Re: Bosch Water Problem

Well, Clyde, if you really want to know…
I “evicted” its lifeless body with a pair of tongs.
It appeared to have electrocuted itself during one of the “on” cycles.
Most depressing.

Re: Bosch Water Problem

Problem solved.
A mouse had made a nest of the float in the bottom of the pan. Literally chewed up the styrofoam float and nested in it.
The intermittent cycling of the dishwasher must have been related to the mouse’s daily schedule of activity, causing the float to be up or down depending on whether the occupant was sleeping or out foraging.
After a successful (permanent) eviction, the Bosch is working fine now.
Thanks again, Martin, for your help.

Re: Bosch Water Problem: Recurs

The Bosch successfully completed one cycle.
Then it became stuck in the drain mode.
The pump runs continuously; if you pour water into the sump it drains it all out but does not shut off.
Does this sound like the float pressure switch is faulty?
Thanks, Martin, for your advice.

Thanks, Martin, for the tip.
The Bosch is off the dole!
