This just happened with mine. All I did, was hold down the start button for 3-5 seconds to reset it. Started up just fine after that.

The machine is telling you to check the water supply which fills your dishwasher. Check if the water pipe is frozen or blocked, do you need to turn on a tap to allow the water go flow to the dishwasher ? :)

if no drain, then no cycle. problem is probably that draining is not taking place. check the following: if plumbed in under the sink, remove drain hose from spigot and check no blockage. start any program - all programs start with drain. listen carefully for a low humming noise. if you hear this, it means you have something stuck in the pump impellor - bit of bone, cocktail stick etc. get back to me if you like with what you find

Hi, it seems you have a drainage problem. Try to reset the machine, or start a new cycle. It should start draining straight away. If not, listen carefully to see if the dishwasher is making a huming noise. If it is then the waste pump is blocked. If not it might need a replacement pump.

searched oother sites. some report a circuit board problem where one of the solder joints overheated and burned out of contact. check yours and repair/replace if that is the problem.
if not at least you can rule it out.

SOURCE: My Bosch dishwasher(model # she44c02uc/43) extended wash/no drain

Hi,

The issue with your Bosch dishwasher likely lye`s within`the electronic timer/control. A faulty flow switch, ntc or heater can also cause this, but not very probable.

If you feel capable there`s a way to visually inspect the control. It will require you to remove the control from the unit and then remove the control from it`s plastic housing and look for a burnt solder contact on the printed circuit board. This will be one of the pins from the heater relay, hence the unit sit`s at "1" ( because it can`t heat to advance or until canceled ) trying to heat the water.

**Further to this, if you or someone you know is proficient at soldering, a lot of times it can be remedied by simply repairing the solder...although Bosch recommend`s replacing the control and I don`t pretend to speak on there behalf nor do I profess to know better. This is just my experience (it work`s) and my opinion (why buy new if one can repair ?)**

**Please disconnect the power before attempting any service to the dishwasher. If you do not feel comfortable attempting this service, call a local pro, preferably one familiar with Bosch/Thermador/Gaggenau, to service your machine.**

Hope this answer`s your question, let me know if I can assist you further. Thank`s for visiting "fixya" for your repair inquiries. Please take a moment and rate this solution and leave a testimony to it`s success or failure, but I`m 99.9% certain ;)

Good luck.

macmarkus :)

Bosch dishwasher. When running, can see water flow down overflow channel to pan at bottom of machine.

If you can see water flowing down the overflow channel to the pan at the bottom of your Bosch dishwasher while it is running, this indicates that there may be a problem with the dishwasher's float switch or water inlet valve.
The float switch is a small device located at the bottom of the dishwasher's tub that is designed to detect the water level inside the dishwasher. If the water level rises too high, the float switch will shut off the water inlet valve to prevent the dishwasher from overflowing. If the float switch is not functioning properly, it may allow water to continue to flow into the dishwasher, resulting in water flowing down the overflow channel to the pan at the bottom.
Another possible cause of this issue could be a faulty water inlet valve. The water inlet valve is responsible for regulating the flow of water into the dishwasher. If the valve is stuck open or is not functioning properly, it may allow water to continue to flow into the dishwasher, resulting in water flowing down the overflow channel to the pan at the bottom.
To resolve this issue, you may need to have a professional technician inspect and repair your Bosch dishwasher. They can test the float switch and water inlet valve to determine the cause of the problem and replace any faulty components as needed.

Bosch model SHX68T55UC/02 Completely dead after 2 inch flood in kitchen.

You will need to remove the unit from its installation in the cabinetry. Check the wiring connector located on the rear of the base, near one side. The wire connection must be clean, dry and securely snapped into place. If this connection is burned, distorted or won't allow the plug (special shape) to click securely into place then it should be replaced. Since the unit is totally dead it would appear there is no power reaching the control module, But, you can also confirm that water did not overflow the top of the dishwasher base pan and allow water to enter the pump motors (there are two.) If so these must be thoroughly dried. They may be damaged if power was supplied to a motor with water in the winding and contacts.

HOW DO I CHECK THE WATERTAP ION MY FRONT LOAD BOSCH WASHING MACHINE

u mean this

see pics
If your washer doesn't go through the washer rinse cycle, the most likely cause is the water valve. What happens is the water valve will stop letting cold water into the washer; therefore, once the washer gets to rinse it will either stop or not do anything during the whole rinse cycle.
This is because when you selected your water temperature, you may have selected warm/cold or hot/cold. The hot water came in and you didn't notice any problems. When it got to rinse, the cold water the cold water won't come in. Therefore, the washer does nothing.
The item to check would be your water inlet valve. Check it for continuity with a multi meter it should show Ohms or a closed circuit. To test it when water is overflowing unplug the unit and see if it still overflows or continues to fill. If it stops when unplugged. Then it is not a water inlet problem but an electrical signal problem going to ur water inlet valve. Possibly from the panel or board. You can also do a live volt test to see if it is getting the full 120 current, but be sure to unplug unit before testing as this is a live test.
Another test u can do to check the water inlet valve, first cut the water off and remove the hoses off the back of the washer. Then one at a time point the hoses inside the washer tub and turn the water back on. If you don't have good water pressure, turn the water back off and remove the strainer that should be in one end of the hose. Inspect the strainer to see if it is stopped up, clean it and reinstall it. Now repeat this test. If you have good water pressure now, reinstall hose and your problem is fixed.
If you still don't have good water pressure, the problem is in your house plumbing and you need to call a plumber. If you had good water pressure the first time you performed the test, the water valve is bad and needs replacing

She68t52uc flashing light which says E:15 and watertap

Not sure if this will definitely work, but i do believe this is a flood safety device. Try removing the drain pipe from the waste pipe, into a bucket or bowl, and empty as much water out as you can, then, with the pipe on the floor (will get wet), tip the top of the dishwasher backwards about 45 degrees, and hold for a few seconds. It may be that water/suds are still in the bottom of the machine, or the dishwasher detected this.

Watertap message on Bosch dishwasher

Hi.
Check the water supply first. Make sure water is actually flowing through the tap. Also check the inlet hose has not been squashed on installation as this is a common fault. All hoses should be routed along the bottom of the machine in the back where clearance is provided.

Dishwasher not working.... when i close the dishwasher and turn it on i can not hear any water running and there is a pool of water at the bottom that will not drain

Hello, How long has your dishwasher been do this? Have you washed dish's in it? Also, these German made dishwasher run on less than 2 1/2 gallons of water. These German manufactured dishwasher machines run really quite. Because of the German water conservancies laws. They limit the amount of water dishwasher and washing machine can use. Also, there is no storage hot water system in there homes, it on demand hot water. You can't hear the motor running and about the only thing one can hear is maybe the water washing the dishes.


Now, the water at the bottom of the dishwasher, if the drain isn't connected up under is the sink drain and trap area or the garbage disposable in the sink. but some place lower on the drain pipe. You will not have a spiffing effect on the the bottom of the dishwasher, it the same with washing machines. One the discharge pump starts sucking air, it will not drain the dishwasher. The siffen effect works if the water is below the outlet for the drain. Example: Home owner have the new washing running and continue fill with water. Why, because the drain pipe end is below the the bottom of the washing machine tub. It fill up with water and siffen action continues emptying the tube will it still filling. One heck of a water bill.

When dishwasher runs it is continuous for about 3 hours Bosch clasixx free standing

It is possibly the water heater, basically if you run a normal wash at 65 degrees and the heater has failed, the d/w stat is waiting for the water temp to reach the desired temp. It will continue to wash, waiting for this to happen and eventually it will give up the ghost and time out, aborting the cyle.
The instantaneous water on this model is around £100 and too be honest is best fitted by an expert, so if this is the problem you'll be looking at a reasonable repair bill.
If you decide on a repair and you are in the UK, contact BSH Home Appliances who are the repair section of Bosch as they offer a one off payment on your first call out (even though they know there is definately a fault) this covers the repair cost for the first visit and then covers the complete machine for 12 months. You can pay in instalments for 10 months which will take the stick out a touch (this is called repair +).
Really hope this helps, good luck.
