Most common is a burnt out inlet valve. Turn off water and disconnect power. The valve on Bosch dishwashers is at the back on the bottom panel. The water feed pipe is attached directly to the inlet valve. The valve itself iis set into a small rectangular panel that is sometimes just clipped in or held with two screws at one end. Remove this panel and disconnect the two wires on the valve and disconnect the internal feed pipe. These valves are common on Neff, Siemens and Bosch dishwashers and washing machines and generic after-market replacements can be had for less than £10 (about £25 from Bosch). If it is not a defective inlet valve it could be a defective control board in which case the the cost of replacement has to be weighed against the cost of a new machine.

There are two possible reasons. 1) there is a blockage in the end tip of the top rotary arm. Without water coming out at pressure this will prevent it from spinning. The top arm is attached to the top drawer and it can be removed by unscrewing the plastic retainer in the middle. No tools are required it's just hand tight. If there is blockage you will see it in one the end jets. Just keep flushing it under a running tap and then shaking it out. It is important to make sure that it is completely clear. The next thing is to check that the filter in the base is intact because if it is broken it will other food material to again block the arm. 2) Some modern dishwashers are designed to use less water and so the manufacturers have introduced a diverter valve that sends water to the arms alternating between top and bottom. This diverter valve is a rotary white plastic disc with apertures in it that block and open pressured water flow alternately between the pipes serving the top and bottom arms. On the Bosch,Neff and Siemens the rotary disc has two apertures that are 9mm and 18mm in diameter. This disc rotates about every ten seconds making rhythmic sloshing sound. If the motor has died it can be replaced but it might be expensive and difficult to access if the dishwasher does not have a removable floor panel set in its underside then it might be possible to access and replace the diverter motor assembly. A work around, which I have done on my own machine, is to remove the temporarily flow pipe from the middle of the inside of the dishwasher and use a torch to look down at the valve disc. Generally one or other of the two (see above) apertures in the disc will have stopped in alignment with one of the pipe connectors, the other will be blocked off by the white disc. Drill a 9mm or 3/8" hole in the disc and this will allow enough water flow to cause both arms to spin. There is only about 10mm space beneath the disc so take care just to drill the disc and not it's plastic housing. Remove all the plastic drilling waste otherwise it will be carried by the water to the rotor arms and block the end jets (see 1. Above) and so will require extensive and repeat rinsing.

Question edited to add FULL make model (what it is). Question moved from Motorcycles category!! Likely to be the main control board, but because of the cost of it, I would advise you to get a service tech in for professional diagnosis so you don't waste any more on unneeded parts.

I WOULD CALL A LOCAL REPAIR SERVICE ,MY DISHWASHER HAS 2 ARMS AND 2 LEGS

Bosch describes it as being 'painted stainless steel'. https://www.google.com/search?q=bosch+shu43c05uc/22+parts+diagram .. .

You have an issue that no one has yet encountered! Try squirting Toilet Duck Toilet cleaner in there. Wait an hour and then shoot it with a pump sprayer set to spray a jet of water. The toilet cleaner is bleach based gel and should stick and loosen the gunk.

POSSIBLY THE DOOR LOCK IS BAD

Hi Jane, water in the bottom of the dishwasher results from clogs in the filter or in the drain hose. Please make sure that you have disconnected the appliance from the mains before cleaning the filter! If your dishwasher is displaying an error code please check the meaning of the error message. https://www.justfixed.co.uk/bosch-dishwasher-error-codes/ Good luck Best, Dave

Hey Karen, Water in the bottom of the dishwasher results from clogs in the filter or in the drain hose. Before you do any work on your dishwasher, make sure that it's switched off at the mains. If cleaning your filter hasn't resolved the issue, then the next thing that could be preventing your dishwasher from draining is a blocked drain hose. Is your dishwasher displaying an error code? If you see the E25 error code on a Bosch dishwasher, that means the filter is blocked or clogged, and water cannot drain out of the machine correctly.

I assume your using steel hoses. If not, you should be. The washer inside can be worn. Replace washer. Use. Teflon tape on threads. Over tightening can cause leaks. Buy new hoses.

Usually when a capacitor for a start / run function on an AC motor fails, you will hear a buzzing sound from the motor and it will cause the motor to overheat.

The hinges are out of line.

Is there an error code or lights present when it stops?

A malfunction has occurred. You won’t be able to fix this problem.

I have been told to replace the timer which I am looking to do the same to my machine!

For Bosch Dishwasher Ascenta models, open the door to reset it. Hold the Start-Reset button for about 5 seconds or until the Active indicator turns off. Shut the door of the dishwasher to allow it to thoroughly drain before turning it off. This should reset the cycle drain.
