Bosch Dishwasher Lines and Features
How Bosch Dishwashers Are Built
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)
Common Bosch Dishwasher Problems
- 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
What Bosch Dishwasher Codes Mean
