SHI6806 Bosch Dishwasher - Instructions

I have granite countertops and one of the hold down brackets broke to wood cabinet side mount. Easy and fast repair to remove old brackets, pull out dishwasher, and I replaced both brackets with new, and new wood screws. New installation looks better than original done 18 years ago. Very easy to do and saved a lot of money if I had an appliance repair company do it.

I just removed the lower panel according to the manual, but the easier way is to remove the upper control unit by lifting upward. The difficulty with removing the lower panel is that the heavy-duty plastic pieces at the door hinge area are prone to falling out while trying to reattach the heavy lower panel. Replacing the control unit was very easy. All of the connectors have small locks on the back sides. Spreading the plastic locks for the control unit itself lets it come right out. The new unit just snaps in. Just be sure each connector plug is seated and locked. It takes longer to describe it than to do it.

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.

I snapped the part in and voila!

Everything went great installing the new drain pump. Our dishwasher works like it’s brand new again. I would recommend part select to anyone that needs to repair their dishwasher parts or any applications parts.

shut off water, pull dishwasher out, took side insulation off, unhooked what was connected to the float switch and replaced the new with the old. Reconnected everything and put insulation back and wa-la , all done

Dishwasher door won’t stay closed. Upon inspection, the metal striker/catch at the top of the door was broken. This dishwasher is 12 years old and this is the first problem I’ve had with it. To repair the catch, first remove screws holding cover plate at the bottom of the door. Next, remove screws holding the dishwasher stable from under the counter. The pull out the dishwasher to gain access to the catch. You’ll have to take a small set of pliers and bend the two tabs back that hold the catch in place. Lift the catch up and forward to remove. Replace and bend the tabs back to hold the new catch securely. Move the dishwasher back in place and secure with the screws previously removed. Put the cover plate back in place and you’re done.
