Beko E07 fault codewhat it means and how to fix it

Get it checkedDishwasherBeko dishwashers whose manual carries the error code tableLast reviewed

Flowmeter faulty. The machine has lost its way of counting water, which is why Beko want the valve closed.

Take care

Some of this is safe to check yourself, but the repair itself is not. If the fault comes back after one reset, stop resetting it and get a qualified appliance engineer to look at the Beko properly.

What E07 means

E07 is a faulty flowmeter, and it is the fourth and last code Beko document. The flowmeter is a small paddle in the fill path that spins as water passes and lets the control board count how much has gone in. It is not a component most people have heard of, but it is how a modern dishwasher knows when to stop filling. Which explains why Beko attach their strongest instruction to it. Their solution is identical to the one for the flood code: error algorithm activated, cycle ends, and if the error continues, cut off the electricity, close the valve, contact the authorised service. Only two of Beko’s four codes carry that isolation sequence, and both are about water arriving in quantities the machine cannot account for. A machine that cannot count water has lost its primary defence against overfilling. There are usually backstops — a pressure switch, a float in the base — but they are backstops, and Beko clearly do not want you relying on them while the machine sits plumbed into the mains under your worktop. Closing the valve removes the risk entirely and costs nothing.

What causes it

Causes of the Beko E07 fault code, most common first
CauseWhat is actually happeningHow likely
Flowmeter failedThe literal reading. The paddle or its sensor has stopped producing a usable signal.Common
Flowmeter jammed by debris or scaleGrit from the mains or limescale stopping the paddle turning freely, so the board sees no flow even though water is arriving.Common
Wiring or connector faultThe signal not reaching the board rather than the meter failing. Cheaper if that is what it turns out to be.Occasional
Control board faultThe board failing to read a meter that is working. Needs the machine open to distinguish.Occasional

Common questions about Beko E07

Why does Beko want the water off for a sensor fault?

Because of what this particular sensor does. The flowmeter is how the machine counts water going in, so without it the machine has lost its main way of knowing when to stop filling. There are backstops, but Beko plainly do not want you depending on them. Closing the valve is free and removes the risk.

Is it safe to run in the meantime?

Beko say to cut off the electricity and close the valve if the error keeps appearing, and that is the answer. A dishwasher runs unattended, often overnight, plumbed straight into the mains. This is not a fault to work around.

What is a flowmeter?

A small paddle in the fill path that spins as water goes past. Counting the turns tells the control board how much water has entered. Simple, cheap, and the machine is largely blind without it.

What shows on a machine with no display?

Beko specify P2 flashing along with F1 and F2.
