The Drain Pump is an OEM replacement part for Bosch dishwashers. It is responsible for pumping out dirty water from the dishwasher tub at the end of each cycle. The drain pump works to thoroughly empty the tub in a timely manner to facilitate a smooth transition to the next cycle.  

Causes of a bad drain pump can include a clogged impeller or blockage of debris inside the pump housing that inhibits proper water flow. 

Symptoms of a bad drain pump include:

  • Incomplete draining of water at the end of cycles 
  • Water remaining or pooling at the bottom of the tub
  • Loud grinding or clicking noises emanating from the pump area
  • Cycles failing to advance or resume properly

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore dishwashers.

Note: Due to a factory design change, connector part# 00623143 may also be needed.

Hello Scott, the manufacturer has supplied no test information on the drain pump.00620774 , it appears to be of the BLDC type of motor in which case an ohm value does not apply.

Ex Wrestler for Model Number Bosch Dishwasher #SHE45M06UC/48, Drain pump #0064229

My Bosch SHE45M06UC/48 is making a grinding noise. I took the dishwasher apart and checked the circulating pump. The impeller moves smoothly and is intact and is firmly affixed to the motor shaft, so I think the circulating pump is fine. I checked the solenoid inlet valve for continuity (it was good) and mechanically (also good). I think the problem is with the drain pump but I'm only 80% sure. when I spin the impeller manually it feels like it has a detent and springs forward when spun every 180 degrees. It does not spin smoothly like the circulating pump. I plugged the drain pump into a cord I made with a standard 120V AC plug on one end, and female 1/4" spade clips on the other. The impeller would spin but seemed loud. Is the "detent" like the movement of the impeller indicative of a problem or is that the way it's supposed to be? Does the impeller on a new part #00642293 drain pump spin smoothly? Thanks

1 Answer

Hello Ex, The "detent" as you called it is a characteristic of the magnetic fields of the type of motor in the pump. You should open the unit and use a wet vac to remove any possible glass shards, bones, or other foreign material that are common in dishwashers. These pumps give so many problems, if there are no clogs in the drain line, I would replace the drain pump 00642239.

Carrie for Model Number SHE44C02UC/22

My dishwasher began to make loud, almost grinding noises and I could smell an odor like burning plastic or rubber. The wash cycle works fine and then it starts to drain at the 75-minute mark (using the Powerwash setting) making this awful noise and smell. It continues to do this and the timer goes up in time, not down. I suspect it's the pump but not sure. I opened the door, removed the lower dish rack, the filters, and cleaned them both. I checked for anything stuck in the bottom, nothing. I then turned the washer on with the door open and it began making the same noise and a very small amount of water was coming out of an opening on the top of the pump. I ran a diagnostic on it and it gave me an E1 code. Does this mean that I need a repairman or can I fix it myself? I have had this dishwasher for 15 years and never had an issue until last night. This is a testament to the high quality of Bosch appliances.

Hello Carrie, The E-1 error indicates an issue with a relay on the control module 00676960. Verify nothing is in the impellers of either pump and replace the control module. This should take care of the problem.

Fred, The Grey wires and the white with purple stripe are your Neutral and L1 supply and can go to either terminal. The green wire you will just find a location under the unit and attach it to metal under the unit as it is the ground wire and they did not put a ground on this pump.

Jim, Check the float switch on the unit to make sure that it is working properly and check to make sure that the float is not sticking in the up position. If this checks ok then the issue sounds likely that the main control board is faulty and would need to be replaced if you replaced the board in the door.

Thomas, The drain pump needs 120 VAC to operate. It gets its voltage from the main control board. Test to see if you are getting voltage when it should be draining. Unfortunately, the control board is not available any longer.

Hello Frank, the drain pump replacement part is 00631200, if you have checked/cleared any obstructions and still not draining and still get code then replace the drain pump, the control board monitors the current draw of the drain motor winding when its powered.
