Bosch Dishwasher Lines and Features
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
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)
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 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
Reading a Bosch Dishwasher Error Code
| Code | What it means |
|---|---|

| E27 | Supply voltage too low; reset the breaker and have the incoming voltage checked if it returns. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Error Codes |
| E14 | Flow meter fault or a problem with the water fill system. Source: Bosch - Dishwasher Error Codes |

Before the Technician Arrives

- What happens during the cycle (no start, no fill, no drain, leaks, dirty or wet dishes)
Dishwasher Notes for Texas City, TX
Most dishwasher calls in Texas City come down to the same handful of parts: the filter and drain path, the drain pump, the inlet valve, the door latch and the heating parts.
Texas has no separate appliance repair license; under the Plumbing License Law, appliance dealers and their employees may install and service appliances (other than water heaters) without a plumbing license when hooking up to existing openings with a code-approved appliance connector, while other gas or water piping work generally requires a plumbing license. Source: Plumbing License Law, Tex. Occ. Code ch. 1301, ยง1301.053 (Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners)
In Texas, you can check a license with the Texas plumbing Public License Search or report a problem to the Texas Attorney General, Consumer Protection Division.
Questions to Ask a Texas City Technician
- If a part has to be ordered, how soon can you come back to finish?
- What is the service call or diagnostic fee, and is it applied to the repair?
- Do you also handle the water supply and drain connections, or should I call a plumber for those?
