Dan S November 27, 2013 for Model Number She45m06l c/50 We found a 2 1/2 inch spring in the bottom of the dishwasher. I suspect it came from the back of the upper arm assembly. I don't find any retaining clips. The unit still functions okay. Any ideas?
1 Answer Dan, There are no springs that are in the dishwasher other than in the one in the dispenser door. Read More...
Charles B October 21, 2013 for Model Number Bosch SHE3AR75UC/07 Dishwasher When the door is opened at the end of the drying cycle water drips from the center spray. (believe it is referred to as upper wash arm and tube assembly). It is located on the bottom of the top basket.
1 Answer Charles, This would be a normal type of issue in which there will be some water left in the spray arm that will allow water to drip down. Read More...
Greggf August 20, 2013 for Model Number SHU43C02 UC/14 Hello! I just talked to a very helpful customer service rep, and ordered the (AP2802458) Center spray arm and tube assembly (I have symptoms of low pressure). She said a tech told her about a gasket or seal between this part and the back tube. Does this part come with the gasket, or is it part of the tube assembly? Can you describe the gasket? Also, in the catch basin (sump?), in a hole on the right side, I can feel a loose, rubbery thing. I looked at it with a flashlight and exam mirror, and it's black. I don't think it's supposed to be there. Perhaps it's a seal out of place? Thank you for giving customers a place to ask these questions!!
1 Answer Hello GreggF. There is a rubber seal in the tube assembly and you must order the feed tube to replace it. Read More...
Darin July 14, 2013 for Model Number SHU9915UC/U11 The center wash arm assembly fell off. Not sure how to reattach. Everything I've read so far says it just snaps on, but I can't seem to get it to stay in place. I see 2 metal clips attached to the back of the dishwasher where it looks like it might snap in, but the arm won't stay. Also, not sure where to line it up. There are 2 holes in the center arm. However the back of the dishwasher from top to bottom thee is a protruding plastic piece, a hole, and then another protruding plastic piece, so not sure whether to line up with the upper piece & hole or lower piece & hole. Please advise.
1 Answer Hello Darin, If the upper rack is in the upper position, align it with the upper hole. If it is in the lowered position, align it with the lower hole. Since the rack is adjustable and the center spray arm mounts to the bottom of it, its' position will determine which hole it will line up with. The center spray arm attaches with plastic clips made on the spray arm assembly. If it doesn't stay on, the spray arm assembly (AP2802458) may require replacement. Read More...
Harrison February 28, 2013 for Model Number Bosch SHV57C03UC/40 We replaced our original upper rack with a Bosch 249277. Now we need a new upper spray arm assembly. Do we need a 298594, or should we get a 359976? (Or, is neither of those correct?)
1 Answer Harrison, you will use 298594 (00298594) for the replacement spray arm. Thanks! Read More...
Marilyn February 18, 2013 for Model Number SHE43P02UC\60 I was wondering if the Bosch middle spray arm that you have will fit my Bosch dishwasher model. In the picture it looks almost excactly like it and the length is the same.
1 Answer Marilyn, according to your model number the replacement center spray arm assembly is part number 00676933. Thanks! Read More...
Margaret K February 11, 2013 for Model Number shx43mo5uc/48 I took the upper spray arm off to clean it and put it back on easily as everything seemed to snap right into place. Since then, the upper spray arm seems to be off balance. Dishes on the upper rack do not come clean and every time I open the door after a cycle, the upper arm is in the same position while the lower arm is in a random position. The upper arm seems to catch on the upper rack. Did I forget something when I put it back together?
1 Answer Hello Margaret, You will want to make sure that the tube that the spray arm is connected to is not loose from wall. Also check to make sure that you pushed spray arm up all the way. If these things check ok then the spray arm 00359976 may be damaged and needing to be replaced. Read More...
Roger December 15, 2012 for Model Number Siemnans Dishwasher SL84A When I researched for the p/n for the upper spray arm assembly I find # 916349. Your listing shows this as a Bosh number. Is the upper spray arm interchangeable between Bosh and Siemans?
1 Answer Roger, the center spray arm and tube assembly 00359976 is the correct replacement and will work on your Siemans SL84A* model. Thanks! Read More...
Kirk November 20, 2012 for Model Number Bosch Dishwasher Hello. My Bosch dishwasher is leaving a rust-like residue on the door after each wash. This just started a month ago. It looks like the result of a spray, so I'm assuming the spinning arm. Have you seen this issue before, and if so what would be your suggestion for remedy?
1 Answer Hello Kirk, This is normally caused by minerals or other contaminants in the water supply. There is nothing in the dishwasher that can cause this. With well water, the well walls can collapse periodically, causing muddy water and with city water, every time the city breaks into the water system to do repairs, add a line, or other maintenance type work, they can introduce contaminates into the water supply. This can also be caused by food containing tomato sauce such as chili or spaghetti sauce. You can use a cleaner WX10X10022, W10549845, W10549845 to flush the unit and sanitize it. Read More...
