Bosch Dishwasher Lines and Features
How Bosch Dishwashers Are Built
A safety switch in the base detects water that has leaked into the bottom of the unit and activates leakage protection, shown as code E15. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Error Codes
The filter is a manually cleaned multi-stage assembly (coarse, fine and micro filter) at the bottom of the tub, and a blocked filter can trigger an error code. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Owner's Manual (SHV78B73UC)
Common Bosch Dishwasher Problems
- Dishwasher not cleaning. Bosch points first to cleaning the filter, then checking loading so tall items do not block the spray arms, adding rinse aid, and clearing clogged spray arm holes. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Not Cleaning Dishes
- Dishwasher leaking. When the leak-protection code appears, water has reached the base safety switch, so Bosch says to shut off the water supply before seeking service. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Error Codes
