What a Bosch Dishwasher Technician Deals With

Bosch dishwashers dry by condensation: a hot final rinse warms the dishes and moisture condenses on the cooler stainless steel tub walls instead of being baked off by a bottom heating element. Source: Bosch - Tips to Maximize Drying
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 odor. Bosch blames food particles trapped in the filter, so wash the filter, clear the spray arms, and run a cleaner and descaler periodically. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Smells
