Quick answer
F6E7 (6-7) on a Kenmore HE, Elite HE or MicroClean HE dishwasher points to the flow meter and its wiring.
Model compatibility
Kenmore reuses codes across series and model years, so F6E7 (6-7) may mean something different on another appliance or generation. Confirm this against your model’s documentation and record your full model number before acting.
Plain language
What thiscode means
F6E7 means a disconnected or damaged flow meter (flow meter failure on MicroClean HE).
F6E7 (6-7) is the flow meter code. Kenmore HE and Kenmore Elite HE dishwashers show it on a digital display, while other models flash the Clean light in a function-problem pattern. The Kenmore MicroClean HE lists the same code too.
HE and Elite HE models
The display means the flow meter is disconnected or damaged. The manual says to shut off power to the dishwasher and check the wiring to the flow meter. If the wiring is intact, the flow meter is the part to replace.
MicroClean HE
Here the entry reads flowmeter failure. Unplug the dishwasher, then check the wiring connections from the water softener salt sensor to the flow meter and from the salt sensor to the electronic control board. Loose wires get reconnected and damaged wires repaired; if the connections are fine, the flow meter is replaced.
If the code returns, call (310) 554-8899 for Kenmore dishwasher repair in Los Angeles. Keep the model number and the exact code handy, and say which checks you have done. The dishwasher repair page has the service details.
