How Bosch Dishwashers Are Built
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)
Models with zeolite drying store heat and moisture in a mineral chamber and release warm dry air back into the tub, and dishware blocking the zeolite intake can stop the cycle with a code. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Owner's Manual (SHV78B73UC)
What Bosch Says to Check First

- 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
