Insulation pad for dishwashers. Installs underneath or around the tub to reduce noise and retain heat. Replace if torn, compressed, or missing.

This insulating part provides electrical and thermal isolation for internal appliance components, helping protect wiring and nearby parts from heat and shorting. It's a simple replacement used when the original is damaged or degraded. What it does:

• Separates and insulates electrical connections to reduce risk of shorts and arcing
• Helps block heat transfer from heaters or motors to nearby components
• Restores proper spacing and protection when the original insulator is cracked or worn
• Stops related symptoms like burning smell, intermittent electrical contact, or visible charring near wiring

• One insulating part

• Disconnect power (unplug appliance or switch off breaker) before starting any work
• Follow the appliance's service manual or wiring diagram for correct placement and orientation
• Replace only with the same part to maintain proper fit and insulation; do not modify the part
• If you see damaged wiring or connectors, inspect and repair those as well.

Plastic cover that protects the drain pump mechanism from debris. Replace if cracked, broken, or tabs are bent preventing proper seal during drain cycles.

This turbidity sensor detects how clear the dishwasher's wash water is so the control can adjust cycle time, rinses, and water changes. Replacing a faulty sensor helps restore proper cleaning performance and normal cycle lengths.

• 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

This upper trim strip finishes the top edge of the appliance's front opening, restoring a clean look and helping protect nearby components. Replace a cracked, missing, or loose strip to keep panels aligned and secure.

• Provides a finished edge along the upper portion of the door/face area
• Helps protect adjacent components from dust and minor splashes
• Maintains proper panel gaps and alignment
• Typical symptoms: visible cracks, warping, looseness, rattling, or exposed/sharp edges

• Disconnect power before servicing; also shut off water
• Remove the existing strip by releasing screws/clips; retain hardware for reuse
• Align the new strip and secure evenly—do not overtighten fasteners
• Check door/panel operation afterward to confirm proper fit and clearance

• 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.

The Flip Tine Latch is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. It serves as a latching mechanism on upper dish racks that securely holds folded tines.

Made of durable plastic, the latch features offset hooks integrated along its base edge. These engage onto roll edges of individual flip up tines, pinning them neatly against the chamber to prevent unwanted movement.

Symptoms of a failed flip tine latch include:

• Sagging or unfolded flip tines potentially blocking spray jets
• Restricted water distribution due to improper rack orientation
• Scratched or misplaced dishes from unlatched tines potentially flailing
• Inefficient cleaning from lack of optimized spray coverage

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