For Bosch US CrystalDry guidance, E07 concerns the zeolite drying fan. A successful drain does not contradict that code meaning; a drain-pump repair is not established by E07 alone.
Bosch US dishwasher code guidance for the displayed code. Match the full E-Nr and its own manual; the same short number in another appliance category, market or generation must not be assumed equivalent.
Stop and isolate power before permitted user maintenance, and let water cool. Watch for sharp debris. Do not reach blindly into a sump, open electrical panels or use drain-opening chemicals. Stay clear of water near electrical equipment.
Compare the behavior
A drying-system warning can occur even when the dishwasher drains normally. Report both observations; successful draining does not rule out the CrystalDry fault described by Bosch.
| Observed state | Interpretation / next step |
|---|---|
| Water drains normally | Does not rule out a drying-fan fault. |
| CrystalDry model confirmed | US E07 fan guidance is relevant. |
| Different or uncertain platform | Confirm exact code applicability with Bosch. |
Code-specific checks
Match the drying platform and the drain observation
Record the full model and confirm its drying system from the exact specification or manual. Codes can differ across appliance types, countries and generations. If your model is not covered by the CrystalDry guidance, ask Bosch to confirm the code meaning. Note whether water leaves normally, when E07 appears and whether the program completes. Do not repeatedly run cycles merely to prove the drain works. A normal drain and a drying-system fault can occur together.
Do not turn a vent observation into disassembly
When stopped and cool, compare loading with the exact manual’s vent-clearance instructions. Record an obvious obstructing item without opening the drying assembly. The code does not authorize cleaning or handling the zeolite container, removing the built-in machine or forcing a fan.
Prepare a useful service report
Bosch’s code guide provides a limited power-reset route followed by support if unresolved. Supply E07, E-Nr, selected cycle, when it stops and the separate drain observation. Ask service to diagnose the matched drying system rather than ordering a drain pump because an unrelated online code list used the word “drain.”
If the warning returns
Confirm CrystalDry applicability → record drying fault and normal drain separately → use Bosch service route.
When to stop and get help
Only carry out maintenance permitted in your model’s manual. For service, note the full model number and suffix, displayed code, selected cycle and what happened during the checks. Leave internal wiring, gas components, pumps and safety devices to a qualified professional. A symptom alone does not identify a failed part.
