Thanks for this vid - replaced my dispenser in about 30 minutes. As many others have pointed out, be very careful when pushing the old dispenser from the housing as the stamped metal fins that hold it in place are effectively razor blades. Even with that in mind, I still managed to get a decent cut on my finger while removing the part. Wear gloves, take a few extra seconds and be safe!
Great instructions! Could never have attempted this without this video. A couple notes: On my Bosch model, the control panel is part of the door, so you have to remove all the screws before you can proceed. The dimes: you need five or six, not two. Be ready with extra change! A smaller flathead screwdriver is better for getting in there and releasing those tabs. I failed to disengage the tab on the left side and accidentally pulled the two wires out of the connector. Fortunately nothing broke and I was able to reseat them and continue, which took more time than the entire repair! If I had used a smaller screwdriver I could have released the tab successfully. Thank you!!
The Rinse-aid part of my SHEM63W Bosch dishwasher stopped dispensing. I bought a new unit on line, and just installed using this helpful video clip. I came up with a BETTER way to do one step: Instead of jamming coins and toothpicks alongside the metal clips all around the unit to disengage, I got an old credit card and used scissors to cut it into eight strips, each about 1/2 inch x 1 inch. I used a small screwdriver to force back the sheet metal retainers, and --once I could see a slot available, I inserted a chip of the plastic credit card. Each chip prevented the spring-steel retainer from re-engaging. Shortly I had three plastic chips at the top, three on the bottom, and one on each side. Then I folded the door open a bit, so that no chips could end up inside. A simple POP! --and out came the unit. The eight plastic chips all fell out onto the floor at my feet. The video was very helpful. -- I hope others will find my comments above similarly helpful.
Just replaced mine using this guide, was pretty much perfect! My coins flew into the dishwasher, but no harm done! Tested it and perfect, no more sticky knifes and forks.
Worked pretty much as explained. Took me 30 minutes. Note: 1) my model had 3 clips on the bottom of the dispenser, not just the top and sides shown in the video and 2) my model required all 12 screws to be removed before the panel came off and there was no separate "control panel" that needed to be disconnected. Thanks so much.
Thanks for an excellent video. I was able to change the part out. One thing, the first plug he disconnected with the 3 yellow wires has a locking plate (black) which slides back and forth unlike the other connectors which use essentially a plastic hook. My locking plate was frozen in place (probably due to age), so I got it to slide and release by using an ice pick to hold it down and move it back. I put no pressure on the wiring plug. Afterward sliding it back, the wiring plug was then released. I used plastic bread bag closer-tabs instead of dimes but everything went into place. Your instructions were very clear.
This video is excellent - thank you. The trick with the coins was awesome - worked like a charm. Thanks for an invaluable resource. Your instructions were very clear and well presented, which made me feel confident with what I was doing.
Job done with help of this video. Most challenging part was understanding what tabs to press to remove wires. Also the dime trick is important….but there are 6 tabs to hold open with the dimes and I needed a dime for each one….get 6 dimes rather than 2 .
OK guys, I don't know when this was made but now the dispenser has three latches along the top so you need five dimes. Do not remove the top screws, there is no need to remove the control panel or the door latch wires, the wires are long enough you just unplug from the dispenser. The side foam strips are difficult to hold in place so I just put some double sided tape on the angled sides, works excellent. The video is an excellent start.
Very helpful video! The spacers got me - took a while to figure out where they go (both fell off when I pulled the outer door off and I didn't see where they were originally attached). You can see them back on at 2:22 in the video on both sides near the hinges.
Thank you so much! I was able to replace mine by watching the video. My new part had a small red plastic part that didn’t match the “key” to my left wire. I traded out the little black part from my old one and it worked.
Thank you for this tutorial! Very helpful installing the part I ordered from you. A couple of things were slightly different, like wire colors, but overall it was incredibly helpful!
Great video helped me with exactly what I needed. My dishwasher was a different model then the one shown here but similar enough I was able to figure it out and I was able to use the part finder on their website to find the correct soap dispenser I needed to match my model number.
Rinse aid dispenser had stopped working, kept filling with water. With the help of this video I replaced the unit in about 30-minutes. Hardest part was getting the door panel off - took more force than expected so I was probably doing it wrong...
Thank you very much for the video. Had some fun with it but managed in the end. Hopefully no more dispenser leaks. Actually managed to find out where the spacers were meant to go :-)
@@appliancepartspros - thanks for replying. The BOSCH SGS4002AU20 SGS4002AU20 DETERGENT COMPARTMENT ASSY won't close and click into place to hold a washing tablet.
Found a much simpler method to extract and flush the dispenser without taking anything apart. My issue was someone put a small bottle of Dawn detergent in the bin where we keep the rinse aid. (No one owned up to it, so it must have been the cat ; )) I grabbed it and started filling the dispenser and noticing it seemed too thick and stopped! Now, I knew this would be a huge bubbling mess if the cycle was started, so I didn't. Went to google, finding the dispenser should be removed and flushed or replaced. I did not want to disassemble the door panels and possibly cause any issues. Slept on it and brainstormed, when an idea came to mind. I had a huge 60cc medical syringe with an extension large tube to attach or a small hose. I sucked out the contents of dispenser into a drunk (M/T) beer bottle, then began filling the dispenser back up using fresh water. This flushing was repeated many times until all the sudsing bubbles no longer rose. Worked like a charm... Ingenious... Happy Happy Happy! : c )
If changing out the dispenser did not solve the problem of the dishwasher dispensing the soap during the wash what could be the next thing I could look into fixing?
@@appliancepartspros Thanks. Is there a place to normally find tech sheets? I never knew about them beforehand. And is the diagnostic just some sort of key presses to enter a diagnostics mode and then you press a key for it to run and then wait for it to show you some indicator that is on the tech sheet to tell you what the fault is?
The tech sheet could be located behind the kickplate at the bottom under the door. It could be on the side of the unit, or behind the control panel. And it should have the instructions for running diagnostics and how to read the codes you get.
Liquid soap! Or if you don't have that, some type of lubricant, like vaseline works ( I used vaseline). Just to help get the rubber part into the hole, because if it's dry and tight, it might not slide in easily.

I needed 5 dimes. (I was unable to keep them from falling inside, but they were very easy to remove).

When did you get your washer? I'd like not to remove the control panel...
This is a great video and was easy to follow. I was able to change the part in about 30 minutes and my dishwasher is up and running again! Thanks!

rocketman7sam got me as well and I’m still not sure ....still have one left in my tool box😂
Clear and concise instructions. A great example for others to follow.
Thank you! So glad the video was helpful!
The tip with the dimes was especially helpful - though, since we don't have dimes in the UK, I used washers. Thank you.

An unsung hero, if ever there was one 👏
I am in love with you all! Making life so easy (and cheaper)
Glad we could help!
@4:50 you may want to fix the loose outlet cover before plugging the unit back in.
Great job, straight forward and easy to follow instructions. Well done.
Excellent instructional video. Thank you! :)
Thank you! Just what I needed to change out my dispenser
Thank you very much for your expert assistance. Very informative and to the point video.
Excellent video, Simon - Thank You!!!
Thank you so much for the helpful video, got mine replaced and I really appreciate it!

Good video.
Isn't the most likely cause of the fault the BOSCH SGS4002AU20 Actuator?
What is going on with your dishwasher?
@@appliancepartspros - thanks for replying.
The BOSCH SGS4002AU20 SGS4002AU20 DETERGENT COMPARTMENT ASSY
won't close and click into place to hold a washing tablet.
The dimes were a good trick.
Not sure how I would have gotten the old one out, without it.
We’re trying to install it right now and the yellow plug on the left won’t slide in. Thoughts? Thanks
What model number are you working with?
On my washer the rinse dispenser has never released rinse aid. Would this part replacement fix that on an SHX5ER55?

Thank you. You will need to locate the tech sheet on your unit and run a diagnostic test to determine which part is the issue.

Great instructions but new gasket didn't work for me. The rinse aid is still leaking.
Good grief. Did you have to remove the control panel?
@@bottomlineupfront6209 removed front door ... too less than 39 minute
Did you ever find a solution to the leaking?
@JustinHall1976 nope.
Could this be the cause of the E19 code on my series 900 machine?
What is your model number?
Perfect! Thank you Simon
i broke the yellow wire going into the soleniod where can i buy that ?
What is the model number of your dishwasher?
Where do the spacers go? Thru another video I see they clip on to the metal below. Sorry I can’t attach a photo.
One of my wire harnesses/connectors came undone while disconnecting the old dispenser. Is there a way to repair this? How can I get a replacement?
You guys are heroes!
Very helpful, Thanks!
Thanks for share this video
Did you say liquid salt to the seal?
Liquid soap! Or if you don't have that, some type of lubricant, like vaseline works ( I used vaseline). Just to help get the rubber part into the hole, because if it's dry and tight, it might not slide in easily.
Thanks sir!!!
You never showed how to remove the yellow wire below the white wire. Having an issue removing that wire.
Thanks for the video!
You're welcome!
THANK YOU!!!!!
You are welcome!
now mine won't turn on?
Ever resolve this? Exact same issue! Flipped breaker. Took apart and tried again. Still no power.
terrific video, thank you
