SHP65TL5UC (07) Bosch Dishwasher - Instructions

Note: The diagram and part description misled me to think that each item was a quantity of one, so I ordered two since I wanted to replace the part on each side of the door. In fact, both the cable repair kit and the guide came with a quantity of two, so have an extra set that I will likely never need. As far as the replacement, it was quick and easy. The hardest part was pulling the dishwasher out from under the cabinet.

Easily removed the old one by carefully pulling it and repeated this procedure to replace it. Total time took less than 15 minutes

just placed the basket in the rack

Mistakenly opened covers for the drain pump. Had to put those covers back in place.
Heater and pump installed easily with a bit of careful maneuvering the plugs and plug housing from the exterior. Pump installed in place easily. Clamp fit perfectly.

They just snap in

Followed the video on your site and it was an easy install with no more leakage.

The spray arm makes a slide in attachment to a slide out drawer. It was removed by forcing out of the connection on the back of the drawer and the replacement was installed by sliding it into the same connection point.

Took it apart. Snapped in the new parts. Reassembled. Nothing to it.

The instructions stated to remove the door. I spent an hour attempting to remove the door. That was an unnecessary instruction. all else worked as described. Springs were easy to install. The attachment to the door was difficult. Better instructions on how to grasp the connection to spread the spring to give the cable enough slack to attach the connection to the door.

Popped the new one right on!

1) Remove the three torx screws securing the handle.

2) Open door. Placing some cushions under the door makes the operation easier.

3) Remove the 12 torx screws securing the door skin. Note the screws are of two sizes. The lower 6 are shorter and fatter than the upper 6, that also secure the control panel.

4) It’s useful to have a 2nd person or a counterweight to secure the door once the skin is removed.

5) Remove the old handle by snapping the securing tabs.

6) New handle is press to fit.

7) Return skin to door and re-insert screws to secure.

8) Re-insert the three handle screws.

Notes

1) A three red wire cable plug was floating in the breeze when i removed the skin. I assumed it had pulled loose during removal of the skin so inserted back into the control panel but the washer would not power up with it inserted. On removal it worked fine. Not sure it it serves a model specific function.

2) It may be possible to use a car trim pry tool to remove the handle but I was concerned the stainless might be distorted.

Replaced ‘sump’ housing , seal was leaking on it- replaced inop float on water level warning system switch, and switch itself as well- replaced drain pump motor attached to sump- replaced o-ring seal at water sprayer inlet valve- replaced water inlet plastic assemble on side of dishwasher- replaced drain hose out of sump assembly.

Used YouTube video to understand repair- this is an involved repair in time and complexity- dishwasher eventually gets turned upside down once removed and stripped down, to remove the white plastic water pan , which then allows access to the guts of all the above parts- some critical seals only come with new assemblies, so you are buying that new part to get a new seal and ensure no new leaks from what you took apart.

Part arrived on time. Double checked it was the part I needed. I unclipped the old seal and snapped the new piece in place.

Replaced lower dish rack

Removed the middle basket and turned it upside down. Unplugged the spray arm from the middle basket. Snapped the new spray arm into the middle basket.
Installed middle basket into slides.
It works great. Great site for parts - reasonable prices too
