Customer Questions and Answers for Base Panel by Bosch

The Base Panel is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. It forms the floor structure inside the dishwasher tub on which racks and components sit.

Symptoms of a problematic base panel include:

• Sags, warps or cracks visible in the base structure
• Rack or alignment issues from compromised support
• Water leaks through deterioration points

Causes generally relate to the base panel's location low in the tub being subjected to concentrated mechanical and environmental stresses cycle after cycle. Failure to replace it risks jeopardizing dish rack stability along with bigger repair costs down the line from unchecked water leaks.

This OEM Bosch part can also be used on Thermador and Gaggenau appliances.
