Worked initially. Now cleaning cycle is very long (3 hour +). Dishes (and inerior of dishwasher) don't get clean. All servicable filters have been cleaned. Still isn't cleaning dishes.

Hello guest. seems you have a leak in the base. Looks as though motor is washing dishes but actually its the drain pump thats been activated which doesnt allow the timer to proceed forward.

There are no adjustments for cycle timing. What does affect timing is temperature of the water coming into the DW. The hotter your supply water, the shorter the time to cycle, BUT if your water is too hot, the cycle time may become too short to light the NSF 'Sanitize' indicator. But since the cycle is taking so long, this is an indication that the DW's water heater is not heating the water hot enough to advance the countdown timer in a timely manner. The control logic is waiting for the temp to come up to an appropriate level to ensure adequate washing, rinsing or drying times. Likely your display is showing '1' for a long time as a symptom of this problem, as well.

This link http://www.applianceaid.com/boschDW.html has procedures to run self-tests on various Bosch models. I suspect that you can confirm a 'heater fault' on your unit by running the self-test.

This problem invariably relates to a 'heater fault' which has usually been traced to an open solder joint on the control board located behind the switches/indicator lights on front door. If you have a Torx driver, soldering iron & bit of solder, you can effect a repair yourself in about an hour. Otherwise, a replacement control board is required.

If you'd like to attempt replacing the control board yourself, refer to this link for part & DIY information.

Else, place a service call to the tech of your choice.

Hello- Same problem I had- It turns out that my control board (fixed once already- the solder trace on one of the three relays burned open) was junk again, but the solder trace which was fixed before was still ok, so I replaced all three relays on the board (relays are available from Digi-Key) and that fixed it!! The relays cost all of $11.00 INCLUDING SHIPPING - So if you're on a tight budget, this may work for you. Bill

The problem is hard water. Go to www.dishwasherfilter.com and get their new product. It filters the water and takes out the hard minerals that cause spots and clog dishwashers. It is very affordable and has a money back guarantee.

" expanation very clear. will give it a go and see how simple it was. thanks Ronnie " - ronnieshomes
Hello Rich - From what you have described if only some cycles are working, then there seems to be a communication problem coming from the main control panel, I would suggest contacting a professional technician to diagnose the unit.
