The Float Switch is an OEM replacement part specific to Bosch dishwashers. It is a switch located in the sump area of the dishwasher tub that detects water levels and provides feedback for automatic filling and draining functions. Symptoms of a bad float switch include:
Causes of a bad float switch are usually mineral or sediment buildup disrupting its buoyancy and sensing ability. Without a properly functioning float switch, the dishwasher cannot effectively monitor water levels to manage filling and drainage. This OEM Bosch replacement switch is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore dishwasher models.
I checked continuity at the float switch since I knew the inlet valve was working when direct wired to 120v. Switch did not have continuity. Replaced switch and inlet valve worked at start of cycle. Read more

The Panel-Facia part did the trick (although you should note that the part called a "holder" is already installed, and doesn't need to be ordered separately). The installation was a bit more involved than it appeared to be at first glance, as many parts of the door needed to be disassembled. I recommend reviewing a YouTube video on door disassembly before you get started (and make sure you turn off the circuit breaker!). Installation was successful and solved the problem. Read more

Used vids on youtube for steps on how to disassemble and install the pump; search "Bosch dishwasher circulation pump replacement". Also on AppliancePartsPro forums, a poster put up the Bosch "Dishwasher Service Training Manual" in .pdf. Search "Bosch dishwasher low pressure" on the forum. It's one of the post with the longest thread. Six pointers. 1. In another forum post, the poster noted that some hoses were brittle with age - and cracked when reinstalling. I had same issue (my washer is... Read more

Hearing a metal on metal noise and not actually circulate water cancelling cycle worked fine After some web research, I concluded it was highly likely to be the circulation pump, so I watched the video on AppliancePartPros.com and realized it was a lengthy repair (a lot of steps) but not technically difficult. I simply played and paused the video at each step and duplicated the steps. The biggest things to take note of: 1) take good pictures of the wiring to use when you re-connect. 2) Wear... Read more

We just bought an older home, and the Bosch dishwasher was missing the base panel. Found the model number inside the appliance, and found the part online. We needed a white base panel, but weren't sure if it would fit (based on the model #), so we ordered both white and black panels, thinking at least the black one would fit. THEY ARE THE SAME PANEL, ONLY DIFFERENT COLORS. Very happy that the white base panel fit like a glove. Shipping was super fast too. ? Read more

I would have had a difficult time fixing this had I not seen your video. It was a VERY SIMPLE repair but I would have been afraid to take pliers and bend the rack. I would have thought I was doing something wrong. Thank you for the time and expense put into making a video for such a simple repair on a product that you surely cannot be making a large profit on.

Initially performed troubleshooting over the phone with Bosch customer support and did preliminary research on the web. Ultimately had to call out service technician to isolate/confirm problem. He confirmed the problem was most likely the switch (if not, the actually computer processor) and gave me the part number (since it was going to take 10 BD's for him to get the part). I ordered through Appliance Parts Pros and received the part in only 2 days. However, upon trying to install it, I... Read more

I replaced the gaskets with products from this site which I would not have been able to do without the video on this site. Hard job. The leak was still there though, so I have some hints with this kind of washer. 1) There is a float switch on the base that turns on the drain pump when there is a leak, that is why the drain pump runs constantly, it prevents catastrophic flooding in many cases. The float consists of a little styrofoam donut that lifts an arm, all white. The arm is connected to a... Read more
