How to Fix F7E5 Error (Step-by-Step)
- Turn off the power to the dishwasher at the circuit breaker and shut off the hot water supply valve under the sink.
- To access the bottom of the unit, carefully slide the dishwasher out from under the countertop.
- Gently lay the dishwasher on its back on a towel or blanket to protect the floor and the unit.
- Locate the diverter motor, also known as a shifter or actuator, which is mounted on the side of the sump assembly at the bottom.
