Bosch Shx46a05uc/21 Parts

Support strap that cushions and secures the dishwasher circulation motor, stabilizing the motor assembly to reduce vibration and help maintain alignment for steadier, quieter operation. Designed for circulation motors with softer bearings. What it does:

• Cushions and supports the circulation motor to limit movement and vibration and reduce motor noise.
• Secures the motor assembly to the tub/chassis to maintain proper clearance and fit.
• Helps prevent undue stress on motor bearings and mounting points that can cause premature wear.
• Commonly replaced when the strap is cracked, stretched, or no longer holds the motor firmly in place.

• Disconnect power and water supply before servicing; follow all safety and OEM service instructions.
• Remove access panels and any obstructing components to reach the circulation motor as required.
• Replace using the original mounting hardware; inspect motor mounts and bearings while accessible.
• Reassemble and run a short test cycle to confirm reduced vibration/noise and proper motor operation.

This sump collects and channels dishwasher wash water into the wash pump, helping maintain proper drainage and reduce leaks at the tub-to-pump connection. Replace a cracked or damaged sump to restore correct water flow and sealing. What it does

• Directs wash water from the tub into the wash pump and drain system.
• Houses the pump inlet and seals the pump-to-tub interface.
• Prevents leaks by providing a secure seal between the tub and pump assembly.
• Common symptoms: pooling water in the tub, dishwasher not draining, leaks from the base, or unusual pump noise/vibration.

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before starting any repair.
• Handle carefully; inspect and replace any worn gaskets or seals when installing the new sump.
• Access typically requires removing lower access panels and the lower dish rack.
• After installation, test for leaks and proper drain operation before returning the appliance to normal use.

This electrical control switch completes or interrupts the power circuit that runs a specific appliance function, restoring on/off control for responsive operation and safer use. What it does:

• Acts as the user-activated or circuit-activated on/off control for a discrete function
• Restores power flow when the switch is made, allowing the associated component or cycle to run
• Common symptom: appliance function won't start or respond when the control is pressed or activated
• Common symptom: intermittent operation or no power to a given feature

• One switch

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting any service to prevent shock
• Access and replacement steps vary by model; follow the appliance service manual or schematic for safe disassembly
• Handle connectors carefully and confirm secure wiring/terminal seating after installation

This sump clamp secures the dishwasher sump/drain assembly to the tub, keeping the seal and pump assembly held in place to prevent leaks and movement. It's a small but essential fastener for a watertight sump connection. What it does:

• Holds the sump/drain housing tightly against the tub to maintain a proper seal
• Prevents the sump assembly from shifting during operation, which can cause leaks or noise
• Helps stop water from leaking under the machine when the pump runs
• Supports proper alignment of the drain/pump components for reliable draining

• One sump clamp

• Disconnect power and water supply before starting any repair
• Access the sump area by removing the lower access panel or toe kick and tilting the machine as needed
• Inspect the sump seal/gasket and replace if cracked or damaged when replacing the clamp
• Tighten clip until secure but avoid forcing or deforming the sump housing; test for leaks after reassembly

This shaft for the float switch is the replacement shaft that secures and guides the dishwasher float to accurately detect water level, helping the appliance fill and shut off properly. Direct-fit design replaces the worn or broken float shaft. What it does

• Guides the float so the level-sensing switch can detect low or high water levels.
• Prevents overfilling by ensuring the float actuates the water-level switch reliably.
• Commonly replaces a cracked, bent or missing shaft that causes inconsistent fill, continuous filling, or water-level errors.

• One replacement float switch shaft.

• Disconnect power to the appliance before starting any repair.
• Remove the access panels and float assembly per your model's service instructions to reach the shaft.
• Inspect the float and switch for damage; replace only the failed components as needed.
• Reassemble carefully and test fill/stop operation before returning the appliance to service.

A small replacement magnet plunger that secures top-rack components and helps maintain proper alignment and operation. Use this part when the top-rack magnet is damaged, loose, or no longer holds as intended. What it does:

• Provides magnetic retention for top-rack assemblies and related components
• Restores proper alignment and engagement of the top-rack magnet interface
• Can reduce rattling or shifting of the top rack caused by a worn or missing magnet
• May be needed if the original plunger is cracked, corroded, or detached

• One magnet plunger

• Designed for top-rack application only; confirm correct orientation before installing
• Turn off power to the appliance and follow all safety guidelines before servicing
• Use basic hand tools; avoid forcing components to prevent breakage

This front base sound insulation is a factory-style cotton pad that helps reduce dishwasher operating noise and provides thermal cushioning under the tub. It restores the appliance's original sound-dampening and insulation where worn or missing. What it does:

• Dampens vibration and reduces motor/tub noise heard during cycles
• Provides a thermal buffer under the dishwasher base to help maintain stable temperatures
• Helps prevent rattles and improves overall quiet operation when installed correctly
• Restores OEM-fit insulation performance after damage, wear, or removal

• One front base sound insulation pad (cotton), as shown

• Disconnect power and water supply before accessing the dishwasher base
• Remove the lower access panel and mounting hardware to reach the insulation area
• Install in the original location; use the same fasteners or adhesive method specified by the manufacturer

This replacement dispenser cover protects the detergent dispenser assembly and helps keep detergent and rinse aid contained until the wash cycle. It restores a proper seal and appearance for the dispenser area. What it does:

• Covers and protects the detergent dispenser housing from water and detergent exposure
• Helps ensure detergent releases correctly during the wash cycle
• Replaces cracked, warped, or missing dispenser trim that can cause leaks or cosmetic damage
• Fits as a direct replacement for the original Bosch dispenser cover

• One dispenser cover

• Disconnect power and water supply before beginning any repair
• Access typically requires opening the inner door panel and removing a few screws; handle panels carefully to avoid scratching
• Use proper-size screwdrivers and keep fasteners organized for reassembly

This spring-style hose clamp secures flexible appliance hoses to fittings, helping prevent leaks and loose connections. It's a small but critical fastener that keeps water and drain hoses sealed under normal operation. What it does:

• Holds a rubber or plastic hose firmly onto a barb or spigot to stop leaks
• Prevents hose slippage that can cause water pooling or drip symptoms
• Maintains a compressive seal that resists vibration and thermal cycling
• Commonly used on drain, fill, and circulation hoses in dishwashers and washers

• Disconnect power and shut off water supply before starting work
• Use appropriate pliers (hose clamp or needle-nose) to expand and position the clamp
• Ensure the clamp sits evenly over the hose barb and releases fully to secure the hose
• Inspect the hose and connection for damage; replace hoses if they are cracked or excessively worn
