The Water Valve Assembly is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. This assembly controls the flow of water into the dishwasher, ensuring that the correct amount of water is used during the wash cycle for optimal cleaning performance.

Causes of a bad water valve assembly can include mineral deposits from hard water, wear and tear over time, or electrical issues that prevent the valve from opening or closing properly. These issues can lead to improper water flow or leaks.

Symptoms of a bad water valve assembly include:

• Dishwasher not filling with water
• Insufficient water during the wash cycle
• Water leaks from the valve area
• Unusual noises when the valve is operating

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

The Spray Arm is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. It is responsible for evenly distributing water across the dish racks during wash cycles using a rotating arm and nozzle design.

Causes of a bad spray arm can include mineral or limescale buildup that inhibits water pressure/flow, or damage from accidental impact that impacts its rotation. Over time, normal wear and tear on plastic spray arms can also affect optimal spray coverage.

Symptoms of a bad spray arm include:

• Poor or uneven cleaning results
• Dirt or food debris remaining on dishes after cycles complete
• Clogs or blockages in the arm and nozzle openings

Symptoms of a bad Lower Door Seal include:

• Water leaking from the bottom of the dishwasher door
