Quick answer

C4 reports an overfilled Kenmore 363 electronic control dishwasher. The manual has owners cancel the cycle and see whether it drains.

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so C4 may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.

Plain language

What this code means

The dishwasher is overfilled.

C4 means a Kenmore 363 electronic control dishwasher has taken on too much water. The manual’s first move is a simple one: cancel the cycle.

What happens after you cancel

The result decides the next step.

  • It does not drain: follow the troubleshooting for the C3 will-not-drain code.
