How to Troubleshoot & Replace Bosch AP5691407 / 00751950 Diverter Valve

"Watertap" E15 error code indicated leaking. Dried it all out to allow it to run again. Ran dishwasher with front and bottom panels off to get a visual on leak causing the styrofoam float to set off the code. Saw it was coming from the diverter area. Ordered this assembly -- which DOES include the seal ring, by the way -- pulled dishwasher all the way out to replace it, and VOILA. No more leaking or error code. (This took a few days to analyze and receive the part, so in the meantime we were able to run the dishwasher during the day with the door and bottom panel off as long as we monitored the leak and kept some paper towels down there to soak it up.) 

Ordered the parts from appliance parts pros and they were actually the right parts and then installed them, works great now! My kids really appreciate it so they don’t have to wash the dishes by hand no more. 

I reviewed the video on the website, ordered the part, and replaced part. Your videos are great. They are easy to follow and provide excellent videos. This is the 3rd part I have replaced using AppliancePartsPros parts and videos. For this particular part, I would suggest one enhancement to your instruction video. Placing the diverter valve requires significant pressure to get the valve over the gasket. Ultimately, I used needle nose pliers to get the section right behind the sump pump to go into place as it was very difficult to get the leverage needed to push in this area of the valve part. Adding a recommended technique to squeeze the part on would be useful as water was not enough to lubricate the gasket. It took about 2 hours of pushing the part up before I thought of using needle nose pliers to squeeze the two pieces together. This took two people, one on each side to complete, but the diverter valve was in place in minutes instead of hours of unsuccessful pushing. 

Removed and replaced Diverter Valve Assembly. Reviewed AppliancePartsPros.com video. But more difficult than expected. You must move the sump pump hose from basin drain to align the diverter valve hose for re-assembly. This part was tricky. Space to work is very tight. 

Replaced the diverter valve assembly. Removed water pump prior to replacing diverter valve. Run 4 loads of dishes and no leaks. The part was the correct size and came with a new o-ring. 

I pulled out the dishwasher and found the leak. I then went to appliance parts pros and watched a couple of videos to determine what part to order. (so helpful) The diverter came in two days ahead of schedule(also so helpful) The repair was very easy(thanks to the video) and I had it back in a few minutes later. 

Watched video here to see where to look and disassemble dishwasher. Watched dishwasher run cycle and saw diverter valve leaking badly. Bought valve and watched video on how to replace it. Ordered on Thursday and it was here on Friday! What super service and exact part match! Great great company! Stopped leaking and runs great. Thank you. You guys are the best! 

I received an e15 error code while running the dishwasher. To troubleshoot, I pulled the dishwasher from under the cabinet and ran it. I saw the diverter valve part leaking water into the bottom of the dishwasher. After some research, I found this site. I watched the repair video on Youtube and decided to try the repair myself. The video outlining the procedure for replacing the part is accurate. It took me 45 minutes total to remove the old part, align the new part and tighten the hose clamp. Then I made sure it wasn't leaking by running the dishwasher for 10 minutes. I only needed a philips and flat head screw drivers, and needle nose pliers, to perform the repair. The biggest challenge was pushing the new part in place while aligning it with other parts in the dishwasher. 

Saw water leaking from below the diverter valve assembly; specifically below the motor that is attached to the diverter valve assembly. Initial thought was to replace the rubber O ring around the diverter valve because the rubber ring might have been worn out after so many years of use but later decided to replace the entire assembly, which was the right choice because after removing and disassembling the diverter valve, it revealed there is another smaller rubber O ring inside, which was the actual root cause of the leak. Since it took quite a while to replace the parts, one would only want to take the dishwasher apart once, as opposed to replacing the larger O ring and found that it still leaks and had to go back to replace the whole assembly again, which contains the smaller O ring, which was the real cause of the leak. 

Pulled out the dishwasher. Toweled up water in the drain pan to clear the code. Ran the dishwasher to observe where the leak was. It was dripping from the diverter valve assembly. Ordered a new assembly and searched YouTube for videos on taking apart a Bosch dishwasher. Replaced the part. $45 fix for a 6-year-old dishwasher. I could not get a service tech to even look at it for 60 days! Thanks AppliancePartsPros.com.
