Bosch dishwasher E07: mineral-drying fan
Evidence linked to this decision
View source: Bosch US dishwasher error codesRisk level
Medium
Proceed carefully and stop if the check is unclear.
Urgency
High
Quick answer
E07 means the mineral-drying fan motor was not confirmed operating. Let the appliance cool, isolate power and follow the model manual; most heating faults require service.
Safety first
Stop and check this first
- Stop for overheating, steam leakage, electrical smell, breaker trips or repeated heating codes. Never expose or energise a heater outside its housing.
Safe checks you can perform
- Allow a complete cool-down
- Use only the code-specific safe action
- Record heating and drying symptoms
Leave these tasks to a qualified professional
- Do not attempt this professional task: Diagnose the thermal and circulation system
What a technician must be able to justify
Technician visit
These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.
These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.
Diagnose the thermal and circulation system
What they doA technician should test circulation, enclosed heater, sensors, fan, mineral chamber and control against E-number data.
Before accepting a part or repair
Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.
Follow these steps
Note: Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.
Allow a complete cool-down
Stop the programme, keep the door closed until steam and hot water settle, then isolate power at a dry supply.
Stop for overheating, steam leakage, electrical smell, breaker trips or repeated heating codes. Never expose or energise a heater outside its housing.

Use only the code-specific safe action
For E12 follow the model's approved descaling instructions; for airflow codes move dishes away from the visible vent after cooling.
Stop for overheating, steam leakage, electrical smell, breaker trips or repeated heating codes. Never expose or energise a heater outside its housing.

Record heating and drying symptoms
Note whether water remained cold, drying stopped or unusual noise occurred, without opening the base or side panels.
Stop for overheating, steam leakage, electrical smell, breaker trips or repeated heating codes. Never expose or energise a heater outside its housing.

What it means
Bosch's official United States dishwasher table associates E07 with a defective fan motor in the mineral drying system. This page is restricted to Bosch dishwashers: the same code on a washer, dryer or another appliance can mean something else, and the exact E-number and manual decide compatibility.

Symptoms and causes
Probable causes · in order
- Heat, circulation or drying airflow is restrictedConfirmed
Scale, a blocked hydraulic path, obstructed air opening or abnormal circulation can prevent the expected temperature or drying response.
Evidence: Bosch US dishwasher error codes
- A heater, pump, fan, sensor or control circuit is faultyPossible
Several installed components share the thermal process, so the display does not identify one replaceable part.
