What a Bosch Dishwasher Technician Deals With
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)
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
What Bosch Says to Check First
- Dishwasher not starting. Bosch says to confirm the door is fully latched, turn off the child lock and power-cycle the unit, or if there is no power check the cord, outlet and breaker. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Troubleshooting
- 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
