How To: Bosch/Thermador/Gaggenau Water Inlet Valve 00628334

[@khgreenwald]

🎉🎉🎉 There are no Bosch dishwasher repair services in my area. It took me a great deal of research to troubleshoot the problem first dishwasher water would not drain. Only after replacing my garbage disposal, did I find the drain hose was filled with gunk. I used a shop vac to suck out debris. Ok, now, the dishwasher drained great, but would not fill. Again, headed back to KZbin to find solution. I found this video, ordered the part, and followed directions to replace part. Excellent video. Step by step directions made replacing inlet valve tackle-able. The PRO tip to use a hair dryer to soften tube made this job 1000 times easier. Thank you.

Your video was perfect! Thank you! I watched it twice and took care of this repair myself.

[@appliancepartspros]

You are welcome! If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.

[@brianm9134]

Perfect, thank you. Very helpful, methodical, camera was great and details were in focus. My dishwasher model differed slightly but not enough to cause more than a moment's confusion. Bought the part from your shop. Shipping was cheaper than any other alternative (sorry, I looked!) and the part was in hand in under 48 hours despite ordering on a Sunday night. Absolutely blown away.

[@appliancepartspros]

So glad the video was helpful! Let us know if you have any questions!

[@jenniferguberney1359]

This was an amazing video and so helpful. I assessed where my water was coming from and ordered the intake valve, watched this video and was able to change the valve myself. Thanks so much for making a repair so easy!

[@danielwestfall1591]

The E-15 code on our Sears Kenmore Elite dishwasher (made by Bosch) was caused by a leaking Water Inlet Valve. I followed the clear and well-filmed instructions on this video to replace it. Thanks for the help1

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad to hear that you were able to get your dishwasher working again! We are here if you need more help in the future.

[@danielb.4461]

Thank you so much for this video

[@impossible98123]

Just replaced my water valve. I tested the old one with some wires, and while i could blow a bit through it, it wasn't working well. The video was great with detailed shots and a good order of assembly. Even though I'm pretty handy, I found the video very useful. Made it easy and now the water is flowing again! I did snug the inlet 1" nut with some pliers, not much though, but just beyond hand tight. Thanks for the video!

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad we were able to assist you!

[@rickowens6959]

Was quoted $400 for an appliance service call. Ordered the part for $40 incl delivery and installed myself following step by step this video. So far so good. Everything seems to be in working order with no more drip at the inlet valve. Thanks for the DIY video!

[@joeylee7930]

Another great video from AppliancePartsPros. The clear instruction made it easy to replace the water inlet valve on my Bosch dishwasher. The most useful part of video for me was showing how to release the grey mounting bracket by lifting the tab with a screwdriver - left to my own devices I would likely have broken it trying to remove it.

[@thomasdelaney6411]

Good video. One suggestion, use hair drier to heat the hose ends before removal. Comes off easy then.

[@GordonYoung]

Yes. This is the way.

[@kevinstewartrose]

thank you!! i couldnt believe they edited out the hose removal, that’s the only part giving me real trouble.

[@khgreenwald]

🎉🎉🎉Thank you for this tip. 🎉🎉🎉

[@huckaday]

Yes! I used a heat gun and it came off easily. (And went back on as well) Just don't over heat/melt it! Lol I also only disconnected the hoses on the end closest to the part. (Not both)

[@ericr.w.9000]

Thank you very much! I knew what needed to be done, just didn’t know how to do it. Your clear instructions made it easy to follow.

[@appliancepartspros]

So glad the video was helpful! Let us know if you have any other issues.

[@mikeluke5075]

Thank you so much for this great video! So easy to follow for a flawless install. This is the second video from you that has helped me with a successful repair!

[@appliancepartspros]

You're welcome, so glad the video helped with your repair!

[@winfidel]

Excellent instructions! Explained all details without wasting a bunch of time in between.

[@appliancepartspros]

Thank you! Glad you were able to fix your issue! If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.

[@Firemah]

This is all still relevant and great. Ordered the valve part from Appliancepros and installed it almost exactly like the video. Thanks!

[@appliancepartspros]

So glad the video was helpful!

[@ryanpaulsen5603]

I am handy but never worked on a dishwasher before. I bought the part, watched this video, followed the steps, and had the dishwasher back in place in half an hour. Great instructional video!

[@jimmyschiel3863]

My problem was a mouse had chewed the wires off at the valve. The wires were too short to reach and be reconnected. I spliced in a new section and reattached my new wires to the original clip, and it worked fabulous. Thanks for the great video. I thought you might enjoy my problem as it's not usually the case.

[@appliancepartspros]

So glad you were able to fix your issue!

[@jimmyschiel3863]

@appliancepartspros yeah and I thank you again for the guidance

[@appliancepartspros]

You're welcome!

[@randywatson9787]

Excellent video and great prices as always. Tx for making DIY repair so simple. My 5 year old bosch sprung a leak, had the E15 and watertap lights on. It is now looking good

[@kgwilso]

This is a very helpful guide, thank you so much. We followed the guide exactly and it worked flawlessly.

[@sp1ffff]

Great video. Helped me fix the dishwasher and I have never even tried fixing a dishwasher before.

[@appliancepartspros]

Glad we were able to help you out. If there is anything we can help you with in the future please let us know.

[@larsgoransson2616]

Great video. Easy to follow. Ordered the part, replaced. Works great. Thank you!!

[@robbernard4342]

Thanks so much...this was a great help...replaced the inlet valve on my dishwasher and now its working perfectly...thanks again!

[@porkalicious3058]

Excellent video. I like the video shows the tools needed for the replacement. Every step is clear and concise. Thank you so much.

[@prodigalstears]

extremely helpful video...followed the steps and made the swap w/ no trouble at all...i am in canada and the sears/kenmore elite was made by bosch. your video heled me identify the part as well as swap it out...many thanks

[@ahmedlsl]

Excellent video! Had this E:15 error on an she65t55uc Bosch dishwasher. Found my part at the Reliable Laval location (North of Montreal). Loved some nice tricks like placing a wood block to raise the machine! And using soap on the connector to 'ease the pain'! Many thanks!

[@appliancepartspros]

You're welcome!

[@deebkobe]

Very helpful! Fixed our leaky dishwasher problem!

[@appliancepartspros]

[@partywithmanish]

[@renoguy25]

Great ..." EASY " to follow video You need to do another video .....to all the people that do " HOW TO DO/FIX videos ...and teach them how a how video SHOULD be done ...you know ...like the one I just watched . Thanks Kindly BOB form Calgary

[@jonathanwelke]

This video helped me fix the issue. Same part number. Thanks alot.

[@DAVADMDAVAD]

Installed today, PERFECT. Thanks again for your valuable information!

[@kevinmorgan4234]

Just what I needed and when I needed it. Thanks AppliancePartsPros

[@zenmanful]

Great video! I appreciate this so much. Only cost me $15.

[@durvishulen8086]

Thank You!!! Thank YOU!!!!!! U R an AWESOME TEACHER!!!!!!

[@appliancepartspros]

You're welcome!

[@gordonfreeman5958]

Thanks for this video. This isn't the exact same model or design as my dishwasher but the demonstration of removing the valve assembly by pressing the tab with a screwdriver helped me work out how to remove mine. Not 100% sure if that will solve my problem though - getting an E-18 error on a Bosch machine. Will try this repair if cleaning the inlet pipe and filters doesn't fix the issue.

[@jaber4life]

It’s common for these Bosch solenoids to fail and allow water into the unit while not in use.

[@appliancepartspros]

That can sometimes happen yes.

[@jaber4life]

@@appliancepartspros it is the main failure I see in the field

[@jetcityjoe8347]

Very helpful. Thank you!

[@appliancepartspros]

You're welcome!

[@adamcarriere9255]

Excellent video. Well done. It was the helping and guiding hand I needed. Thanks!

[@knuckleheadmcspazatron4939]

Thank you for posting this! Very helpful!!

[@msmca]

Excellent video Very clear to understand.

[@weanaa]

Very helpful video! Thanks!

[@rizwanholo1]

Can you please do a quick overview of those three connectors?

[@Bruce247365]

Only teouble I had was getting that electrical plug to release. Two small blue wires ended up detaching from the small plug. Any info or closeup photo on how I can reconnect the wires to the plug, so I can snap in the plug to new fill valve?

[@appliancepartspros]

Unfortunately, the manufacturer doesn't provide any information for the wire harness and how the wires are arranged in the connector. You may need to contact a tech or an electrician to fix the wires.

[@SgtZima]

Exactly what I needed, thank you!

[@andrewdentuzo8278]

4:47 did he cut that hose?

[@Pool1063]

Great video! Thank you so much for sharing the knowledge! Saved my life. :)

[@KevinBruce-t7h]

this worked great thanks for he video!

[@joshuatabor8755]

No Teflon tape needed?

[@jesslacher4512]

Thanks for putting together such a great video! 👍

[@guyk5914]

2:50 I didn’t need to remove the fill hose above where it connects to the assembly because it was so hard to remove so I left it there. However I Removed the fill hose where it connects to the fill valve easier by getting to it through the side of the dishwasher after I disconnected the wire and the water supply.

[@Jim-kg3ox]

Why do you need to remove the fill hose on the side at 2:50?

[@appliancepartspros]

This fill hose is connected to the water valve and in order to be able to remove the valve you would have to remove the fill hose on the side there.

[@huckaday]

You don't need to. I only disconnected one end (at the part) for all hoses. Also, if your waterline and hose is long enough to let you pull the machine out, you really don't need to undo both ends of all the other connections as well. (I didn't) I just turned off the water supply valve (under the sink) to the DW. Turned off the power at the breaker. Undid the 2 screws under the counter and pulled it out. (I think this video probably shows all the extra disconnections so it covers all models possibly? ) Then I only needed to disconnect the connections at the machine end, or that are connected to the faulty part, unclip the plastic mount so I can slide the part off of the bracket. Then I fed the part through to the side portal to unclip the wiring harness and I only removed the hose where its connected to the part I was removing. (I found that there was no need to undo the other end really) TIP: Heat the white hose with a hair drier, hot water, or very carefully (so not to melt or degrade the hose), with a heat gun. It's VERY difficult when it's cold to remove/replace, but VERY easy after heating/softening the hose. (Brute force not needed! 😊)

[@jimmyschiel3863]

To give you relief to remove the valve. It makes it easier on some models, to detach the hose from the valve

[@juliojauregui8839]

Thank you. It was great help!

[@marzbound]

@AppliancePartsPros Hey so I broke the blue wire harness connector. Is there some way to fix or replace it? Thanks.

[@TimKnightma]

Very well done

[@justinpumpr6589]

Hi. I replaced the part, but no the dishwasher won't turn on. No lights on the panel. Nothing. I've checked the outlet which is plugged in and working, but still nothing. Any ideas?

[@kargelr]

Woo! Thanks, KZbin, for saving my biscuits.

[@andrewdentuzo8278]

Correction - Missed the other end disconnection.

[@andrewdentuzo8278]

I did not posted any correction comment!. Someone is editing negative comments. I have replaced first valve b/c it was cracked in the middle ( valve is placed in the tight area where it is pressured against another metal part ) creating the leak, and now I am replacing this valve second time b/c I am getting code 17 ( intermittent fault 90 % of the time ). Bosch quality sucks.

[@kananbabayev3863]

I have same issue and can't do it myself. I am not so handy person.

[@tomradosevic1813]

screwed up and pulled the wires out the back of the connector....oh boy

[@tomleszczynski2862]

Thank you for the video, but the critical moment goes "cut action" where you remove the hose from the valve. Show me the whole process of screw driver and pulling (and don't mute out the cursing!).

[@kruofud]

I still don't get why the inlet is plastic while everything else (hose and connections) are all metal parts... cross threaded once, now a $1200 dishwasher is sitting in my kitchen!!

[@haglerray2658]

Lol

[@andrewdentuzo8278]

Bosch quality sucks ( plastic, plastic, plastic, plastic ), - this valve lasted 2 years, dripping water in the middle (end of white plastic and beginning of a grey part of the valve ). Without removing doors cover and front bottom cover first I would be not able to localize exact place of the leak. Got ER 15 when the float hit the sensor, however display in my Bosch is hidden so if it was standing dormant for extended period of time my socks would notify me that something is wrong. Bosch and other companies should add moderate sound warning ( beep every 5 min ) , working together with the leak float sensor.

[@tedlane9877]

Excellent video, thanks!
