The Cover is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. It serves as a protective barrier over vulnerable inner components. The cover helps prevent damage from spills, shields electronics from moisture, and blocks access to moving parts for safety.

Causes of a bad cover can be normal wear and tear, repeated impact damage, or improper handling during repairs.

Symptoms of a bad cover include:

• Cracks, holes or other physical damage
• Warping or deformation over time
• Loose or improper fit that exposes internal parts

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

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.

The Clip is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch dishwashers requiring sturdy connection points within moving assemblies. It securely fastens tub attachments avoiding unintended separation.

Corrosion-resistant metals and durable plastics withstand caustic cleaning chemicals without wear or plastic deformation. Over-torque protection prevents breakage from maximum component tensions. 

Symptoms signaling the need for a new clip can include: 

• Loosened attachments enabling unwanted vibrations or noise during cycles
• Detached components no longer serve necessary functions  
• Fastener failure releasing spray arm assemblies subject to shifts

Causes relate to metal fatigue from repeated loading/unloading movements over thousands of cycles. Direct physical impacts could also crack or separate clips holding assemblies together.

This OEM Bosch replacement clip is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore dishwashers requiring securely fixed internal mechanisms throughout demanding operational stresses. Reinstallation ensures reliable retention.
 

This is the insert for the dishwasher silverware/utensil basket. It helps separate and support flatware so pieces stay upright and spaced for proper spray coverage, replacing a cracked or missing insert to restore normal loading and cleaning. What it does:

• Fits into the utensil basket to separate forks, spoons, and knives
• Helps prevent nesting and keeps small items from slipping through
• Holds flatware upright to maintain consistent spray reach
• Typical symptoms: broken or missing sections, warped piece, utensils tipping or sliding out

• 1 insert

• Ensure mating surfaces and seals are clean and properly seated
• Tighten snugly by hand; do not overtighten to avoid stripping

The Divertor Motor is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers.  This part controls the direction of water flow within the unit. This motor directs the water to different spray arms based on the selected wash cycle, ensuring efficient cleaning by optimizing water usage and spray intensity. 

Causes of damage to the divertor motor can include regular wear and tear, exposure to water and detergent over time, and electrical issues such as wiring problems or faults in the control board.

Symptoms of a failing Divertor Motor include:

• Inadequate water distribution during cycles, which can lead to uneven cleaning results.
• The dishwasher making unusual noises, such as humming or grinding, which may indicate a struggle in the motor function.
• Certain wash zones receiving little to no water, affecting the appliance's overall performance.
• Error codes displayed on the dishwasher panel that relate to water circulation problems.

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

The Flow Meter Sensor is an OEM component specifically designed for Bosch dishwashers. It monitors water volume flowing into the unit during cycles to ensure sufficient levels for optimal cleaning performance. Precise detection prevents inefficient or ineffective washings.

Causes of a bad flow meter sensor can involve scale buildup obstructing readings or normal internal component wear reducing accuracy over time. Heat exposure risks also impact functionality warranting replacement. 

Symptoms of a bad flow meter sensor include:

• Incomplete or insufficient water fill during cycles  
• Soiled dishes remain even after normal duration wash/rinses
• Faulty water usage readings causing cycle malfunctions

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore dishwashers. Replace to restore full water volume sensing for thoroughly clean dishes on every cycle.
 

The Shower is an OEM component designed specifically for Bosch dishwashers. It provides superior coverage and washing performance through its unique rotating arm and nozzle design. Causes of a bad spray arm and shower head include mineral deposits restricting spray patterns, cracked or broken assembly parts, or worn nozzles that no longer fully rotate. 

Symptoms of a bad part include: 

• Soil or food debris that isn't fully removed from crevices or hard to reach areas
• An arm that doesn't rotate smoothly during the cycle or gets stuck
• Cracks or breaks in the plastic that cause leaking or restricted spray patterns

This Bosch part can also be used on Thermador and Gaggenau appliances.

This temperature sensor (NTC) monitors wash temperature and reports it to the control so the cycle heats and advances correctly. Replacing a faulty sensor can restore proper cleaning performance and normal cycle times. What it does:

• Measures water temperature and sends resistance changes (NTC) to the control
• Helps the control regulate heating and cycle progression
• Failure symptoms can include no/insufficient heat, extended cycles, or poor drying
• May trigger a temperature-sensor fault (e.g., E11 on some models)

• 1 temperature sensor

• Disconnect power and turn off water supply before servicing
• Access is typically at the sump/heat-pump area; remove the toe-kick/lower panel as needed
• Expect some residual water; place a towel or tray to catch drips
