  • In today's video I will be showing how I've just replaced the drain pump and door seal on my 10 year old Bosch integrated dishwasher.
    With the dishwasher so old, I gave a lot of thought to whether it was actually worth fixing, but I'm SO pleased I did, because not only was it very enjoyable, but I believe I'll now get at least another few years out of a machine that will cost £500 to £1000 to replace - and all that for £77 - an approximate £130 saving on if I had got an engineer out. So check out my video and get ready to carry out your own repair!!

    Fantastic, Charlie, you just saved me £750! I was all set to go and buy a new Bosch dishwasher when my 15 year old Neff one (identical to yours) failed to empty the dirty water, but used your tip to clear the impeller on the pump and all is good, now working again. Didn't even need to replace the pump! Great video, glad I found it!

    An oldie, but a goodie. I was able to sort out the drain pump not working by getting in under the dishwasher the way you showed. Hair and bits of steel wool accumulated from 10 years of washing had wound around the impaler, which I was able to unwind out. Your pictures are so clear. Thank you for posting!

      @CharlieDIYte  3 года назад

      Thanks John. Yes, so many manufacturers have very similar components. I recently had a problem with the float valve not draining the machine - it was like it was sticking. So out it came into its side again and I bought a new float from Bosch, which came with a small micro switch. When I took the old one out you could see a slight burn on one of the switch wires. With the new one in, problem solved - just in case you encounter something similar.

  • @paulrowley71

    Another good practical video Charlie. Like you I have done numerous fixes to my Bosch Dishwasher over the years, and my kitchen fitter didn’t fit the aluminium panel and botched the door panel fitting with standard wood screws. Nothing like completing a full dishwasher overhaul. You realise how much daily hammer these appliances get. 👍🏼

    • @CharlieDIYte
      @CharlieDIYte  4 года назад +2

      Thanks Paul. Completely agree. In a world where systems are key and we have so few in our family lives, I often think that dishwashers are the one system that we have in place that we couldn't do without. We've been seriously struggling without it these last couple of weeks, and just yesterday I had to order a new mesh filter, because the old one had split, which probably didn't help the pump much!

    @normanboyes4983 4 года назад +2

    Charlie that was an excellent video and I can only imagine how much fun you had doing that.😉
    I think your kitchen fitter let you down with the installation of the dishwasher and was probably flummoxed by the granite top. He may not have actually experienced how hot these dishwashers get and the steam impingement under the worktop. My kitchen fitter left the standard 600 mm space for me to install my old integrated dishwasher - except when I went to fit it and I measured it was 5 mm smaller than the dishwasher😳 Too late everything was in (including worktops hob scribed end panels et al and would have been a nightmare to rejig it all. Ending up taking one unit out, taking it apart and trimming 8mm of all the cross members and horizontal top and bottom pieces with the tracksaw and then reassembling - you cannot see the join..😂
    I always fit my dishwashers with a slight gap (say 5mm) below the worktop (to allow some
    air circulation) and just set the integrated door at the required height to align with the base unit run.
    Your old pump failed because the shaft seal failed and allowed ‘process water and detritus’ into the driving end.
    I am curious why you did not buy the door seal from Bosch and the pump from the other internet seller - saving yourself 25%? 🤔
    Anyhoo good call on doing the repair if it survives another 2-3 years you are well ahead of the game.👍

    Thanks Charlie. Congrats on dealing with that mess. Looked horrendous. We have a Miele non-integrated machine. Over the last year or so I've noticed stinky wastewater intermittently backs up in it when not in use. Most of the time it doesn't rise high enough to trigger the anti-flood mechanism so it just sits there looking and smelling gross. Doesn't seem to be any discernable pattern to it. Also, it very occasionally seems to leak from somewhere under the rear at the back (when not in use). The machine is in the corner of the kitchen and we know it's leaked when the carpet at the edge of the adjacent living room soaks up the water from under the stud wall. :-) The water leak when it happens doesn't seem smelly so might have two separate issues. Looks like I might have to open our machine up soon.

    • @CharlieDIYte
      @CharlieDIYte  4 года назад +1

      Thanks Neil. Yes, sounds like you've got a similar problem. You want to get on top of that as it will be making the living areas a bit damp. Make sure you regularly clean the filters, click off that white cover I showed to make sure you've not got any food or other stuff caught in the pump impeller, and maybe give it an empty run and have a closer look at what's going on. Also, it's worth unclipping the waste pipe to make sure you haven't got any blockages in it. Sounds like that could be one of the problems. I stress I'm not a dishwasher expert, but you learn quite a lot immersing yourself in a job like this 👍

      Couldn't agree more, Michael and I edited a bit out in the middle where I was complaining about that! There's a door catch on our Belling oven that I had to take most of the oven apart to replace. I was complaining to an engineer about it a while later and he said it was the hardest component of all to replace and he said he did it by unscrewing the old one, letting it fall into the back of the oven and then dangling the new one on a string down inside the oven and swinging it around to get the screws to locate into it as it dangled there.

A funny story, I thought my Belling electric oven with gas hob had died, and when the engineer came round I have rarely been more embarrassed when I suddenly remembered the spur switch I had checked was the wrong one and someone had simply switched the oven off !! Luckily he had another thing to fix on it, and I saved some face when I told him I had replaced the door catch and was I being stupid in having had to take half the oven apart to get to it. I had started videoing it but gave up because it was getting ridiculous. He said replacing the door catch was literally the hardest thing to do on the oven and that the only way he had found to do it was to take the hob off and dangle a new catch down the inside on a string and try and grab it from the front.

      To be honest, that Valspar is pretty hopeless stuff. It's chipped in so many places. My advice would be a) give it a good degrease with sugar soap before you start b) give the units a light sand with some 180 grit sand paper to give them a good key c) use Zinsser BIN to prime them d) then for the top coat, have a trawl through the comments to my vid as there are some great suggestions - like www.tikkurila.co.uk/decorative_paints and Bedec MSP, or you could just get a good durable acrylic eggshell from Johnstones or even an oil based if you want it to be even harder wearing. The pros use a 2 part system, I believe.

    Great video. The main lesson here is never buy a machine with a plastic tub! Unfortunately they're increasingly common :( Dishes don't seem to come out as dry either although using rinse aid (not expensive combo tablets) helps. Our last 2 kitchen companies threw in a "free" dishwasher with no reduction if we didn't take it. Luckily last time around it was a progress (rebadged Electrolux) and has a steel tub and easy to replace push on side and bottom door seals with no need for any disassembly.

    • @CharlieDIYte

      Great observation my friend. I didn't even realise steel tubs were a thing, but I'll be making that a must, for the next machine, whenever that is. Out of interest was that machine of yours free standing or integrated? The integrated seem a lot less easy to disassemble 👍

    I make a point of cleaning the filter in the base at least every month and using a bottle of supermarket own dishwasher cleaner. when my pump / heater unit was replaces under warranty it was as clean as a whistle. the other thing to avoid is over or excessive use of rinse aid. With modern 3 part tablets it has very little use and used in excessive quanties it can cause excessive foaming.

    • @CharlieDIYte
      @CharlieDIYte  4 года назад

      That's a good point about the rinse aid, Paul, having just topped mine up this afternoon, although I am using Ecover tablets (less powerful) in a futile effort to keep the bacteria alive in the septic tank...

  • @davidpriest5253
    @davidpriest5253 4 года назад

    Thanks for the video Charlie, very informative as usual. I have had to have my integrated dishwasher out recently, as one of the door spring ties failed. Dishwashers do seem to be designed to trap a lot of crap don't they, mine not being a Bosch unit but very similar in concept. As the parts were quite expensive and the machine pretty old, did you consider replacing the machine?

    • @CharlieDIYte
      @CharlieDIYte  4 года назад +1

      Hi David. Yes, I did a bit of soul searching on this, as the lady on the phone at Bosch said the parts for a 10 year old machine like mine would probably only be available for a few more years. So I thought, I'll buy a new one, but when I found out I'd be looking at somewhere between £500 and £900 I thought I'd chance my luck with £77 of spare parts. I'm pretty confident with the repairs it will last another few years, but we shall see....

    Love your video. It gives me hope..... My Bosch Series 100 DW won't drain. There is no debris in filter or impeller as the impeller moves when turned by hand. There is no hum when lifting the float although some residual water sort of spits in the filter well. There is power to the unit, I believe, since the controls light up on the control panel. I"ve ordered a new pump after watching your video. Could the pump be burned out? Do you think replacing the pump will fix the problem? Thoughts?

    • @CharlieDIYte
      @CharlieDIYte  3 года назад

      Let's hope so. It concerned me that there was no hum, but maybe the water spitting is evidence there's power to the pump, and I think you've done the right thing because the price of the pump is considerably less than a call out and if that isn't the problem, at least then you'll know. Good luck with the repair. Let me know if it works. 🤞🏻

    My 13 year old Whirlpool Dishwasher vents steam through a small vent on the front of the door above the handle and controls. If I hadn't been standing in front of it during the dry cycle one day I probably wouldn't have ever noticed. That wouldn't have been possible on your unit since it's designed to be integrated with your cabinets.

    • @CharlieDIYte
      @CharlieDIYte  2 года назад

      It could be the pump has burnt out? Does it kick in if you pull the mushroom shaped cover (float switch) up in the bottom of the machine. If you can hear it but nothing happens then the pump is jammed. Or you could have a leak like I did which might have burnt out the float switch. Or its the control board?

      Hi there Charlie.
      Please can you help me.
      We had a problem with our pressure control valve on our geyser so my hubby went and bought a new one at our local build it store and fitted it himself.
      Ever since he fitted it, whenever we run the hot tap in the bathroom only, the overflow pipe drips slightly. He has been up in the roof numerous times to see if theres leaking and theres nothing. The drip tray is bone dry, the pipes are all dry. No leaks anywhere. Its only when we run the hot bathroom tap.
      And it only drips for less than a minute then stops.
      A local DIY guy here said some pressure valves do that but we have never known that to happen before. HELP please.
      Thanks so much
