Dishwasher Bumper, Bushing, Grommet Parts

The Hinge Bushing is an OEM component for Bosch dishwasher models. This bushing acts as a guide and support component for the dishwasher door hinge assembly. It facilitates smooth and quiet opening and closing of the door.

Symptoms of a bad hinge bushing include:

• noise or squeaking coming from the door hinges 
• excess play or looseness feeling in the hinge movement
• difficulty fully closing or opening the dishwasher door

Causes of a bad hinge bushing can be normal wear and tear over the life of the appliance. Small metal particles embedded in the bushing material during manufacturing may also cause premature wear.

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

This replacement switch cam interfaces with a lever or knob to actuate a microswitch. It restores reliable on/off signaling and the positive feel/engagement of the related control or latch mechanism when the original cam wears or cracks.

• Translates lever or rotary motion into precise switch activation
• Ensures the switch travels fully to open and close as intended
• A worn or broken cam can cause intermittent operation or functions that won't start/stop as expected
• Helps bring back a defined "click" or detent at the control/lever

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing; turn off gas/water if applicable
• Access the switch or latch assembly; remove any knob, trim, or cover as needed
• Note the cam's orientation/indexing before removal; take photos for reference and transfer any springs/clips
• After reassembly, manually test the mechanism to ensure smooth switch actuation before restoring power

This hinge cup mounts at the lower front corner of the dishwasher tub to cradle the door hinge arm as the door pivots. Replacing a worn cup restores smooth, quiet door operation and helps prevent hinge misalignment.

• Supports the door hinge arm where it meets the tub frame
• Provides a smooth pivot point to reduce friction and wear
• Helps keep the door aligned and opening/closing evenly
• Failure signs can include creaking, binding, or the door dropping abruptly; visible wear or cracking on the cup

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing
• Support the door and relieve hinge spring tension as needed
• Remove the toe panel/kickplate to access the hinge area
• Install the cup and ensure the hinge arm seats fully; test door movement before reassembly

This rubber grommet provides a protective seal where hoses, wires or components pass through openings, helping prevent chafing and moisture intrusion. Use it to restore a tight fit and reduce wear at the penetration point. What it does:

• Seals and cushions openings to help prevent water leaks and air gaps.
• Protects wiring and hoses from rubbing on sharp metal edges that can cause wear or shorts.
• Reduces vibration and rattling by holding parts securely in place.
• Common symptoms of failure: visible cracking, missing or torn grommet, water dripping near the opening, or rubbing noises.

• Disconnect power to the appliance and turn off water supply before beginning any repair.
• Remove the access panel or boot as needed to reach the opening; press the grommet into the hole until fully seated.
• Inspect surrounding seals, hoses and wiring; replace any damaged components to prevent repeat issues.

This rubber grommet cushions and seals appliance components to reduce vibration and prevent wear. It replaces a worn or torn grommet to restore proper fit and quiet operation. What it does:

• Cushions metal-to-metal contact to reduce noise and vibration.
• Helps secure hoses, wiring, or panels where mounted through a hole.
• Prevents chafing and protects components from abrasion.
• Common symptom: rattling, rubbing sounds, or visible rubber deterioration.

• Turn off power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Remove necessary panels or components to access the damaged grommet; note fastener locations for reassembly.
• Press or push the grommet into the mounting hole until fully seated; some installations may require a flat tool to ease placement.
• If grommet secures wiring or hoses, verify routing and clearance before restoring power.

This spacer positions and supports the appliance tank/tub assembly to maintain proper alignment and spacing for reliable operation. Replaces a worn or damaged spacer to restore correct fit and reduce movement. What it does:

• Keeps the tank/tub assembly correctly spaced and aligned with the cabinet and mounting points
• Helps prevent rubbing, binding, and excess vibration caused by a missing or damaged spacer
• Restores proper clearance to support seals and hoses that rely on correct tank positioning
• Useful when reassembling the appliance after service or repair

• One spacer

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair
• Access may require removal of outer panels, console, or access covers depending on model
• Handle parts carefully to avoid damaging surrounding seals and wiring; reuse fasteners unless replacement is specified

This cam timer is the mechanical control that sequences an appliance's cycles, restoring correct timing and function when the control knob stops advancing. Replace a worn or stuck timer to recover proper cycle progression and operation. What it does:

• Advances cycle stages by rotating cams that open and close control contacts
• Sends timed signals to motors, switches and circuits to start and stop functions
• Common symptom: cycles won't advance or unit stays stuck in one cycle
• Common symptom: timer won't turn or control knob feels loose/slips

• One replacement cam timer assembly

• Disconnect power before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Access usually requires removing the control console or rear panel; use proper tools
• Note original timer position and knob alignment before removal for correct reassembly
• Test appliance through a full cycle after installation to ensure proper operation

This spacer fits between tank components to maintain proper spacing and alignment, helping reduce vibration and wear. Use this genuine replacement to restore correct clearances and improve stability in the appliance's tank assembly. What it does:

• Positions and separates tank parts to maintain correct alignment during operation
• Helps reduce noise and vibration caused by misaligned components
• Prevents metal-to-metal contact that can cause premature wear or damage
• Restores factory clearances after service or replacement of tank parts

• One spacer

• Designed for direct replacement; use the OEM mounting location and orientation
• Disconnect power and water (if applicable) before beginning repair
• If fasteners or surrounding components are worn or damaged, replace them to ensure a secure fit
