Thanks for the video. Just had the kitchen remodeled & I bought this exact model (59 yrs old & this is my 1st dishwasher) The info was very helpful, especially the connecting of the wi-fi.

Thank you. This video was very helpful. I just replaced my Bosch dishwasher of 24 years with a new Bosch 500 series. Never had to have repair in 24 years of service. The circuit board went out so I replaced. Thanks again for your most excellent video. 😊

Glad it was helpful. Our last Bosch lasted us 15 years.

Thanks for this video. I struggled a bit with the wifi connection but would have been a hair pulling experience without your help ! Will be running for the first time tonite. My wife is going to want to use the panel buttons only. I hope to create a favorite setting that works the best for most washes. Fingers crossed. :)

I see your washer only came with 1 utensil basket. Mine too. We will want to use these in the manner we did with our old washer, and 1 of these is not enough. The top rack will be used for large cooking spatulas, plastic spoons, tongs etc. Im waiting to hear back from Bosch but my store sample had 2 and they appear to be sold in pairs on their website. Ill edit this when, and if, i hear from them

I’ve never seen them with two. Would two even fit?

In the video, the counter hides the top panel. Shouldn't the lights on the top panel stay on after choosing start? From the owners manual it looks like the time left should be illuminated as well as the light for when everything is "clean" at the end of the cycle. Could this be one way where you wouldn't need to use app?
@retrotechandelectronics26 күн бұрын
The running indication is the light on the bottom. That’s why they included it. I guess if it was desired it install it sticking out it may work but the sides maybe exposed

New 500 dishwasher installed 2 days ago. Any way to control cycles, auto air, etc. without the app?

If youve set it as a favorite, you can select it from the front panel, Other than that it would be difficult.

This machine does not have an open bottom cavity. Its almost flush to the floor and its Impossible to get an eye on the water connection to check for leaks. With the plastic connection back there, a visual confirmation would be really nice to have.

I had the same issue , I turned on the water and checked for leaks prior to installation.

Will the dishwasher work if I do not want to connect the WiFi?

Yes. It will work fine. The app allows for more convenience

Enjoyed your video. Just had this dishwasher installed today. Unfortunately, the WiFi button wouldn't come on no matter how long I held the button.... so far I am disappointed in this machine.
@retrotechandelectronicsАй бұрын
When this happens shut off machine. Turn back on. Then hold down power button to factory default machine. Then hold remote button when default is completed to enable WiFi

@retrotechandelectronics I did that soon after commenting and was able to get connected. Perhaps my installer- husband-had pushed too many buttons before I tried. 🤷♀️

Your 90 degree water connection should face the sink….

It cannot as the water hole in the cabinet was cut too low , the length allows it to wrap around without stress

Watch out!! I have been doing the same thing with all my old equipment..buying BOSCH. But they started with their "globalism" about 7 years ago and began outsourcing a lot of the manufacturing to Mexico. And of the BOSCH equipment I had that was made in Mexico..they all failed prematurely. Fortunately, I now ask where the unit was made..and if it's not built largely in Germany..I don't buy it.

Aren't Bosch 500 and 800 series dishwashers made in the US?
@wxfieldАй бұрын
@@srcultureshock Those are both North American models, and yes they are assembled in New Bern, North Carolina. However the pumps, racks, valves and hoses are manufactured in Juárez, Chihuahua. You really have to dig and/or have a friend in the repair/warranty/service trades to let you know which models to get and to stay away from. Honestly, if you didn't know anybody that has that knowledge..I would either dig around on youtube for someone that might, or just walk into a repair/parts place and tell them straight-up "I need to buy a new dishwasher..I'm thinking Bosch..which models should I stay away from?"

And if you break down the individual components, parts seemingly made in one country will be made of components from several others. Its impossible at this point to ascertain actual origin.
