Customer Questions and Answers for Hinge Cable by Bosch

The Hinge Cable is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. It plays an essential role in the mechanism that controls the movement of the dishwasher door, allowing it to open and close smoothly and safely. This cable connects the door to the spring, providing the necessary tension and support to prevent the door from slamming shut or dropping open too quickly, which can be hazardous and potentially cause damage.

Symptoms of a failing Hinge Cable include:

• The dishwasher door suddenly dropping open
• Difficulty in opening or closing the door smoothly
• The door feeling unusually heavy or not staying in place when opened
• A snapping sound when trying to open or close the door, indicating a potential break

Causes of a bad hinge cable often involve fraying or snapping due to the constant tension and movement, general wear from frequent use, or corrosion from exposure to moisture and detergents.

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore models.
