How to Fix Bosch Dishwasher Error G
Error Code: G Difficulty: Hard

Problem: Diverter triac fault on the main control board (PCB).

How to Fix G Error (Step-by-Step)
1. Disconnect the dishwasher from power by turning off the circuit breaker or unplugging it from the wall outlet.
2. Open the dishwasher door and remove the Torx screws located around the inner door panel.
3. Separate the outer door panel from the inner door panel to expose the main control board (PCB).
4. Before disconnecting any wires, take a clear photo of the control board and all its connections to use as a reference for reassembly.
5. Carefully disconnect all wire harnesses attached to the old control board. Pay attention to any locking tabs on the connectors.
6. Remove the screws or release the clips holding the old control board in its housing and remove it.
7. Install the new control board, ensuring it is securely seated, and then reconnect all wire harnesses by referring to the photo you took earlier.
8. Reassemble the door panels, secure them with the Torx screws, restore power to the dishwasher, and run a test cycle to ensure the error is cleared.

Bosch Dishwasher Error G: Use the code, light, or symbol as the starting clue, then confirm what the dishwasher actually does before ordering parts.
1. 1. Turn power off before opening panels, reaching into the sump, touching wiring, or checking the pump, heater, valve, sensor, latch, or control area.
2. 2. Confirm whether the display is a normal cycle/status symbol or a recurring fault that interrupts filling, washing, draining, drying, locking, or control response.
3. 3. Start with the wash path: filter, sump debris, spray-arm movement, circulation-pump sound, wiring, and control output.
4. 4. Clean the filter and sump, check spray-arm movement, verify water supply, inspect the drain hose and sink connection, and correct any visible blockage before replacing parts.
5. 5. Run a short test cycle and watch where it fails; the exact stage matters more than the displayed word or symbol by itself.
6. 6. Replace a part only after the same symptom repeats and the model-specific checks point to that part category. Match any replacement to the complete Bosch model number on the door tag.
If the issue returns after these checks, match replacement parts to the complete Bosch dishwasher model number from the door tag. The same display clue can point to different components depending on the exact model and when the failure appears.

How to Fix Bosch Dishwasher Error H
Error Code: H Difficulty: Hard

Problem: Indicates a heating problem, which could be due to a faulty heating element, thermostat, or a wiring issue.

How to Fix H Error (Step-by-Step)
1. Disconnect the dishwasher from power by turning off the circuit breaker and shut off the water supply line, usually found under the sink.
2. Carefully pull the dishwasher out from under the counter. You may need to disconnect the drain hose and water inlet line from the house plumbing to get enough slack.
3. Lay the dishwasher on its back on a soft towel or blanket to access the components on the bottom.
4. Locate the heating element assembly and the high-limit thermostat/NTC sensor. The heating element is a circular tube, and the sensor is a small probe inserted into the sump or heater housing.
5. Visually inspect the heating element for any breaks or signs of burnout. Use a multimeter to test the element for continuity. A reading of infinity indicates a faulty element that needs replacement.
6. To replace the heating element or sensor, carefully disconnect the wire terminals. Remove any nuts or clips holding the component in place and pull it out, being mindful of any rubber seals.
7. Install the new part, ensuring any seals are properly seated to prevent leaks. Reconnect the wiring, then carefully tip the dishwasher upright, slide it back into place, and reconnect the water and drain lines.
8. Restore power and run a test cycle to ensure the dishwasher heats properly and there are no leaks.

How to Fix Bosch Dishwasher Error INTENSIVE 70°
Error Code: INTENSIVE 70° Difficulty: Easy

Problem: A symbol, often a large pot and two plates, representing a heavy-duty program that uses high temperatures and increased spray pressure for heavily soiled items.

How to Fix INTENSIVE 70° Error (Step-by-Step)
1. This symbol, often a pot and plates, means the ‘Intensive 70°’ wash cycle is selected.
2. This is a program indicator, not an error code and confirm the error stays cleared during a full test cycle.
3. This cycle uses a higher water temperature (70°C) and increased spray pressure to tackle heavily soiled dishes, pots, and pans.
4. It is the best choice for baked-on or dried-on food residue.
5. If your dishes are only lightly soiled, choose a different program like ‘Eco’ or ‘Auto’ to save water and energy.
6. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.
7. Check for simple blockages (lint screen, drain path, or filter) and clean anything you find.

Problem: Faulty thermostat sensor (NTC).

How to Fix K Error (Step-by-Step)
1. Disconnect the dishwasher from power and water. Turn off the circuit breaker and shut off the water supply valve, typically located under the sink.

How to Fix Bosch Dishwasher Error SUPERSILENCE PLUS
Error Code: SUPERSILENCE PLUS Difficulty: Easy

Problem: This is not a display code but a program name indicating a quieter operation cycle.

How to Fix SUPERSILENCE PLUS Error (Step-by-Step)
1. Understand that ‘SuperSilence Plus’ is the name of a specific wash program, not an error indicator or an option you can add to other cycles.
2. Locate the program selection button or dial on your dishwasher.
3. Cycle through the available programs until you see ‘SuperSilence Plus’ or a corresponding symbol (often a ‘Q’ or similar quiet indicator) light up on the display.
4. This program is designed for extremely quiet operation, making it ideal for running at night or in open-plan living spaces.
5. Be aware that to achieve the lower noise level, this cycle uses lower spray pressure and may have a longer duration than standard programs.
6. If you do not wish to use this quiet cycle, simply select any of the other available wash programs.
7. Turn the appliance off, wait about 2 minutes, then turn it back on.

How to Fix Bosch Dishwasher Error AUTO 45° – 65°
Error Code: AUTO 45° – 65° Difficulty: Easy

Problem: The dishwasher automatically adjusts the temperature and wash time based on how dirty the dishes are.

How to Fix AUTO 45° – 65° Error (Step-by-Step)
1. Understand that ‘AUTO 45° – 65°’ signifies the automatic wash cycle is active.
2. This is an intelligent cycle that uses sensors to determine how dirty your dishes are.
3. The dishwasher will automatically select the best water temperature and cycle duration for optimal cleaning and efficiency.
4. This is a commonly used, energy-efficient setting for mixed loads of dishes.
5. If this cycle is selected, you can simply press ‘Start’ to begin washing.
6. If you want to use a different cycle, press the ‘On/Off’ button to power the dishwasher off and then on again.
7. Use the program selection button to choose a different cycle that better suits the load.

What to Check Next on This Bosch Dishwasher

Bosch Dishwasher Error AUTO 45° – 65°: Use the code, light, or symbol as the starting clue, then confirm what the dishwasher actually does before ordering parts.
1. 1. Turn power off before opening panels, reaching into the sump, touching wiring, or checking the pump, heater, valve, sensor, latch, or control area.
2. 2. Confirm whether the display is a normal cycle/status symbol or a recurring fault that interrupts filling, washing, draining, drying, locking, or control response.
3. 3. Start with the wash path: filter, sump debris, spray-arm movement, circulation-pump sound, wiring, and control output.
4. 4. Clean the filter and sump, check spray-arm movement, verify water supply, inspect the drain hose and sink connection, and correct any visible blockage before replacing parts.
5. 5. Run a short test cycle and watch where it fails; the exact stage matters more than the displayed word or symbol by itself.
6. 6. Replace a part only after the same symptom repeats and the model-specific checks point to that part category. Match any replacement to the complete Bosch model number on the door tag.
If the issue returns after these checks, match replacement parts to the complete Bosch dishwasher model number from the door tag. The same display clue can point to different components depending on the exact model and when the failure appears.

How to Fix CHECK WATER LIGHT Error (Step-by-Step)
1. Press the ‘On/Off’ button to pause the dishwasher cycle.
