Parts for Bosch HES232U/01: Maintop Assembly Parts

This pushbutton switch controls power to the appliance circuit. When pressed, it opens or closes the electrical path to turn the function on or off, restoring reliable button response and consistent operation.

• Controls on/off power for the selected function
• Worn or stuck switch can cause no response when pressing the button
• Intermittent, delayed, or stuck-on operation may indicate switch failure
• Physical damage or heat discoloration on terminals are common failure signs

• Disconnect power before service to avoid electrical shock
• Note wire positions or photograph connections before removal
• Transfer wires firmly to the new switch; ensure terminals are fully seated
• Test function before reassembling panels

This selector knob replaces a worn, cracked, or missing function dial so you can reliably choose cooktop/oven settings. It restores a solid grip and clear detents for accurate selection and safer operation. What it does:

• Rotates to select appliance cooking or control functions, providing tactile detents for set positions
• Replaces stripped or broken knobs that prevent function selection or cause slipping
• Improves user control and the ability to clearly set desired modes or temperatures
• Commonly used when the original knob is damaged, melted, or missing

• Disconnect power or unplug the appliance before removing or installing the knob
• Pull the old knob straight off the control shaft; align the new knob and press firmly onto the shaft until seated
• If knob is tight, use a gentle, even pull on the old knob; avoid excessive force or metal tools that can damage the shaft
• If appliance has electronic controls, verify power is off and follow manufacturer safety instructions

This mounting bracket secures internal components to the appliance chassis so panels and assemblies stay aligned and stable during normal use. It helps prevent rattling and keeps connected parts positioned for reliable operation. What it does:

• Provides a secure mounting point for panels, brackets or assemblies to the appliance frame
• Maintains alignment to reduce vibration noise and part movement
• Restores proper fitment when a bent, broken or missing bracket causes loose panels
• Helps prevent stress on fasteners and adjacent components from misalignment

• High-level replacement; verify part orientation before removing fasteners
• Use correct-size fasteners supplied by the appliance or OEM; do not overtighten
• Disconnect power to the appliance before accessing internal components

This heating element assembly provides the heating source for the appliance, restoring normal temperature output for drying/heating cycles. Replaces a worn or failed element to help recover proper operation and cycle performance. What it does

• Heats air or water as part of the appliance's main heating circuit.
• Restores normal cycle temperatures when the original element has failed.
• Can resolve symptoms such as no heat, extended cycle times, or temperature-related error codes.
• Works with the appliance's thermostat and safety cutouts to maintain safe operating temperature.

• Disconnect power (and gas supply, if applicable) before starting any repair.
• Handle with care to avoid damaging terminals, terminals insulation, or mounting brackets.
• Inspect surrounding wiring, connectors, and thermal cutouts; replace any damaged components.
• After installation, verify proper operation by running a test cycle and checking for correct heat and no unusual smells or noises.

This mounting bracket secures appliance components in place to restore proper alignment and stability. It's a simple replacement part that helps reduce rattling and supports correct panel or assembly positioning. What it does:

• Secures a panel or assembly to the appliance frame to prevent movement and vibration
• Restores proper alignment for doors, panels, or internal components
• Helps stop rattling, noises, or loose components that occur when a support bracket fails
• Provides a direct mechanical replacement—no electrical function

• One replacement mounting bracket

• High-level: remove power and water to the appliance before starting repairs
• Use basic hand tools; keep fasteners from the original part for reinstallation unless new ones are supplied
• If the bracket mounts a door or heavy panel, support the panel during removal and reinstallation to avoid damage
