    Going out to a Bosch dishwasher Saturday , symptoms sound like it needs heater
    Heater part number is 483257.
    We have in our stock Heater part number. 488856 they look the same on the photo.
    Is their any difference and what is it. It would be good to use the heater in our stock and we will not have to make two trips.
    Thanks

    actual heater element failures are pretty rare on those, most of the time when we replace teh element its due to the diverter motor or seals leaking. almost all heater issues are pcb faults – failed relays, blown triacs or dry joints. I think weve replaced 3 bsh elements for o/c over the last 10 years and theres a hell of a lot of them round here!

    difference between both units is one youd need has the turbidity sensor, and one you have doesnt have it, you can unclip the element from the housing and just swap that out if it has gone o/c its a bit fiddly but if it gets the job done…

    PS take some solder and a soldering iron with you 😉

    Gandh1 has it the wrong way round. Your stock heater will fit just fine. Just ignore the fact it has a Turbidity sensor, you can’t connect that anyway.

    You must live in a different world to me, have had loads of OC and SC heaters gone over the years, can change them with eyes closed.
    At one point I ordered 2 of each one I changed so as to have one in stock for the next time but never seem to need the same one twice, therefore have one or two on the shelves that never seem to fit any models I come across despite appearing identical.
