Bosch SMS3042GB/03 heater element search

[sebrof]

hi
i’ve got a venerable Bosch dishwasher that has run perfectly for over 15 years! It’s now shorting out my house’s power and I guess it’s the heating element that’s gone. The problem is that I can’t find anywhere that does spares for this old girl. Anyone know a good site that I can go to?
Thanks!

15 year old Bosch should have model info on the casing surround at approximately the one o’clock position.

You could always test the heater to confirm you know 😀
The older Bosch used to suffer from damage to the loom at the point where the door and loom pivotted, some bare wires even burnt a hole through the stainless 😯
Has to be worth a check there if heater tests ok.
Un plug appliance if you are to investigate :plug:

Hi
If it turns out to be the heater it is p/no 282746 possibly available for spares@ukwhitegoods.co.uk but due to age it may be obsolete 😕

Part shouldn’t be obselete, however if you can’t get it through Appliance Care or the Bosch web site http://www.bshappliancecare.com/Bosch/boschspares.html
(then click on QuickFinder to open the spares section and type in your model number), a decent spares supplier should be able to give you the Hotpoint equivalent (as they used the Bosch dishwashers at that time) which I have always found to be cheaper than the Bosch labelled item (identical apart from part number label)
