What F7 E3
actually means.
F7 E3 is the one code in KitchenAid's water group that names the water filter rather than a sensor. The control has decided the filter needs attention.

What to do when F7 E3 shows on the ovenKind of codeSteam and water
The steam oven found its water tank empty, its supply short, or its steam generator slowed by scale. Refilling and seating the tank and running the descaling program come first; a pump, a level sensor or the generator is looked at only after that.

A steam or combi-steam oven that makes no steam, weak steam or asks for water it already has, traced to scale, the pump, the generator or the tank sensor.
