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
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 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 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
