Bosch Dishwasher Lines and Features
What a Bosch Dishwasher Technician Deals With
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)
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 not draining. Bosch says clogged food debris in the filter or drain pump is the most common cause, so clean the filter first and then remove the pump cover to clear debris. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Not Draining
- Dishwasher not cleaning. Bosch points first to cleaning the filter, then checking loading so tall items do not block the spray arms, adding rinse aid, and clearing clogged spray arm holes. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Not Cleaning Dishes
