Easy Steps to Reset Your Bosch Dishwasher

February 3, 2023

Have you ever had any issues with your dishwasher? Sometimes it can feel easier to call a technician or simply purchase a new dishwasher when you start having issues, however, troubleshooting might be easier than you think.

A quick fix to many common dishwasher issues can be resetting the dishwasher itself. Many dishwashers can easily be reset through a control panel.

Why Reset Your Dishwasher?

Why exactly would you ever need to reset your dishwasher? In some simpler cases, you could have set your dishwasher with a delay clean and you just want to cancel that out.

Sometimes your dishwasher can end up accidentally being locked or put into sleep mode. If you were unaware of these options being available on your dishwasher you could mistake the machine for being broken.

Taking the time to reset your dishwasher before making a call to a repair technician or even going out and buying a new dishwasher could save you time and money.

Easy Steps to Reset Your Bosch Dishwasher

Resetting your dishwasher can seem complicated, but here are some simple steps to follow to reset your Bosch dishwasher.

  1. Most Bosch dishwashers have a Start button that doubles as a reset button and will sometimes also be labeled “reset.” Press and hold this button for at least 3 seconds until you see the screen reset.
  2. If your dishwasher was running, you should hear the dishwasher start draining.
  3. If this doesn’t work, or you can’t locate a reset button on your dishwasher or by referencing your owner’s manual, unplug your dishwasher from its power supply for at least one minute.

Once the dishwasher is reset you can change the settings if they were wrong and restart. Or you can just leave the dishwasher until you are ready to use it again.

If resetting your machine does not solve the issues you are having it is best to call a repair technician that works on Bosch dishwashers.

Buying a New Dishwasher

If you decide you want to purchase a new dishwasher rather than spend the money on repairs, Howard’s has a great selection of Bosch dishwashers that we know you will love.

We recommend purchasing a new dishwasher if your current one is dated or lacks energy-efficient features. New models are often cheaper to run, more water efficient, and clean better.
