Bosch Dishwasher (Want to change motherboard) Inherited it with flat

Hi

Dishwasher settings wash but it never stops, is cold only for hours and they don't drain because I have turn turn it off after such a waste of time and energy .The rinse does rinse and drain and stop on its own.

I've seen a few videos of people changing out old motherboards and replacing with a new part. They seem expensive on ebay/amazon but are not the same as my model.

Does anyone know from the photos what the model is?
Does anyone then know where to source parts?

    There's normally a sticker on the side of the door that will give you the model number, much easier than looking at pictures given many look the same inside and some will use common parts for some elements but different parts for others.

    Nothing, just a "BOSCH recomends calgon" sticker name

    Always possible they decided to remove the stickers, though they are hard to get off, in which case good luck in trying to find your needle.

    Have you tried the side? On mine it's to the left of that sticker (although mine says finish) just about level with the bottom of the instrument panel/door release

    Mine is engraved on the top of the door.

    The engraving is practically invisible, until you shine a torch from the side, as shown in the video below. Then the details 'miraculously' appear.

    https://www.espares.co.uk/product/es760360/bosch-dishwasher-control-module - Other suppliers may be able to offer the part at a lower cost. Bosch part number 0049-0486 (assuming I got the right list).

    What a rinse, may as well just be a POS polluter then and buy a whole new machine. Something is definitely wrong with pricing items like that in regards to the environmental impact

    Of course the module may not be the problem, then that is £170 wasted.
    Tall, dark & handsome. Well two out of three ain't bad.

    Now you've got this far, OpolE, could you try opening up that module? Remove it fully from the machine first - and take lots of photos of the connectors...
    Obvs, power completely cut from the DW.
    And, do you have a soldering iron? Know anyone who has?
