Dishwasher stops mid-cycle and shows E07; sometimes water remains in the base of the tub.

Safety first: Disconnect power before accessing internal components.

E07 can indicate a problem with the drying system or a restriction in the drain area, depending on the Siemens model.

• Step 1 – Check for standing water:
  • Open the door and inspect the bottom of the tub.
  • If water is present, remove and clean the filter assembly and drain cover.
  • Use a sponge to remove excess water and check for foreign objects in the sump.
• Step 2 – Inspect drain path:
  • Check the drain hose for kinks or clogs.
  • Ensure the hose is not installed too high above the dishwasher (follow installation manual).
• Step 3 – Drying fan (if equipped):
  • On models with a side-mounted drying fan, remove the side panel to access the fan housing.
  • Inspect the fan outlet and channels for lint or debris.
  • Spin the fan by hand to ensure it moves freely.
• Step 4 – Electrical check:
  • Verify the fan connector is secure.
  • If the fan does not run during the drying phase and E07 appears, the fan motor may be defective.
• Step 5 – Replacement:
  • Replace the drying fan assembly or clear any obstructions in the drain sump as indicated by your findings.

If you are unsure whether your model uses E07 for fan or drain issues, consult the user manual or Siemens service documentation.
