Keep searches simple. Use keywords, e.g. "leaking", "pump", "broken" or "fit".
The washer had an error message in the display of E:09. I called Bosh on customer srevice and she said that the heat pump was not working and needed to be replaced. Since the motor is the main part for this that needed to be replaced as well. The pars were under $200.00 total so we oted to fix this
We followed the video and had no problems with leaks at all afterwards. The parts fit perfectly and the machine is working great again.

Over the years the filter became too clogged with embedded particles
Really simple. You pull out the drain filter plate and pull the filter off the support and replace. I gave everything a good cleaning and put it back in place.

dishwasher not draining, dishes dirty
replacing the sensor was simple, just unplug and turn it out, but didn't solve the problem, it's a float sensor that doesn't show up on the tech sheet in the dishwasher or anywhere in troubleshooting on the internet I could find.

Inlet valve was leaking water at all times causing the unit to shut down with the bottom tray collecting water.
Repair was simple once the problem was diagnosed with the inlet valve.
Most of the work was in disconnecting the necessary lines so the dishwasher could be removed from the cabinets to replace the bad valve. Replacing the valve was easy. Reinstalling the dishwasher was just the reverse of the removal. The replacement part matched the original and solved the problem we had.

Water leaking and high pitch noise mid way through operation.
Mistakenly opened covers for the drain pump. Had to put those covers back in place.
Heater and pump installed easily with a bit of careful maneuvering the plugs and plug housing from the exterior. Pump installed in place easily. Clamp fit perfectly.

When loaded, the lower rack would fall off the rails
The problem and solution were described on the internet. I ordered a set of 4 wheels for $43+. I received one wheel. When I called Drew told me that the order was correct, but the description on the web page was wrong. He was to sent me a return label, but it has not arrived. Since then I went to the Bosch website, found the set of wheels (Part 10016657) for $42. They have been installed and the problem seems to have been fixed.

plastic chrome trim on the door handle was broken.
Simply removed the four screws holding the handle in place, gently removed the handle and inserted the new part. You have to be careful and work slowly in order not to damage the front of the door while getting the snap locks unsnapped.


Once the old part was removed, simply snap in the new part and put the screws back.

Great help in locating the correct part on the phone.

Center section of handle broken
The handle fits from the inside of the outer door panel. I removed the panel. The handle is easier to remove if you break it in the middle. I then installed the handle and front panel. Note the length of the screws and their positions.

Chronic water leakage
Replaced ‘sump’ housing , seal was leaking on it- replaced inop float on water level warning system switch, and switch itself as well- replaced drain pump motor attached to sump- replaced o-ring seal at water sprayer inlet valve- replaced water inlet plastic assemble on side of dishwasher- replaced drain hose out of sump assembly.

Used YouTube video to understand repair- this is an involved repair in time and complexity- dishwasher eventually gets turned upside down once removed and stripped down, to remove the white plastic water pan , which then allows access to the guts of all the above parts- some critical seals only come with new assemblies, so you are buying that new part to get a new seal and ensure no new leaks from what you took apart.

My flow tube had a hole in it
Initially, I received an E15 error. I evaluated for leaks but couldn't find anything except for water in the bottom of the dishwasher after about 30 minutes of the initial cycle. After discovering the hole in the flow tub, I order the part. It came a few days later & replace the part within a 15 minutes of receiving it. I didn't think it would resolve the issue but it did. Thank you!
