Dishwasher displays E7 and may stop shortly after starting the wash, sometimes with no water circulation.

Safety first: Disconnect the appliance from mains power and close the water tap.

• Check for debris: Remove the filters and inspect the sump area. Some Gorenje models allow limited access to the circulation pump impeller from inside the tub; remove any foreign objects.
• Listen for pump noise: Start a cycle and listen. A humming noise without water movement suggests a jammed or failed pump.
• Access the pump: Lay the dishwasher on its back and remove the bottom panel. Locate the circulation pump attached to the sump or heater assembly.
• Inspect wiring and connectors: Ensure the pump connector is secure and free from burn marks or corrosion.
• Manual rotation: Try to rotate the pump impeller by hand (with power off). If it is stiff or seized, the pump must be replaced.

Replacing the circulation pump involves working in a confined space with water connections; if you are not experienced, seek professional service.
