Bosch Dishwasher Fuse Or Sensor

NTC (negative temperature coefficient). Resistance or capacitance decreases when temperature increases.

The Temperature Sensor with Hi Limit Thermistor is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. This sensor monitors internal temperatures, providing feedback to the control module during each cycle.

Causes of failure can be related to mineral buildup over time interfering with sensing or physical damage to wiring or connectors.

Symptoms of a bad temperature sensor include:

• Abnormal or inconsistent wash temperatures
• Error codes related to temperature issues
• Reduced cleaning performance from improper heating

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

This turbidity sensor detects how clear the dishwasher's wash water is so the control can adjust cycle time, rinses, and water changes. Replacing a faulty sensor helps restore proper cleaning performance and normal cycle lengths.

• Monitors soil level/clarity of the wash water
• Signals the control to extend or shorten wash and rinse phases as needed
• Helps optimize water use while maintaining cleaning results
• Failure symptoms can include unusually long or short cycles, poor cleaning, repeated draining/refilling, or cycles that won't advance

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Pull the dishwasher out as needed; access the sensor from the base area
• Place a towel to catch residual water; release the locking tab or twist-lock, unplug the connector, and install the new sensor fully seated and locked
• Restore power/water and run a test cycle; check for leaks

PTC

This replacement thermostat regulates an appliance's temperature by switching the cooling/heating element or compressor on and off as needed. Restores proper temperature cycling to help maintain consistent performance and food safety. What it does:

• Senses cabinet temperature and signals the compressor/heater to run or stop
• Helps maintain set temperature and prevent long run cycles or short cycling
• Common symptom fix: appliance running continuously or failing to reach/hold temperature
• Common symptom fix: inconsistent temperatures or frequent on/off cycling

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock; if in a sealed refrigeration circuit,
• Handle terminals and wiring carefully; match connector orientation and secure all electrical connections
• before installation
