliancerepair.center/services/dish-machine-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

032 is not a slow booster heater; that is 003. It also differs from 033, where the fill valve stays open too long rather than the tank filling too slowly.

## What you may notice with it.

For the heart of your home.

## Questions about 032.

### Can I clear 032 myself?

Make sure the water supply valve under or behind the machine is fully open. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### What water pressure does a Hobart LXn need?

Hobart lists 15 to 65 psi at the incoming line. Pressure below that range fills too slowly, and a plumber can fit a regulator or booster pump if the building supply is outside it.

### Can a clogged filter on the water line cause 032?

Yes, a water treatment cartridge or inlet screen that is due for change slows the fill the same way a half-closed valve does.

### Why does 032 show only when the kitchen is busy?

Other fixtures on the same line can pull the pressure down at peak times. The pattern is worth mentioning when you book the visit.
