Description
Restore proper detergent dispensing to your Bosch, Thermador, or Gaggenau dishwasher with the Bosch 00263088 Detergent Dispenser Assembly. This genuine OEM unit controls the release of detergent during the wash phase. If the dispenser door fails to open, remains locked, or if the cycle stalls, this assembly is likely at fault. The unit is robustly constructed and designed for a precise fit within the inner door panel.
Features & Benefits:
- Accurate Dispensing: Controls the timed release of detergent for effective cleaning.
- Complete Assembly: Includes the dispenser cup, the internal latch mechanism (wax motor/switch), and the main housing.
- OEM Quality: Ensures reliable performance and compatibility with high-end Bosch appliances.
- DIY Repairable: Replacement is generally manageable with basic tools after accessing the inner door panel.
Common Symptoms That Indicate Replacement:
