Bosch Dishwasher repeatedly reporting error E17 after a few minutes of running
Fairly easy repair, with the hardest part getting the appliance out of the cabinet. Kill the power and get the dishwasher out. Once out, the water inlet assembly (a large, white, opaque plastic box) is on the left side of the dishwasher, exposed and surrounded by the sound insulation. Pull back the insulation and use pliers to disconnect the small, white water inlet tube (hard to remove, you may need to pry a bit with a flathead screwdriver). Once that's off, look on the back left of the dishwasher for the valve access, which is mounted on a plastic snap-in tab. It was easiest to snap this out by reaching into the dishwasher from the side and squeezing the tab on the assembly with my fingers. Once it's out, remove the electrical connection from the old valve access by squeezing the tab. Unscrew the incoming water hose (from water service), and squeeze the clamp to remove the smaller white hose. Then go in reverse to reassemble: connect the white hose to the valve access and clamp. Connect the water service (make sure the threads take and it's solidly hand-tightened). Connect the small electrical plug. Snap the panel back into the back of the dishwasher. Connect the small white hose back to the water inlet assembly on the left side of the dishwasher and clamp. Test if you can, then put insulation and appliance back in. This totally eliminated my E17 errors.

Poor cleaning of dishes and calcium build up on filter
I watch utube to assess the problem then took eveything apart and saw the build up on the filter, which i had never cleaned. I tried to clean it but was unsuccessful so order the filter from partselect and it came within a couple of days, installed very easily and began to clean as it always had.

Door would drop down fast when opening the door
Watched the short video on replacing the springs. each side only took a couple of minutes to replace once the dishwasher was pulled out from the cabinet. I was lucky and had ample slack in the electric, water supply, and drain line.

dishwasher not emptying tub, dirty dishes when the dishwasher said the cycle was done
easy repair, but the check valve wasn't the problem, it was the float switch that isn't on the tech sheet in the dishwasher or mentioned as a possible culprit anywhere I could find on the internet

There was a roller missing from the lower washing rack.
There were 5 rollers still in place so I used them to show me how to snap the replacement roller in place.

One Door Spring on the Dishwasher Broke
The installation of the door springs was easier than I thought it would be. The Springs themselves included an extra metal tab, which made it so they could slip into the dishwasher body, without the need for additional plastic pieces, like the original springs. This was ideal because the way in which the spring plastic end broke would have made replacement very difficult. That said, the video instructions for our model dishwasher were inaccurate. There was no way to disconnect the power and water, as indicated in the video. This did make me think twice before pulling the dishwasher out. Luckily the electrical and water connections were long enough such that we could slide the dishwasher out to repair the springs. Also, fortunately, we didn't have to slide it out as far as was indicated in the video. Connecting the ropes was a little tricky, but by attaching the rope to the spring and pulling the rope with a pliers to extend the spring, this allowed me to hook the clip on the door. All in all, the process was easy. It just would have been better if the video actually reflected the work,

Dishwasher door spring broke
This was an easy repair to make on this model of Bosch dishwasher with this kit. I watched a YouTube video describing this repair before I purchased the parts, and I didn’t have to go through many of the steps described in the video. I began by removing the two screws holding the dishwasher under the countertop and eased it out from its enclosure. The rope with the broken plastic clip was easy to find on one side of the dishwasher without removing any shields or having to flip the dishwasher on it’s back. I removed the old spring, attached the new rope and plastic clip to the new spring, routed the rope around the pullies and pushed the new spring in place. I did the same thing on the other side while it was out. I also spent some time leveling the dishwasher with the leveling feet while I had it pulled out too. Easy repair.

My flow tube had a hole in it
Initially, I received an E15 error. I evaluated for leaks but couldn't find anything except for water in the bottom of the dishwasher after about 30 minutes of the initial cycle. After discovering the hole in the flow tub, I order the part. It came a few days later & replace the part within a 15 minutes of receiving it. I didn't think it would resolve the issue but it did. Thank you!

Be careful to anchor the spring carefully
I disconnected the water, power, brackets, and drain and then slid out the washer. Replacing the springs and related cords is easy in and of itself. Common sense will tell you how to do it once you see it. Each spring comes with a metal retainer(?) which has to be removed prior to installation. Why it is there is a mystery. The old spring does not have it, and the new "Cord" will not attach to the old spring so you have to replace it to fit the new "Cord." I also took the opportunity to replace the water line and valve.
The disappointment came with one of the springs. One end of each spring is held in place by the plastic side frame, which in one case was in the process of disintegration or perhaps damaged in original manufacture. In any event, the plastic let-go and the new spring shot forward into the "Guide" (part 0528) and broke it in two. I have ordered new "Guides" but I will have to fabricate some way to attach the spring to the plastic frame. I hope you don't have to go through that. So be very careful replacing the springs.

The vinyl coating on one post on the upper dishwasher rack was damaged, which made the post start to rust rapidly.
The new rack arrived nearly ready to install. The brackets and wheels that connect the rack to the track in the dishwasher were already on the new rack when it was delivered. All I had to do was move some plastic parts from the old rack to the new rack. This is very easy and does not require any tools since the parts snap onto the racks. It's worth taking a moment to study the way each part is attached to the old rack before moving it to the new rack. Pay particular attention to exactly how & where the spray arm tube snaps to the rack. That tube took me two tries to get right. The whole operation took less than 15 minutes.

Over the years the filter became too clogged with embedded particles
Really simple. You pull out the drain filter plate and pull the filter off the support and replace. I gave everything a good cleaning and put it back in place.
