SHX68T55UC/07 Bosch 800 series dishwasher - inside tub filling with water, slow leak?


Recommended Posts

If I run the dishwasher it's fine for a day or two, but I notice it fills up with water slowly. It seems to have a slow leak from the left side. This is the water inlet valve I believe.

There is no water under the dishwasher at first, but it eventually does and then the safety feature kicks in and it continues to cycle.

Ideas on a single part that's the culprit? Trying to see if this is a quick fix or if I should just buy a newer model.

Thanks

Likely a weeping water inlet valve. Once the water starts to spill over the tub it drains to the base pan float switch that starts the flood protocol. They're cheap and relatively easy to replace. The only other way water may be getting in might be back feeding from the drain hose but this is unlikely.

Turn the water off to the dishwasher over night and check it in the morning after you clean the water from the flood pan. This will prove it's the valve.

Turn off the breaker before you touch it though. Just saying in case you don't know. There's no second chances with water and electricity.
