Bosch Dishwasher Lines and Features
What Makes Bosch Dishwasher Repairs Different
Installation calls for a high loop in the drain hose so debris cannot flush back into the dishwasher, and a missing high loop is one listed cause of a not-draining code. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Owner's Manual (SHV78B73UC)
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 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
- 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
Reading a Bosch Dishwasher Error Code
| 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 |
| E18 | Water level too low; confirm the supply is fully on and the inlet hose is not kinked. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Error Codes |
| E27 | Supply voltage too low; reset the breaker and have the incoming voltage checked if it returns. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Error Codes |
