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.

• Monitors soil level/clarity of the wash water
• Signals the control to extend or shorten wash and rinse phases as needed
• Helps optimize water use while maintaining cleaning results
• Failure symptoms can include unusually long or short cycles, poor cleaning, repeated draining/refilling, or cycles that won't advance

• Disconnect power and turn off the water supply before servicing
• Pull the dishwasher out as needed; access the sensor from the base area
• Place a towel to catch residual water; release the locking tab or twist-lock, unplug the connector, and install the new sensor fully seated and locked
• Restore power/water and run a test cycle; check for leaks

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.

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.
