Parts for Bosch WTMC532CUS/05: Control Panel Parts

This is a factory-style screw used to secure appliance panels and components for a reliable, low-profile hold. It replaces worn or missing fasteners to stop rattling and keep parts aligned during normal use. What it does:

• Secures trim, panels, brackets or small components in place
• Stops loose parts that can cause rattling or vibration noises
• Restores correct fit where a missing or damaged screw allows gaps
• Works as a direct replacement when the original fastener is lost or stripped

• One screw

• Disconnect power and water before servicing the appliance
• Start the screw by hand to avoid cross-threading; use the correct driver bit
• Tighten snugly but avoid over-torquing to prevent stripping or part damage
• Keep removed hardware organized to ensure correct reassembly

This relay is an electromechanical switch that lets the appliance's control direct power to a load safely. Replacing a failed relay restores reliable on/off control and can resolve intermittent or non-working functions driven by the control.

• Receives a low-voltage signal from the control and opens/closes power to a component
• Typical signs of failure: the load won't energize, intermittent operation, repeated clicking/chatter, or visible heat damage/burning on the relay
• Can lead to symptoms like no operation of a heater, fan, or motor when the control calls for it
• Helps restore consistent switching to the affected circuit

• Disconnect power at the breaker or unplug the appliance before servicing
• Document wiring with a photo; move connectors one at a time and ensure tight, fully seated terminals
• Mount/seat the relay in the original orientation and secure any clips or screws
