• Prevents water leaks caused by a faulty or loose latch
• Commonly used when the door won't stay closed, the cycle won't start, or the door feels loose

• Disconnect power and water supply before replacing the latch to avoid shock or unintended operation.
• Access typically requires opening the door inner panel; use proper tools to avoid damage to the door or trim.
• Retain all screws and hardware during disassembly; replace only the parts explicitly included unless other damage is found.

This replacement seal restores a tight, leak-resistant connection between mating components inside your appliance. Replacing a worn seal helps stop drips at the joint and keeps the system operating reliably without nuisance leak faults.

• Forms a compressible barrier between parts to prevent leakage at a connection point
• Helps protect nearby components from moisture intrusion and corrosion
• Typical failure signs: moisture around a joint, puddling beneath the unit, or leak/overflow error messages
• Replace if the original is cracked, flattened, cut, brittle, or missing

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Access the connection, note the seal's orientation, and remove the old seal
• Clean mating surfaces; lightly moisten the new seal and seat it evenly without twisting or pinching
• Reassemble and test for leaks before reinstalling covers or panels

The Temperature regulator is an OEM replacement part for Bosch dryers. It is a temperature-sensitive resistor located inside the dryer cabinet that monitors air temperatures throughout drying cycles. The thermistor provides continuous feedback to the control board.

Causes of a faulty thermistor tend to involve gradual sensor drift or physical damage due to extensive exposure to moisture fluctuations and mechanical vibrations inside the drum. Mineral scale buildup could also interfere with resistance readings over time.

Symptoms comprise:

• Inability for the temperature regulator to accurately detect sleeve air temperature
• Fluctuating or inconsistent drying temperatures between loads
• Thermal runaway triggering high-limit cut-offs or error codes
• Prolonged drying times stemming from control faults

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

The Dryer Lint Filter is an OEM component specifically designed for Bosch dryers. Located inside the dryer door, it prevents lint and other debris from escaping into the surrounding area.
