Turn off the water faucet feeding the dishwasher. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### Will opening the faucet wider clear Gaggenau E:3000? No, the faucet setting has nothing to do with this number. The code says the machine's water protection has stepped in. ### Is Gaggenau E:3100 the same as E:3000? Yes, the manual gives both the same description. Turn off the water faucet and book a visit. --- **[Read on the site: Gaggenau dishwasher showing E:3000 | DishwasherRepair.center](https://dishwasherrepair.center/error-codes/gaggenau-e3000/)** **[Book a visit with DishwasherRepair.center](https://dishwasherrepair.center/schedule/)**
