BROKEN CORD, PART OF DOOR COUNTERWEIGHT
REMOVED DISHWASHER FROM CABINET. DETACHED BASE FROM BODY OF THE DISHWASHER. INSTALLED NEW CORD, REATTACHED BASE TO BODY OF DISHWASHER AND REINSTALLED IN CABINET. OPINION: THIS IS A LENGTHY REPAIR AND UNNECESSARY ONE. THE CORD IS PART OF THE DOOR COUNTERWEIGHT AND SUBJECT TO TENSION EVERY TIME THE DOOR IS OPENED, AS WELL AS POTENTIAL CHAFFING DUE TO PROXIMITY TO VARIOUS METAL PARTS, AND VIBRATION. THE CORD SHOULD BE MADE OF STRONGER MATERIAL AND ARMORED OR ALLOWED MORE CLEARANCE. BOSCH SHOULD FIX TO LAST THE LIFE OF THE DISHWASHER.

Missing Tine Holders on upper/lower dish rack.
The old Tine holders used on the upper and lower dish rack dried up and cracked/broke. So I purchased new Tine holders for the upper and lower racks and snapped the new parts in place.

Water was leaking below the door. The gasket that seals the door shut was torn from wear and needed replacement
I removed the old gasket easily, it pulled right out. I spent a few minutes cleaning the gunk out from the seam using a standard kitchen cleaner (it was gross and I had to do it multiple times). Tip: pay attention to the shape of the gasket and which side faces in vs. out when pulling out the old one. Also, for reference, take a photo of the old gasket and how it's positioned before pulling it out. Then, simply start at the bottom (either side) and insert the new gasket. Work your way up, over and down the other side. If it's facing the right way it'll go in very easily, if not is will be very difficult—this is how you'll know. After installation, run your dishwasher empty for a full cycle (with towel underneath the door) and check back frequently during the cycle. If there are no leaks you're done. This was the fastest, easiest way to attempt to fix a leaky door and eliminate the gasket as the problem (which it did!) If the machine still leaks the issue is likely something bigger.

Water leak on top of door.
Went to on line video and followed it. The old gasket came right out and the new one fit right in. Started at the top middle and worked the gasket in on both sides to make sure it was evenly spaced.

Dishwasher racks kept collapsing
Dishwasher racks are maddening. It takes years to understand how to make your dishes fit within your dishwasher. We just moved and nothing was working so I did something that I did not want to do--pay attention to the lower rack and figure out why it had a mind of its own. Well, the Bosch interior is filled with adjustable (that usually means problems) fingers. Well, it was not so. A piece was missing that supported the "hand" from which the fingers sprang. That support piece cost about a buck and was available and ultimately on my doorstep in a day or three. Take the part out of the bag, snap it on the hand and enjoy dish racks that don't flop around. Awesome indeed.

When I checked the drain filter to clean, I noticed the plastic supports were broken and the micro screen had collapsed.
I took out the old filter and replaced it with the filter I had ordered. Very easy and not necessary to call a repairman.

Water was leaking into the dishwasher when it was not running and leaking onto the floor
Disconnected the water and power, pulled dishwasher out from under the counter, unscrewed the old inlet valve, disconnected hose from exit of inlet valve, noted the placement of the wires and disconnected them. Installed new inlet valve in reverse order and reinstalled dishwasher.

Overfill then no fill
Remove bottom kick plate and raise the feet up. Remove attachment from the top to counter. Slide out. Facing the unit, remove left hand side sheet metal cover. The unit is behind this cover. Unhook the hose on the lower end. Pop the new one in and hook it up!! Test on quick rinse and see results. If ok return to normal as disassembled. Make sure to level the unit after tucking it back in. Enjoy!!

Chronic water leakage
Replaced ‘sump’ housing , seal was leaking on it- replaced inop float on water level warning system switch, and switch itself as well- replaced drain pump motor attached to sump- replaced o-ring seal at water sprayer inlet valve- replaced water inlet plastic assemble on side of dishwasher- replaced drain hose out of sump assembly.
Used YouTube video to understand repair- this is an involved repair in time and complexity- dishwasher eventually gets turned upside down once removed and stripped down, to remove the white plastic water pan , which then allows access to the guts of all the above parts- some critical seals only come with new assemblies, so you are buying that new part to get a new seal and ensure no new leaks from what you took apart.
