## What E7 actually means.

E7 is Asko's door error, which the manual files under control unit failures.

ASKO dryer display

What to do when E7 shows on the dryer

### Kind of code Door and lock

The control cannot confirm that the door is shut, so it will not start. A worn strike or a bent latch is looked at before the door switch itself.

### Usually leads to Door switch and latch repair

A dryer that ignores the start button with its door shut, or a door that will not stay closed, fixed at the switch, catch or hinge.

### Shows up as Dryer Door Won't Latch

The door swings back open, will not stay shut, or closes but the dryer acts as if it is open.

### Make ASKO

Compact European dryers, mostly condenser and heat-pump models that dry without an outdoor vent.

### Source Asko T208H.W.U instructions for use, Failure display (PDF on the Gorenje Group document server)

Asko dryers whose failure display lists E7, such as the T208H.

## Before you book, in this order.

Each step comes from ASKO's own guidance for E7 on its dryers. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Check that the door closes fully and nothing is caught in it.

02

Cut the power for a minute, restore it, and retry the program.

03

Book a visit if E7 stays.

### Still there?

It usually turns into [door switch and latch repair](https://dryerrepair.center/services/door-switch-and-latch-repair/). Book with the code and the model number.

### What not to do

E7 is different from the text message asking you to close the door before pressing Start, which clears once the door is shut.

## What you may notice with it.

The dryer problems E7 tends to arrive with. Answer these at the dryer before anyone is booked.

## Questions about E7.

### Can I clear E7 myself?

Check that the door closes fully and nothing is caught in it. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### My Asko display says to close the door, but there is no E7; does that need a repair?

No, that message is a reminder to close the door before starting or resuming. E7 is the code that indicates a door failure.

### Can too much laundry cause door trouble on an Asko dryer without E7?

Asko notes the door can open during drying when too much laundry presses on it. Reducing the load is its fix for that, which is separate from E7.
