Re: Bosch dishwasher SGS09L08 not draining
Hi again,
Have just had a further look at the sump and now see the black rubber flap you mention (thought the top of this was a seating seal for the impeller cover!).
Will have a go at cleaning the transfer tube after purchasing an appropriate bottle cleaner although is does feel (as far as my finger will go) fairly clean.
Did a Quick Wash and water mostly drained OK although it has done this before and left water the next time it is used. Will see how it goes.
Once again, many thanks for the advice.

Hi Trilobite,
Many thanks for this detailed reply.
I have already (several times) had the cover off the drain impellar to check there is nothing caught in this area. What I am unable to see is this “black rubber flap”, my machine does not seem to have this feature. By the way have found that a basting siphon is ideal for removing the small amount of excess water left in the impellar sump.
When you mention the sump wall, do you mean in the same area as the impellar. Sorry if this question seems a bit daft but am unable to see this transfer tube in the impellar sump area.
Have been using the dishwasher cleaner (Finish one) for several months now (on the Auto Super Wash) so this should have kept the machine clear to some degree.
Thanks again for the response.

Re: Bosch dishwasher SGS09L08 not draining
yes, it is connected to the sink with an inverse “U” prior to the connection. It is odd because the excess water can be drained away using the “drain” option (sometimes takes a couple of attempts) which appears if a programme is started and then immediately interrupted by opening the door.
The arrangement for the outlet hose is the same as I have used for the last 15 years. The previous dishwasher was also a Bosch and was still going OK after 12 years when we decided it could be getting to the end of its life.
