Re: Bosch SGS45E08GB not switching off at end of cycle
To complete the story, Bosch have now issued a UK recall, hopefully for different reasons to their US recall.

I’d love to know how many house fires it takes before a recall is done.

If moderators don’t take time to actually read posts, what chance of any sense prevailing?
This is a perfectly rude forum – I’ll not be using it.
Good luck Drakester.
Re: Bosch SGS45E08GB not switching off at end of cycle
The point of my post was to warn Drakester that even Bosch dishwashers can go on fire, specifically the control unit (very likely the source of the problem in his original post, and the detail behind the US recall). If he has the same production number as mine, I’d advise he gets rid of it.
Others can suggest a repair.

Sorry, just noticed that the Forum counts the full-stop at the end of the address as part of the hyperlink. That’s causing the error message. My fault for typing in sentences. Here it is again, on it’s own line, without a full-stop at the end.

It works fine in the preview.

I had the exact same model number of Bosch dishwasher. I never had any problems with it. However, in November 2009, it caught fire and gutted my kitchen. The production number (after the model number) was FD8403. I’m not saying your dishwasher is about to burst into flames, but I’d be suspicious of any of the electrics/electronics starting to fail.
In January 2009, Bosch, in the USA, recalled 100,000 dishwashers because of a fire hazard. See this US government website: http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml09/09100.html. I’ve been told that my production number doesn’t tie with the American ones as my dishwasher was made in the EU.
