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.

The Control Unit is an OEM component specifically designed for select Bosch dishwashers. It directs all cycle functions through an integrated circuit board and wiring harness. Precise monitoring optimizes cleaning results.  

Symptoms of a faulty control unit involve cycles failing to complete, or washing/drying not commencing as selected. Water leaks from long-term interior dampness exposure require replacement.

Causes of a bad control unit commonly relate to regular wear from extended usage. Component degradation over time inhibits dependable cycle progression necessitating a change.

Symptoms of a bad control unit include:

• Partial or incomplete cycles leaving dishes unclean
• Inoperative cycle/setting buttons and unresponsive display  
• Faulty cycle monitoring resulting in improper cleaning    

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