00496013 Bosch Dishwasher Central Control Board

Dishwasher Central Control Board

This component manages your dishwasher's primary functions. Bosch, Thermador, and Gaggenau products include this OEM control unit, designed specifically for certain Bosch models. It oversees all cycle operations through an integrated circuit board and wiring harness, ensuring optimal cleaning performance.

A malfunctioning control unit may cause cycles to stop prematurely or prevent the washing and drying functions from starting. Long-term exposure to moisture inside the dishwasher can also lead to water leaks, indicating the need for a replacement.

Common reasons for a faulty control unit include regular wear and tear from prolonged use. Over time, component degradation can disrupt the cycle's reliability, necessitating a replacement.

Indicators of a defective control unit include:

- Incomplete cycles, resulting in unclean dishes
- Non-responsive cycle or setting buttons and display
- Improper cleaning due to faulty cycle monitoring

This OEM Bosch part is also compatible with certain Thermador, Siemens, and Miele dishwashers. It addresses symptoms such as a non-responsive touchpad.
