The Water Inlet System is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch dishwashers. Comprising inlet valve, screens, hoses, and connectors, it precisely meters fresh water. Reliable flow prevents mineral buildups from impairing performance.

Causes of a bad water inlet system commonly involve bursting hoses or stripped connectors. Prolonged pressure weakens seals requiring timely replacement.

Symptoms of a faulty water inlet system include: 

- Fluctuating or absent water flow to spray arms
- Leaks forming inside or near the installation site
- Errors relating to improper water temperature or amounts  

Causes of a bad water inlet system involve typical degradation such as:

• Limescale clogging narrow valve openings
• Plumbing joint corrosion compromising integrity
• Splitting plastic tubing unable to withstand cycles

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with some Miele, Blomberg, and Thermador dishwashers. 
 

The Screw is an OEM replacement part for Bosch dishwashers. Hundreds of screws hold the appliance panels and internal mechanisms securely in place. Consistent, protective enclosures ensure long-lasting performance.

Causes of a bad screw can include stripped threads from repeated tightening/loosening during repairs. Corrosion posing integrity risks may develop if water penetrates screw heads over time. 

Symptoms of a bad screw include: 

• Panels or racks that rattle or come loose during operation
• Gaps appear that allow residual moisture to seep within
• Internal components shifting position from the original assembly
• Loose wiring susceptible to abrasion posing electrical hazards

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

This O-ring is the sealing gasket between mating components, keeping fluid contained inside the system. Replacing a worn ring restores a tight, leak-free connection and helps prevent drips, moisture, and leak-related error indications.

• Creates a compressible seal between parts to prevent leaks at the joint
• Helps maintain proper system flow by stopping seepage or air ingress
• Direct replacement for rings that are flattened, cracked, brittle, swollen, or missing
• Common symptoms include dripping at the connection, moisture beneath the unit, or leak/float error alerts

• Disconnect power and shut off the water supply before servicing; wear appropriate PPE.
• Note the original ring's location; clean the groove and mating surfaces before installation.
• Apply a light coat of compatible silicone grease; avoid twisting or overstretching the ring.
• Seat evenly, reassemble, restore service, and check for leaks during a test cycle.

The Water Inlet Fill Hose is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. This part is responsible for safely and efficiently connecting the dishwasher to your home's water supply, ensuring that water flows into the dishwasher at the correct pressure and volume for optimal cleaning performance. 

Over time, the Water Inlet Fill Hose can become susceptible to wear and tear, leaks and blockages.

Symptoms indicating the need for a new Water Inlet Fill Hose include:

• Water pooling around the dishwasher base, pointing to a potential leak in the hose.
• The dishwasher not filling with water properly, or filling very slowly, suggesting a blockage or damage to the hose.
• A visible inspection reveals cracks, bulges, or signs of corrosion on the hose connectors.

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

Includes door latch, strike plate and microswitch.

The Float is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. This float senses water levels inside the dishwasher, signaling the inlet valve to refill when needed.

Causes of a float malfunctioning can be mineral deposits accumulating and weighing it down over time, or cracks in the plastic housing allowing water in.

Symptoms of a bad float include:

• The dishwasher not filling or filling slowly
• Error codes related to fill issues
• Improper water levels impacting wash results

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

Wax motor for detergent/rinse-aid dispenser.

This replacement screw secures appliance panels and internal brackets so components stay tight and aligned during everyday use. Replacing missing or stripped hardware restores a solid fit and helps minimize vibration and rattling.

• Fastens covers, panels, and brackets to their mounting points
• Helps maintain alignment of the attached component
• Reduces movement that can cause noise or wear
• Typical reasons to replace: missing screw, stripped head/threads, loose panel or bracket

• Disconnect power and, if applicable, shut off water before servicing
• Use the driver bit specified for your model; hand start threads to avoid cross-threading
• Tighten snugly without over-torquing to prevent stripping
• Replace screws one at a time to maintain alignment

The Push Button is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch dishwasher control panels. It activates cleaning cycles through tactile engagement. 

Reinforced polymer caps endure user-generated pressures without cracking or splitting. Protected circuit pathways respond dependably to indexed presses starting sequences.

Symptoms signaling the need for a new button involve:  

• Failure to register selections hindering engaged cycles
• Loosened fasteners enabling unintended button displacement
• Deformed housings with compromised switches no longer functioning 

Causes requiring replacement usually involve years of wear degrading protective seals. Direct impacts may unsettle attachment boards necessitating full assembly swapping to restore integrity.

This OEM Bosch replacement push button is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore dishwasher control modules relying on electronically controlled starts. Proper fastening re-enables intended initiation capabilities.

Tall item spray head.
This Spray Head is an OEM part for Bosch Dishwashers. It plays a role in distributing water evenly during the dishwasher's washing cycles. Continuous exposure to hard water, debris, or mineral deposits can cause issues with this component.

What Causes a Bad Spray Head:
Hard water deposits, debris, or mineral buildup can clog or block the spray head, affecting its performance. Physical damage can also impair its functionality.

Symptoms of a Bad Spray Head:

• Inadequate cleaning of dishes
• Uneven water distribution
• Reduced water pressure during washing cycles

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

Replacement silverware basket with integral handle in dark gray. Holds forks, knives and spoons in the lower dishwasher rack to keep utensils upright for better cleaning and easier loading, removal and transport. What it does:

• Holds and separates flatware to reduce nesting and promote water flow during wash cycles.
• Integrated handle makes it easy to lift the basket in and out of the rack for loading or unloading.
• Keeps small items from falling through the rack and reduces rattling during operation.
• Replace the basket if it is cracked, broken, or if utensils no longer stay securely in place.

• Installs in the lower dishwasher rack by sliding or snapping into existing rack slots; typically requires no tools.
• Make sure the basket sits level and the handle moves freely before running the dishwasher.
• Inspect for cracks or sharp edges and replace if damaged to avoid utensil loss or interference with spray action.
• Disconnect power first; this part itself does not require electrical work.

This Filter Screen is an OEM part for Bosch Dishwashers. This filter screen efficiently traps debris and food particles, ensuring optimal washing performance.

A common issue with a faulty Filter Screen is clogging due to accumulated debris and food residue. Over time, this can obstruct water flow, resulting in poor cleaning performance or potential drainage problems.

Symptoms of a malfunctioning Filter Screen may include:

• Dirty dishes after a complete wash cycle
• Standing water at the bottom of the dishwasher
• An unpleasant odor emanating from the dishwasher

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