What to Check Next on This Bosch Dishwasher Bosch dishwasher symptom: Use the symbol or code as a starting point, then match the repair path to what the dishwasher is actually doing. Confirm whether the display is a normal cycle/status symbol or a recurring fault that stops operation. Check water supply, filter, sump, spray arms, drain path, and door latch before replacing electronic parts. If the same problem returns after basic checks, inspect the matching sensor, pump, heater, wiring, or control path based on the symptom.
