Hi, all.

Our Bosch dishwasher has suffered a minor failure, and I need a replacement
part ( a spring ).

It's the spring-loaded cover on on the detergent compatrment, on the inside
of the main door.

Its stopped opening, and investigation reveals a snapped spring.

Where's the best place to find such stuff?

We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember "Ron Lowe"
ronATlowe-famlyDOTmeDOTukSPURIOUS saying something like:

If it's just come off it's holder, then look inside, in between the door
skins.

Personally, I've never heard of a spring breaking unless it has been forced
passed it's bending point. Are you sure it is not the plastic holder on the
detergent compartment that has broken off?

Best thing is contact Bosch directly
https://www.bosch-eshop.com/eshop(bD.../gb/indexs.htm and
register in their shop. Pick the part you need and your done. As far as I
see, their prices are pretty good. On a par with the repair shop prices
I've seen elsewhere.

Or here http://www.4bosch.co.uk/cgi-bin/cata...section=128593 Where
the prices look about the same as on the Bosch main site.

I always use this site for Bosch - not necessarily the cheapest, but
normally quick and efficient.

I've a horrible feeling it's a 'whole unit' at about 50 quid. Try a box
of springs from somewhere if that's the case.

BSHApplianceCare is good, as stated, and you can check the parts on
exploded diagrams.

CPC have a white/brown goods spares finder service, but you can only get
it by phone rather than on the web. If you can identify the part, then
give them a ring and see what they can do.

Yes the lid on my Bosch's dispenser failed months ago and I was aghast
at the replacement cost. However, we just kept on using the machine as
normal, but lobbing a soap tablet into the cutlery rack instead of the
dispenser. Have to say that I've noticed now problems at all with the
wash quality as a result, so am now in absolutely no hurry to repair it!

The detergent compartrment in my old dishwasher would occasionally not
open, thus doing a whole wash not very well.
I observed that at the start of the cycle there was a short pump out
of any remaining water when there is none, and the compartrment opened
immediately. So I just leave it open all the time now. Problem solved
without having to buy a spring that costs as much as a dishwasher.

Thanks to all who replied.

The e-shop at BSH Appliance Care was exactly what I needed.
I was able to find the exploded parts diagram, and parts list.

http://www.bshappliancecare.com/Bosch/boschspares.html

The spring was part of a 2-piece set, along with a bit of bent plastic.
Total cost £2.50. ( VAT + postage pushed it up to £7! )

Still, it's ordered.

Now, I just need to figure out how to fit the spring and re-mount the
sliding door at the same time. It may take some considerable dexterity (
and perhaps little fingers ) :-)
