Genuine Bosch part
By: Bosch
Part Number: 00499500
The Pressure Chamber is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. This part is responsible for monitoring and controlling the water level within the dishwasher. It operates by sensing the pressure exerted by the height of the water in the tub and ensures that the dishwasher fills with the correct amount of water for optimal cleaning performance.
Causes for replacement may involve wear and tear over extended use, mineral buildup affecting the switch’s sensitivity, or electrical faults leading to inconsistent performance.
Symptoms of a failing Pressure Chamber include:
- Overfilling or underfilling of the dishwasher, which can lead to inadequate cleaning or potential water damage.
- Unexpected changes in the wash cycle, such as sudden stops or pauses.
- The dishwasher not starting a wash cycle due to incorrect water level readings.
This genuine OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau and select Kenmore models.

Genuine Whirlpool part
By: Whirlpool
Part Number: WPW10274880
This miniature door switch is the snap-action interlock that tells the appliance when the door is closed. Replacing a worn or sticking switch restores reliable start/stop and proper door-status sensing for safe, consistent operation. What it does:
- Acts as the latch/interlock sensor for door open/closed status
- Signals the control to allow or prevent operation based on door position
- Typical symptoms include: won't start or shows a door message, stops when the door is bumped, or light/fan behavior doesn't match door position
What's included:
Install notes:
- Disconnect power before servicing. If working on a microwave, high voltage may be present even when unplugged—properly discharge the capacitor.
- Access the latch/interlock area; note wire positions and transfer one lead at a time to the new switch.
- Use a multimeter to confirm the switch changes continuity when pressed before reassembly.

Kenmore ultra wash dishwasher worked great for 18 months; then would not run start button blinked 3 times and nothing happened Nick C. • Safety Harbor , FL • November 12, 2015
Looked online, appeared to be door switch or control panel. Tried door switch first, a $30 part. Installed new door switch and washer started right up and appears to be fixed. Have not tried full wash cycle yet, but problem appears to be fixed. I decided to buy part from AppliancePartsPros.com because I could return the part if it did not correct the problem, no one else offered such a deal. I will only deal with AppliancePartsPros in the future, they were extremely helpful on the phone!

Wax motor for detergent/rinse-aid dispenser.
Do-It-Yourself Stories from Customers like You
Soap dispenser door wouldn't open David H. • San Francisco , CA • May 15, 2015
Took door off, saw that dispenser linkage was ok, I could open and close by hand, so figured the wax motor or the wiring to it were most likely the problem. I took off the wax motor ( actuator) and ran 120 volts to it via jumper wires, and it did not move at all, so figured good chance that was the problem. Found part # on your site, received new one quickly from you, put it in and works great. Thanks.
