Know Your Bosch Dishwasher
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)
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
- Dishwasher not drying. Bosch recommends leaving space between items so water drains off, adding rinse aid, and using the Sanitize or Extra Dry option if the model has one. Source: Bosch - Dishes Wet After Cycle
What Bosch Dishwasher Codes Mean
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|
| E15 | Water detected in the base pan; leak protection has activated, so shut off the water supply. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Error Codes |

| E12 | Limescale buildup in the heat pump; descale the dishwasher. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Error Codes |
