Parts for Bosch SHE53TF2UC/02: Control Panel Parts

The Affresh Dishwasher Cleaner is an OEM accessory designed specifically for Whirlpool brand dishwashers. This citrus-scented tablet removes residue, odor-causing soils, and food particles from the dishwasher tub and gasket area during the cleaning cycle. Symptoms of a buildup include unwanted odors emanating from the dishwasher, especially after opening the door. Over time, residue and grime accumulate in hard-to-reach areas and provide an environment for mold and mildew growth.

Regular cleaning helps prevent this by removing leftover soils before they harden or encourage bacterial activity. The Affresh tablet utilizes a unique blend of cleaning ingredients that target soils and biofilms through a combination of powerful scrubbing action and natural cleaning enzymes.

As the #1 recommended dishwasher cleaner brand, Affresh is also compatible for use in Maytag, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and select Kenmore dishwashers for consistent cleanliness and freshness. The package includes six tablets 4.2 ounces

The Control Unit is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. It contains the electronic components responsible for operating and monitoring all dishwasher functions and cycles.

Causes of a bad control unit can be normal wear and tear, exposed electrical components damaged by moisture ingress, or sudden failure of internal circuits/chips.

Symptoms of a bad control unit include:

• The dishwasher failing to start or run cycles properly
• Lights, displays, or buttons not functioning correctly
• Inability to select or change wash cycles and options
• Strange smells or sounds coming from the control area

The On/Off Switch is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. This switch controls the power to the dishwasher, allowing the user to turn the appliance on and off. It is typically located on the control panel and is essential for initiating and halting the wash cycles.

Causes of a bad On/Off switch can include wear and tear from regular use, electrical malfunctions, or physical damage such as cracks or breaks. When the switch fails, it can prevent the dishwasher from powering on or off correctly, disrupting the appliance's functionality.

Symptoms of a bad On/Off switch include:

• Dishwasher not turning on
• Difficulty in turning the dishwasher off
• The switch feeling loose or unresponsive
• Flickering power or intermittent operation

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

This seal creates a tight, leak-proof interface between mating components inside your appliance. Replacing a worn seal helps stop drips and protects nearby parts for reliable, leak-free operation.

• Forms a watertight barrier between connected parts
• Replaces cracked, flattened, or deformed sealing material that can leak
• Helps address puddling, dampness, or seepage around the unit
• Maintains proper performance and helps prevent water damage to surrounding components

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Access the sealed joint and note the original orientation and seating depth
• Clean mating surfaces; do not use sealants unless specified by the manufacturer
• Seat the new seal evenly; lightly lubricate with a water-safe lubricant and run a test cycle to check for leaks

This facia panel is the exterior control trim that covers and protects the appliance's control area while restoring a finished look. Replaces damaged, cracked, or worn panels to improve appearance and protect internal controls. What it does:

• Covers the control area and provides the finished front surface for buttons and display
• Protects the control board and switches from spills and debris
• Restores a clean, undamaged appearance after impact or wear
• Helps ensure buttons and touch areas align correctly with controls

• Disconnect power before starting any repair to avoid shock or injury
• Remove surrounding trim and control access panels to reach mounting screws; handle carefully to avoid scratching
• Take care aligning tabs and fasteners during reassembly so buttons and display align properly

This push button set replaces worn, cracked, or missing control panel buttons to restore the appliance's appearance and button feel. It provides a like-for-like replacement for damaged push-style controls so you can operate functions reliably. What it does:

• Replaces broken, stuck, or missing push-style control buttons on the control panel
• Restores tactile feedback and correct button spacing for accurate operation
• Helps resolve intermittent or unresponsive button presses caused by physical damage
• Matches original fit and function for straightforward replacement

• Disconnect power to the appliance before beginning any repair
• Access typically requires removing the control panel or control console; keep screws and fasteners organized
• Handle plastic buttons carefully to avoid cracking or warping during installation

The Wire Harness is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch dishwashers requiring electrical connections between moving components. It facilitates signal and current pathways throughout appliance frames.

Reinforced flexing sections bend without kinks accommodating shifting door movements. While connector joints remain snug against jostling. This daisy chain design simplifies diagnostics and maintenance procedures compared to individual wiring. 

Symptoms signaling the need for a new harness include:

• Intermittent cycle malfunctions indicating loose or corroded connections  
• Broken or cracked housing exposing live conductors to shorting hazards
• Overly taut sections hindering the intended range of component motions

Causes relate to prolonged abrasion stresses and water damage compromising insulation throughout thousands of cycles. Physical damage during repairs may require a complete replacement of this integral wiring backbone.

This OEM Bosch replacement harness is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore dishwashers relying on consistent control schemes. Reinstallation restores reliable electrical pathways.
