WHAT THE CODE MEANS
Message text in the appliance display: “Tank empty” appears ........... 20
That heading is the manufacturer's own wording for E5121. What it does not tell you is which part actually failed — on Bosch wall oven models the same code can be set by more than one component, so work through the checks below before you book anyone. If the code clears and stays gone, you are done; if it returns, it needs a meter on it.
SAFE CHECKS — IN ORDER
How to diagnose Bosch E5121 yourself
Walk these checks in order before scheduling service. They isolate the most common causes safely without requiring tools or part replacements.
- 1Power-cycle the appliance: unplug for 60 seconds, then plug back in and re-test.
- 2Inspect any visible wiring near the area indicated by the code (check the service manual for component locations).
- 3Confirm the door, lid, or latch is fully closed and the safety switch is making contact.
- 4Check that hoses, drains, and inlet filters are clear of obstructions and lint or mineral buildup.
- 5If the code clears briefly but returns, log the cycle/conditions where it appears for the technician.
