Error Code Explained
What Does the Wolf DRAIN ERR Error Code Mean?
A Wolf Convection Steam Oven condensate drain fault indicates the system used to remove condensate water from the oven cavity has failed — either the condensate collection tray is full and not emptying, or the drain pump or valve has failed. Water may accumulate at the bottom of the oven cavity.
