At least you got it sussed. It's a pity Bosch had the daftness to create a flimsy wash pump - with the heater in the same unit. Obviously the accountants had control of that design. |

So at least the G4000 did have a heater coil that could be replaced seperartly. One thing that kind of annoys me is that you can easily split the heater and pump on the BSH design, but can't buy the heater on its own. So wasteful for no reason. |

Could it be such a small clearance that the rotor shorted out on the stator ? It may not know what to call that fault but as it would have done it when it does its system check maybe that was the only thing it come up with?
Anyways sorry to have not been much help but how brilliant that you got it to work so you now have a spare DW Austin |

Yes, I do believe that is the heater element. It loops almost full circle, the shank with the spade connector protrudes through the pump fascia, at right angles to the loop of the heater. |

Huh.
I don't know if this is at all relevant, but I had to replace the drain pump on my 110 volt Bosch SHU43CU about five years ago. It's been running just fine ever since. Never did figure out what was wrong with tho old pump. Granted, it's not a wash pump, but might be an indication that Bosch pumps sometimes fail prematurely.
Over and out. |

We have a Bosch 800 series. When it was about a year or so old it was getting a 09 error which meant the water was not heating to the desired temperature. They replaced the heater/pump and it's been fine since. It's almost four years old now.
I watched what he had to do to replace it and it looked like a real pain. He pulled out the dishwasher and it looked like he had to disassemble half of the dishwasher from the right hand side I think.
The posts I read suggested that a higher sudsing detergent (I was using Cascade) could be the reason for the failure but reading some of these posts would seem to me it's a part that has a high rate of failure. |

I can tell you with my experience with my current Kenmore, it behaves just like a Bosch. |
