What 035
actually means.

The scrap basket sits in the strainer pan and must be locked with its arrow lined up with the arrow on the pan. When it is missing or loose, the LXn shows Ensure tank strainer is locked in place with 035. The message clears by itself once the basket is seated correctly.

What to do when 035 shows on the commercial appliance

Kind of codeWater, 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.

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

Shows up asCommercial 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.

MakeHobart

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.

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Hobart's own guidance for 035 on its commercial appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Switch off and let the water cool if you need to reach into the tank.

02

Seat the scrap basket in the strainer pan and turn it until the two arrows line up.

03

Watch the message clear on its own once the basket locks.

04

Book a visit if 035 stays with the basket locked, since the basket sensor may need checking.

Still there?

It usually turns into dish machine repair. Book with the code and the model number.

What not to do

035 is not a clogged strainer; that is 019. It clears without ENTER, so a 035 that stays is a sensing problem rather than a staff one.

Where 035 usually leads

Dish machine repair.

Dish machine tank heater or booster element, thermostat, fill valve, float switch, drain valve, wash pump seal or motor, conveyor drive · moderate.

In Hobart's own words

Questions
about 035.

Can I clear 035 myself?
Switch off and let the water cool if you need to reach into the tank. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
Where does the scrap basket go on a Hobart LXn?
In the strainer pan at the bottom of the wash tank, turned until its arrow matches the arrow on the pan.
Why does 035 show right after cleaning?
The basket went back in but was not turned to the locked position. Line up the arrows and the message clears.
Can I run the Hobart without the scrap basket?
No. The control will not clear 035 without it, and the basket keeps soil out of the pump.

Back to your everyday

Still showing 035?

A booking with a code goes further when it has the code as shown, the model and serial from the data plate, and a word on whether the unit still holds temperature, heats, rinses or spins. With those three, the office can match the likely part to your unit the same day.
