Error code FCE2 (12-2)
Appliance Dishwasher
Quick answer

FCE2, also shown as 12-2, means the Kenmore MicroClean HE dishwasher has no link to the wireless router.

Model compatibility

Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so FCE2 (12-2) 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

No link to the wireless router.

A Kenmore MicroClean HE dishwasher that displays FCE2 (or 12-2) has no link to the wireless router. The dishwasher’s Wi-Fi module has not been connected to your home network.

The fix in the owner’s manual

The manual’s instruction is short: follow the directions in your owner’s manual to link the dishwasher’s Wi-Fi module to your home’s wireless router. Nothing else is listed for this code, so the pairing steps in that manual are where to begin.

Related Wi-Fi codes

  • FCE1: the control board and Wi-Fi module are not communicating.
  • FCE3: linked to the router, but the router has no internet.
  • FCE5: the Wi-Fi antenna has failed.
