Parts for Bosch SHVM78Z53N/01: Facia Panel / Operating Module 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

Symptoms of a bad operating module include:

• Inability to start or switch cycles  
• Error codes and lights indicating control failures
• No response to user inputs at the control panel

The Auxiliary Tool is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. This specialized tool is designed to assist with the removal and replacement of the metal nut found on the zeolite container or filter housing.

Proper maintenance such as routinely replacing the zeolite container is important for keeping a Bosch dishwasher operating at peak performance. The zeolite acts as a water softener that reduces water hardness and aids in the cleaning process. Over time, the zeolite container will need replacement as it collects soil and contaminants.

Causes of needing to replace the metal nut can include wear and tear from repeated container changes or damage that prevents the nut from sealing properly.

Symptoms of a bad nut include:

• Inability to securely tighten the zeolite container
• Leaks developing from the filter housing area
