The Pump to Heater Hose Clamp is an OEM part for Bosch dishwashers. This clamp secures the hose that connects the pump to the heater, ensuring a tight and leak-free connection. It plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of the water flow within the dishwasher, preventing leaks and ensuring efficient operation.
Causes of a bad hose clamp can include wear and tear over time, loosening due to vibrations, or damage from repeated tightening and loosening. A faulty clamp can lead to water leaks, which can cause further damage to the dishwasher.
Symptoms of a bad pump to heater hose clamp include:
- Water leaking from the hose connection points
- Reduced water pressure within the dishwasher
- Visible wear, rust, or damage on the clamp
- The clamp not holding the hose securely in place
This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with Thermador, Gaggenau, and some Kenmore models.
