Garth January 17, 2022 for Model Number Bosch Dishwasher SHV46C13UC / 40 The machine appears to run a wash cycle normally, but there is dirty/used wash water left at the bottom of the machine. I have checked the drainage pipe - all good. I have manually drained the machine and left it overnight and no more water appears. So not a leaky inlet or 'backwash' from the sink. I pulled the machine and found the 'emergency/ overfull drain'. activated it manually and the pump ran, and the machine drained. I tried a reset that didn't work. If I start a cycle and then do a cancel & drain the Clean light comes on, but the pump doesn't activate. In summary, it's not a drain line problem, and the pump is working. It's just not activating at the end of the wash cycle (or the cancel drain cycle). Is it a float problem (i don't think so?) or is it a controller problem or is there something else to look at?
1 Answer Hello Garth, Since the drain pump operates when activated by the flood switch, you will need to replace the control unit 00676967. Read More...
Don June 29, 2021 for Model Number Bosch SHX43C05UC/46 I have a similar problem with this dishwasher to an answered question - pump seems to run as soon as power is applied with the door open. How do I test the float switch to see if that is the issue? If not I suppose it is the control board. Thank you.
1 Answer Don, You can test the float switch for continuity and if the float switch is tripped then look for a water leak. If this checks ok then the control board would be the issue. Read More...
Donna May 16, 2020 for Model Number Bosch dishwasher SHV4613UC/30 Dishwasher will just run water isn’t as hot. Have to manually cancel the cycle and drain the water. We have already replaced the Heating unit (we bought it from you and used the video—all went well) but the problem persists. When I cancel the cycle and it drains and beeps the clean light comes on but not the sanitized light. What else should we try?
1 Answer Donna, as the heater assembly 00480317 has been replaced, the wires would need to be inspected for any breaks and the heater wires can be tested for continuity (with the power supply to the dishwasher off). If the wires are in good condition and not broken, the main control 00676967 would be the likely cause. Read More...
Ted April 18, 2020 for Model Number SHX3AR75UC/22 Hello! Our Bosch dishwasher (SHX3AR75UC/22) is not draining. I have already replaced the drain pump motor, checked the flow back flap, and cleared all drainage lines for blocks. I have noticed that when the dishwasher attempts to drain (either at the end of a cycle or when I manually raise the float to prompt a drain) the drain pump motor will make three short attempts (whirls up and spins the impellers three short times in succession) and then stops. The dishwasher will then beep and cancel the cycle. Thanks!
1 Answer Ted, during the three short bursts of an attempt to drain, water should be able to be heard going into the drain pipe. If not, then it would be recommended that the connection where it goes into the house drain or disposal is inspected. There could be a clog in the connection point (if a new disposal has been installed, the drain plug may not have been knocked out). The three short cycles are used by the main control to identify if there is a clog before trying to drain. Once all of the above mentioned have been inspected, the last step would be a failure in the main control board 12010638. Read More...
David July 18, 2019 for Model Number SHV46C13UC/30 Hello, Our dishwasher (Bosch SHV46C13UC/30) makes a clicking noise from the control panel area, then the inlet valve opens (but I am not sure it is opening all the way) and a small amount of water enters the dishwasher. Then nothing. When I open the door, the water level is about 1" deep. I can empty it with the red float control. Occasionally it will try and fill then pump then fill. I replaced the water inlet valve, but I still have the same problem.
1 Answer David, you may want to inspect the inlet tank assembly 00263833 for any signs of calcium build-up at the sensors. If there is calcium build-up, it will need to be replaced. However, if the inlet tank assembly is clear, then the most likely issue would be with the control 00676967 based on the information that has been given. Read More...

1 Answer David,This sounds like a problem with the water valve not opening enough. Sometimes the valve won't open far enough and water will leak out of the water fill assembly on the side and flow into the base engaging the flood switch also. If it was a control issue the valve would not be energized at all. 00425458 Read More...
William July 31, 2018 for Model Number SHV46C13UC/40 My dishwasher does not dry the dishes. The system was only receiving 50VAC after soap dispenser was opened instead of 120VAC. Does the control board need to be replaced?
1 Answer William, you should be able to take the door panel off and access the main control, there is a tech sheet there at the bottom of the door that will show you which wire sends voltage to the water heater. If no voltage is going to the heater, replace the control,, part number is 00676967 Read More...
Jim February 07, 2018 for Model Number SHX43C02UC/46 Bosch SHX43C02UC/46. Before starting the dishwasher, a pump running noise occurs as soon as the power button is pressed with door open. Will not stop unless power button is turned off. Drains and fills normally. Cycles normally and dishes are clean and hot. Problem only happens occasionally. Seems to resolve by leaving power off for a little while. Removal of door and kickplate shows no leaks or standing water, all electrical connections are secure. Spray arms, filters are clean. Could this be control board or something else?
2 Answers Jim, The issue could be the pressure chamber switches, or float, still. Before you replace the control board we would recommend you check or replace the pressure chamber 00440670 since the problem is intermittent. Read More...

Susie November 30, 2017 for Model Number Bosch ShE65T55uc/07 One day, months ago, E27 flashed on our Bosch. Replaced the door latch assembly to no avail. After that, no lighting showed up in the display any longer. After that, tried replacing the control display module to no avail. After that we checked the on/off switch to make sure it had power. Finally, called the tech out. He looked it over, and after awhile, indicated that the problem was the Power Module. So, ordered a new pre-programmed power module from Bosch and still the dishwasher does not run. Yes there's power coming in at the right amount - even the service tech looked at the thing. What are we missing? What in the world could it be? Dishwasher is only about 2 years old.
1 Answer Hello Susie. You will need to check the wiring harness and make sure it is good. If so, then test and see where the power is being lost at. Issues like these can require live voltage testing to determine the issue. You can test this with a multi-meter TJMA-DMT3. Here is a link on how to use a multi-meter. http://forum.appliancepartspros.com/oven-repair-including-ranges-cooktops/4810-how-check-continuity-ohmmeter.html Read More...
