I have a Bosch SHX46A dishwasher. �Yesterday the overhead sprayer arm fell
off.
I tried putting it on but I can't seem to connect it.
This is what all the parts look like:

Is there something broken or is there a secret to attaching the arm?
Thank you,

Looks like a snap on or twist on setup. Why not call the dealer and ask him?
Or stop at an appliance store that carries Bosch and take a peek.


That's a good idea. Slaps head for not thinking of it myself.


I had a bosch replaced because parts and service cost far too much.

anyhow thats a twist to lock arangement.


I tried that a few dozen times and that didn't work. I don't know if
the plastic parts have degraded or I'm not using the right technique.


bosch dishwashers clean the best, but the design is far too
complicated, and unreal hard to service.........

too the trash mine went............

bosch are also the least reliable of any dishwasher according to
consumer reports.


After 4 years I haven't had any mechanical problems yet (knock wood) but
the interior plastic components are designed to fail. I have had to use
over a dozen plastic tie straps to prevent the wheels from fall off and
all of the other parts like the fold downs that won't stay up. What a
piece of crap.

The dishwasher cost $600 and is ultra quiet so I'm a bit reluctant to
throw it away at this point.
